Introduction
Purpose
This instruction describes how to comply with Horizon Power requirements for site hazard identification.
The objective is to create a safe working environment by systematically identifying and controlling hazards.
Scope
Controlling and recording hazards is a legal requirement. This instruction applies to any work performed on a Horizon Power construction site.
Horizon Power employees must use the Job Risk Assessment (JRA) and any applicable Safe Work Methods Statement (SWMS).
JRA* a site specific hazard management form that must be filled out at the start of each task on a Horizon Power construction site and
amended if the task or site conditions change.
SWMS* generic, task-specific, pre-filled hazard identification sheets that must be used for high risk tasks.
a JRA must be filled out as well, in order to capture the site-specific risks.
Contractors and subcontractors may use:
the JRA and any applicable SWMS; or
contractor supplied equivalents.
*
For the rest of this instruction, we refer only to the hazard management forms used by Horizon Power, i.e. JRA and SWMS.
If you are a contractor and choose to use an equivalent process, replace JRA or SWMS with the name of the form you use in its place.
Instructions
The on-site person responsible for the work must follow the hazard identification process before, during and after the work.
The basic hazard management approach is:

Planned work
Complete the following before departing to the construction site.
o
Refer to the work parcel and note down any hazards identified during the development stage.
If the job involves any high risk tasks, select the applicable SWMS.
If there is no SWMS for that high risk task, contact your formal leader to determine the appropriate procedure.
If there will be a safety observer for the task, they must familiarise themselves with the applicable SWMS.
Unplanned work
o
Work resulting from such things as emergencies may require an immediate response to identified hazards. In these situations, it is
acceptable to conduct the hazard identification process without immediately completing a JRA. However, a JRA must be completed
without delay when the site has been made safe.
If there is a SWMS for the task, the JRA only needs to record the hazards and controls that are specific to the site and are not identified
in the SWMS.
Where necessary, update the form during the task. This includes:
-
having any new personnel to the site sign onto the JRA;
assessing the possible hazards created when any new equipment / plant is introduced to the site and then determining the
appropriate controls.
In the event of an unexpected hazard, it is acceptable to conduct the hazard identification process without immediately updating the JRA.
However, a JRA must be completed without delay when the site has been made safe.

Uncontrolled when printed
The person responsible for the construction site must confirm that roles and responsibilities are delegated and understood before the work
begins.
When new members of staff or plant arrive on the construction site, review, amend and sign onto the form to identify the possible hazards this
may create
Review the job
Conduct a debriefing to discuss how well the work went and record the details of any improvements identified during the work.
File the JRA with the job parcel.
