1.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The Hazard Assessment and Safety Action Plan (HASAP) is a core element of the Jacobs HSE Program
(ref. JCSOP 350) and defines the project-level HSE planning for projects and operations with field
activities. The HASAP may also be referred to as the project or site safety plan. Project-level HSE
planning should be accomplished as an integral part of the overall project planning process.
The primary goal of the HASAP is to identify hazards associated with project work activities and to
identify controls to mitigate the risk associated with those hazards. In addition, the HASAP defines the
HSE program elements required to accomplish field activities in a safe and environmentally sound
manner and establishes the strategies and methods for their implementation.
This procedure applies to all company projects and operations with field activities performed by company
personnel, subcontractors, or other contractors when Jacobs is implementing the HSE program. As of
the effective date of this revision, this HASAP procedure applies to all new projects and operations and
updates to existing HASAPs.
Refer to CHSEP-350-1.4, Office HSE Management, for HSE planning related to the office environments.

2.0 RESPONSIBILITIES
General responsibilities for HSE Program implementation are stated in CHSEP-350-1.5. Additional
management, staff, employee, and subcontractor responsibilities that address duties specific to this topic
are stated in this procedure.
2.1 Project Manager
The Project Manager shall ensure that:
The appropriate level of HSE planning and reviews are accomplished and that a HASAP or
equivalent plan is developed for the project prior to the start of any field activities;
The HASAP is reviewed during the project review process;
The appropriate resources, including expertise, are provided to complete the HSE planning
appropriate for the project; and
The HASAP is used and updated throughout the life of the project.
For projects involving turnaround or shut-down work, the Project Manager shall assure that a Turn-
around HSE Readiness Review (see CHSEP-350-1.2) has been conducted and that each program
element has been classified as acceptable, needs improvement, unacceptable, or not applicable.
2.2 HSE Manager
The HSE manager shall support the overall project HSE process and shall assist the Project Manager in
the development of and implementation of the HASAP.

The following general requirements shall apply to project HSE planning and to the development and
updating of all HASAPs, regardless of the method of documentation. The HASAP shall be:
Completed prior to mobilization;
A collaborative effort between operations and HSE personnel, and it shall delineate the plan that
will be used to accomplish the work in a safe and environmentally sound manner;
Written to reference applicable HSE procedures, regulations, standards, etc., but not to serve as
a collection of these requirements;
Reviewed and signed by the personnel specified in the HASAP as confirmation of hazard
assessment, planning, and agreement to the plan;
Reviewed and signed by the Designated Project Executive (DPE) or Manager of Projects (MOP)
for the project. If there are significant exceptions to Jacobs requirements stated herein, then the
HASAP will also require approval and signature of the Field Services or Regional Group Vice
President, as appropriate; and
Reviewed, updated, and approved annually or more frequently depending on project specific
factors such as a change in scope or phase of work activity (e.g., construction to start-up),
identification of new hazards or controls, implementation of new HSE strategies and methods, or
other significant changes.
Where appropriate, the HASAP shall address environmental requirements and other local HSE
requirements.
4.2 HSE Planning Requirements

4.2.1 HSE Program Management Roles and Responsibilities

Definition of HSE program management roles and responsibilities may vary significantly from project to
project depending on the scope of the project and the contractual relationships between involved parties.
The HSE management roles and responsibilities associated with a particular project will influence the
HSE program implemented for that project.
Two documents provide guidance for determination of the Jacobs project-specific HSE management
roles and responsibilities. These documents are Corporate directive Safety Management Roles and
Responsibilities, January 2006 and The Jacobs HSE Roles and Responsibilities Decision Tree.

ENVIRONMENT PROCEDURE (CHSEP)
DOCUMENT NO: PAGE:
HAZARD ASSESSMENT CHSEP-350-2.12 4 of 7
AND SAFETY ACTION PLAN REVISION & EFFECTIVE DATE:
Rev 0, 01-Dec-14

Corporate directive Safety Management Roles and Responsibilities, January 2006 provides
clarity and focus on areas of potential ambiguity with respect to HSE management roles and
responsibilities. Irrespective of our strict contractual responsibility for safety, we must always be
proactive in our safety leadership and take all appropriate actions mandated by our safety culture
to first and foremost safeguard our workers.
The Jacobs HSE Roles and Responsibilities Decision Tree, referenced in the corporate directive,
provides guidance as to how we execute different types of work. The decision tree is an
excellent tool for determining the position that should be taken with respect to safety
responsibility and safety program implementation. The result of the decision tree should be
clearly stated in the HASAP.

4.2.2 HSE Alignment

HSE planning shall incorporate a gap analysis among the client, Jacobs, subcontractors, and other
contractor programs in order to achieve alignment so that a single, site-specific HSE program can be
developed and implemented.
As determined by the Jacobs HSE Roles and Responsibilities Decision Tree, the Jacobs HSE program
elements shall take precedence and be used as the basis for the site-specific program.

4.2.3 Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment

HSE planning shall focus on the identification of hazards associated with the project activities,
assessment of the risk associated with those hazards, and the identification of controls to eliminate or
mitigate the risk to ensure the work can be performed in a safe manner.
Persons knowledgeable in the specific work activities, including the hazards, controls, and appropriate
work methods associated with those activities, shall be engaged in HSE planning.
In addition to input from knowledgeable personnel, include other resources, such as:
Lessons learned from previous projects of similar scope and complexity;
Applicable HSE Alerts and Advisories;
Incident data;
Client/owner health and safety plan; and
Client/owner provided procedures and work instructions.
The project team shall utilize a method for hazard identification and risk assessment that is appropriate
for the project scope and hazards.
A disciplined method for hazard identification and risk assessment is defined in CHSEP-350-2.22, Hazard
Analysis.

4.2.4 Health Hazard Evaluation

For projects involving activities that may pose potential health or environmental risks due to the nature of
the hazards (chemical, biological or radiological, or other), the process complexity relative to these
hazards, and scope of services (e.g., first line maintenance work involving line breaks), a Health Hazard
Evaluation (HHE) (ref. CHSEP-350-12.1) shall be performed concurrent with preparation of the HASAP.

4.2.5 Hazards
The HASAP shall identify both the physical and the health hazards that will have potential to cause
workplace injury, illness, and fatalities associated with the project. These hazards shall be a focus for
various HSE program elements including but not limited to the SPA (ref. CHSEP-350-2.16), SOR (ref.
CHSEP-350-2.17), and the SER (ref. CHSEP-350-2.2).
The specific strategies for providing on-going focus to these hazards shall be identified in the HASAP.

4.2.6 Occupied Facility Location

HSE planning shall address the locations of occupied facilities to ensure that the hazards and risks to
personnel are adequately addressed.
CHSEP-350-7.7, Occupied Facility Siting, or similar process shall be used to guide and document the
decision to locate occupied facilities in the hazard effect zone of explosive, flammable, combustible, toxic,
or physical hazards and/or processes.

4.2.7 Turnaround/Shutdown Work

HSE planning for projects involving turnaround and/or shutdown work shall utilize the Turnaround HSE
Readiness Review checklist in CHSEP-350-1.2. This checklist shall serve as a guide for ensuring that
HSE elements critical to turnaround/shutdown work have been considered.

4.2.8 Emergency Response Planning

Project specific emergency response planning shall be an element of the overall project HSE planning
effort and shall follow the requirements of CHSEP-350-2.11, Emergency Response Action Plan.
The emergency response plan shall be tailored to address appropriate geographic, local regulatory, and
line of business variations and shall be documented in the HASAP or as a separate document referenced
in the HASAP.

4.2.9 Project-Specific HSE Program

The HASAP shall define how each of the following core HSE program elements are to be implemented
on the project:
SPA, CHSEP-350-2.16;
SOR, CHSEP-350-2.17;
Accident and Incident Reporting and Investigation (CHSEP-350-5.1 and CHSEP-350-5.2);
SER, CHSEP-350-2.2; and
HSE Training, CHSEP-350-3.1
These core HSE elements shall be implemented in a manner that brings focus to the hazards and
controls identified during the HSE planning process as well as in subsequent activity and task-level
planning activities. Additional guidance on implementation of these core elements may be found in the
specific CHSEP for that element.

4.2.10 Project/Site-Specific Roles, Responsibilities, and Leadership Engagement

The HASAP shall define the specific roles and responsibilities for personnel at all levels. Specifically, the
expectations for management and supervision engagement in the HSE program shall be defined,
including the method for evaluating their engagement on a regular basis.

4.2.11 HSE Work Phase Checklist

The HSE Work Phase Checklist (ref. CHSEP-350-1.2 A4) can serve as a useful HSE planning tool as it
provides a list of key HSE elements or issues by project work phase.
4.3 Documentation
The HASAP shall document the results of the HSE planning effort. The level of detail associated with the
HASAP shall be appropriate for the scope and hazards of the project.
Regardless of the method of documentation, the Outline and Guide for HASAP Development, CHSEP-
350-2.12 A1, should be used to help ensure that the topics and issues that apply to the project are
considered. Additional topics, not covered in the outline and guide, shall be addressed as appropriate
based on project-specific hazards, client requirements, or other factors.
All documents required to support the completion of the HASAP, such as the HHE or site specific
procedures, etc, shall be linked electronically or clearly identified in the HASAP as an addendum
document, with revised updates, and location.
For US projects involving hazardous waste operations and for US projects covered under prevailing
hazardous waste regulations, a project Health and Safety Plan (HSP) shall be used as the means of
documenting the project HSE plan. Refer to CHSEP-350-7.3.1, Site Health, Safety, and Environment
Plans. In addition to addressing the specific requirements for hazardous waste operations, the site-
specific HSP shall also address all the elements of the HASAP.
4.4 Monitoring, Measuring, and Analysis
The project manager and HSE manager shall monitor the project HSE planning process via periodic
project review meetings, project milestone meetings, project planning sessions (including interactive
planning sessions), and other means as appropriate. This on-going monitoring shall help ensure that
HSE planning is being considered in all phases of the project and that the planning is appropriate to the
scope and hazards associated with the project.
The SER shall verify the completion, review, approval, and effective implementation of the HASAP and
the project/site-specific HSE program.
4.5 Improvement
Feedback from various sources including the SOR, SER, client surveys, and other sources shall be used
to improve the project HASAP.
Where appropriate, the project manager and HSE manager will revise the HASAP to incorporate new
information such as unrecognized work scope, new or unrecognized hazards, changes in HSE process
implementation and procedures, and other significant changes.
Where appropriate, these changes shall be communicated to the workforce via training or other
appropriate means.
