HIRA: Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment

by Stephen Hoey, from the Community

40+

Use this HIRA checklist to systematically identify operational and process hazards, evaluate severity and likelihood, calculate risk ratings, and define control measures. Record existing controls, add additional actions, and reassess residual risk to determine whether work can proceed. Includes sections for permits to work, COSHH, method statements, and sign-offs from assessors and supervisors. Ideal for construction and field operations but adaptable to any workplace.

Basic Risk Assessment Template HIRA
This basic risk assessment template helps teams identify hazards, evaluate likelihood and consequence, and choose effective control measures before starting work. It guides users through hazard and risk identification, initial and residual risk ratings, and a clear risk level with values. The checklist aligns with the hierarchy of controls including elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative, and PPE, and captures descriptions of controls and recommended additional measures. Sections include task details, safety team, signatures, and completion to support accountability and compliance across worksites and industries.

TCLH Risk Matrix for Risk Assessment
This risk matrix template helps teams perform consistent risk assessments across projects. Capture project details, list hazards, and evaluate likelihood and consequence to determine the risk level using clear E, H, M, and L codes. Add control measures to reduce risk and calculate residual risk after implementation. The template includes sections for recommendations and final sign-off to record outcomes and accountability. Ideal for mining and field operations, yet adaptable to broader workplace safety processes.

Template
Operational Risk Assessment Template
Use this operational risk assessment template to capture hazards by job step, evaluate intrinsic risk (consequence and likelihood), document existing controls, and calculate residual risk. Record risk IDs, outcomes, and scores, define future planned controls, and determine acceptability of risk. Includes evaluation and sign-off, WHS risk register updates, and communication to relevant teams to ensure ongoing monitoring and action tracking.

SE Hazard Assessment
This SE Hazard Assessment template helps teams identify hazards, score risk, and define effective control measures. Capture the hazard, assign an initial risk score, list control actions, and reassess the risk with controls in place. Use it to standardize hazard evaluations across sites, prioritize actions, and document residual risk. Ideal for construction and field operations, it supports consistent safety reviews and clear records for audits and compliance.
