What is the best JHA app for field crews?
The best JHA app is one a crew lead can finish in a few minutes before the work starts, on a phone, without signal. In ECSafety a crew lead opens the JHA, fills it by voice or touch, and uses Suggest Hazards to have Aura draft the likely hazards and controls for review before the crew signs.
What a good JHA app needs
If any of these is missing, the JHA goes back to being a clipboard exercise filled out after the fact.
- Fast enough to finish at the work face
- Offline mode for remote and underground work
- Hazard and control suggestions the crew lead reviews and edits
- Crew sign-off on the device
- Languages your crews actually speak
How ECSafety does it
JHAs, JSAs, and pre-task plans are Smart Forms. Aura pre-fills what it can from the site and task, the crew lead reviews the suggested hazards, and every submission gets an Aura compliance review. Managers see every JHA across their sites.
Common questions
- Can subcontractors fill JHAs?
- Yes. Guest Seats ($5 per user per month) can submit JHAs and other assigned forms, up to 20 form fills a month.
- Does Aura write the JHA for the crew?
- Aura suggests hazards and controls. The crew lead reviews, edits, and submits. A person stays responsible for the hazard assessment.
