JHA Templates Brisbane | Job Hazard Analysis Forms QLD | WHS Compliant
Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) is a critical task-based risk assessment method used to identify potential hazards before starting a job. In Queensland, JHAs are a practical tool to meet the duty of care under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (Qld), particularly in high-risk construction, maintenance, and field service operations.
​
StaySafe Consultants provides editable, WHS-compliant JHA templates designed specifically for Brisbane and QLD-based businesses. Our JHA forms are used across building sites, infrastructure projects, civil works, and by contractors who need compliant safety documentation for audits, tender submissions, or on-site risk control.
Job Safety Analysis in Queensland
Keeping records of the protocols, regulations, methods, and reports regarding safety in the workplace is legally required. Engaging a qualified health and safety consultant can make this process extremely streamlined.
A Job Safety Analysis reflects risk assessment evaluations, which clearly identify all safety and health risks associated with specific jobs. These types of records are essential tools when you’re planning for and responding to various workplace threats and hazards. They also create and maintain an awareness of risks and the specific people who could be affected by those hazards.

A Job Safety Analysis (JSA)
A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is essential in a workplace for health and safety because it acts like a safety checklist. It helps in three main ways:

Identifies Dangers
Before anyone starts a task, a JSA goes through each step of the job and finds potential hazards. This is like looking around your house to find anything that might cause an accident, like a wet floor or a loose rug.
Prevents Accidents
Once it knows the risks, the JSA suggests ways to make the job safer. This is like cleaning up that wet floor or fixing the loose rug so no one trips and falls.
Keeps Everyone Informed
It makes sure everyone knows about the dangers and how to avoid them. It's like telling everyone in the house to be careful around the wet floor.
