What is Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment (HIRA)?

⚠️ HIRA is a systematic process to find potential hazards on a construction site and evaluate the risks they pose to workers and the project.

Key Steps in HIRA:

  • Hazard Identification:
    Spot anything that could cause harm — like falling objects, electrical risks, machinery, or unsafe working conditions.
  • Risk Assessment:
    Analyze how likely the hazard is to cause harm and how severe the impact could be.
  • Risk Control:
    Decide on measures to eliminate or reduce risks (like safety gear, training, barriers).
  • Documentation:
    Record all hazards, risk levels, and control measures in a HIRA report for ongoing safety management.

HIRA helps prevent accidents, injuries, and project delays by proactively managing site safety.
