Job Hazard Analysis for HVAC
The Job Hazard Analysis workflow supports HVAC contractors by addressing risks before equipment set, duct install, or startup. Crews assess lifting and rigging plans, electrical lockout needs, sharp edge exposure, chemical handling for refrigerants, and confined space entries. The checklist records controls, PPE, ventilation, and permit requirements. Supervisors verify access routes, fall protection, and housekeeping. Findings are reviewed in the morning meeting so responsibilities are clear. Standardization reduces incidents, limits warranty risk, and protects margins. Clients gain confidence in safe, efficient installations performed by accountable teams.
