Program Overview: What is Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA / JSA)?
Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment (HIRA / JSA) is Edstellar's instructor-led corporate program for HSE staff, supervisors, and frontline teams. It builds HIRA/JSA capability: hazard spotting and risk assessment before work starts. Every technique is practiced in guided exercises on realistic work scenarios.
The program runs as a live, instructor-led workshop across virtual, onsite, and hybrid formats. Participants walk through realistic work areas, identify hazards, score risks with matrices, and write job safety analysis documents in guided hands-on exercises. Instructors tailor scenarios to your sites and operations, and review every assessment, so skills transfer directly to the next shift.
Graduates spot hazards others miss, assess risk consistently, and plan controls before work begins. Your organization gains fewer incidents, stronger safety culture, and teams that own risk assessment.
The program closes with a full site assessment: each team runs HIRA and JSA across a realistic work area and presents the risk register and action plan. You keep the register, the JSA library, and the templates.

Turn Workplace Hazards Into Clear Risk Assessments and Actionable JSAs
Edstellar develops practical risk-assessment capability through realistic work-area and maintenance cases. Participants identify hazards, apply scoring methods, and break jobs into assessed steps before selecting controls. The final HIRA and JSA package is reviewed for complete hazard coverage, consistent reasoning, and an action plan with clear responsibility and follow-through.
- Step 01
Consult
We explore missed hazards, inconsistent risk scores, and weak job-safety documentation, establishing the sites, tasks, and supervisory or operational responsibilities participants work with.
- Step 02
Plan
Safety foundations and hazard identification lead into risk scoring, JSA development, and control planning before the complete site-assessment exercise and action review.
- Step 03
Align
We align workplace risk-assessment expertise with HSE, supervisor, and frontline roles, setting a shared scoring approach without assuming previous safety qualifications.
- Step 04
Customize
Sample work areas, incident histories, and maintenance tasks reflect familiar operations, allowing realistic hazard and control decisions without exposing workers to actual unsafe conditions.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants log hazards, score risks, and write job-safety analyses, receiving feedback on task breakdown, hazard specificity, control selection, and assignment of improvement actions.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the HIRA and JSA package for supported hazard identification, consistent scoring, controls linked to task risks, and a prioritized action plan with explicit owners.
