Field Level Hazard Assessment
The FLHA is filled in before work starts: job details, today's hazards and your own controls placed on the hierarchy of controls, plus critical-risk checks where the work calls for them. The crew signs on one phone, and the end-of-shift questions unlock once the shift is actually done.

Crew sign-off
After filing you land on the signing page. The crew starts from your direct reports or yesterday's crew; add a worker or a visitor. Hand the phone round: each person opens it full screen, answers their own checks and signs. The Supervisor (PIC) signs last, which closes it.
Where: FLHA → signing page
Who can: Crew, Lead Hand, Supervisor (PIC)
Missed the phone?
Anyone who missed it gets it in their own To do and signs on their own phone; after closing, that signature is marked late. Changing an open FLHA asks everyone to sign again and shows what changed.
Where: To do
Who can: Crew

Changes during the shift
On the filed FLHA, Add a change logs what changed — a new hazard and its control, scope, weather, crew, a stop-work — as a dated line under the signed FLHA. A new hazard goes to the supervisor to review and to the crew to tap Seen it. Checked — nothing changed is one tap.
Where: Filed FLHA → Add a change

With no signal
New FLHA works offline with the same four steps, including the crew reading the PDF and signing.
