Pipeline Pressure Testing Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA)

Site safety is usually the task of the safety and occupational health department in a company, and performing a hazard analysis using an AHA form can reduce the risk of accidents to the employees, and lead to a safer work environment for the company. The Pipeline Pressure Testing Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) app allows the safety officer to assess various activities specific to pipeline pressure testing, and ensure that any applicable personal protective equipment or monitoring devices are available. Some of the potential hazards in this industry include slips, trips, and falls in the work area, and in this instance, the safety practices would include ensuring that the area has walkways clear of equipment, tools, debris, and other materials and that any obstructions are marked or barricaded. Taking these simple steps can make this one particular area of potential hazard less of a risk, and hence improve the overall safety of the employees. Other dangers in the industry include sharp objects, heavy equipment handling, pressurized water, and pressurized lines. Having such work practice controls and adhering to the AHA requirements are crucial steps in workplace safety, and this app can be of great help in ensuring safety at work.
