Overview
What this RAVS document does
Hazard identification is the foundation of every safety program, so hiring clients look closely at this element in ISNetworld. They want to see that a contractor finds hazards before work starts, rates the risk consistently, and controls each hazard through a clear hierarchy rather than relying on personal protective equipment alone.
This document states your company's hazard identification and risk control process in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: how formal and field-level hazard assessments are completed, how risk is rated, how controls follow the hierarchy of elimination, engineering, administration, and PPE, and how assessments are reviewed. Each point ties back to Part 2 of the Alberta OHS Code. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a hazard assessment answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For the hazard identification and risk control element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written hazard identification and risk control process with a clear purpose and scope
- Formal hazard assessments for each job, and field-level assessments before a task
- A consistent method for rating risk by severity and likelihood
- Controls applied through the hierarchy: elimination, engineering, administration, then PPE
- How workers participate in identifying hazards
- How assessments are reviewed and revised when work changes

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for Alberta contractors whose hiring clients require the hazard identification and risk control element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. Because hazard assessment underpins every safety program, the element is required across construction, oil and gas, utilities, manufacturing, transportation, and the trades. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags hazard identification, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the hazard assessment review the first time
- Use the Alberta version. The document is written to Part 2 of the Alberta OHS Code, the framework ISNetworld reviewers expect for Alberta work.
- Show both formal and field-level assessments. Reviewers want to see formal assessments for each job and a field-level assessment before a task. A document that has only one reads as incomplete.
- Keep your assessments current. The RAVS states that assessments are reviewed when work changes. Keep them dated and updated - a hiring client audit will check.
