What is an FLRA?• A tactical weapon to counteract
the negative occurrences that affect a risk and loss prevention strategy.
• It is a hazard identification and control plan- your work plan for safety.
• An Administrative Control.• Conducted in the field and
covers your tasks for the day.• Complements the JHA.

FLRA Process (Identify)• Do I clearly understand my
task? • Am I physically and mentally
prepared to do the task? • What could go wrong? • Is there a risk to others or me? • What can change and create a
new risk? • Could other crews, workers, or
conditions pose risks to me?

FLRA Process (Assess)
• How bad could this be? What would the consequence(s) be?
• How likely is it to happen?

FLRA Process (Control)
• What can I do to control the hazard?
• Are permits, written practices, procedures, etc. required?
• Will the control affect another part of the task?
• Do I need to tell anyone else? • Are emergency response plans
required? • Who should I contact for help?

Why do we need to revisit them?
