Your JHA, with the standard behind every line
Fill in the JHA your company already uses. For every hazard you call out, Blue appends the OSHA, MSHA or company standard that applies, with the control and PPE it requires.
Example JHA · Construction
“Unprotected edge at fourteen feet. No guardrail.”
- Standard
- 29 CFR 1926.501(b)(1)
- Requirement
- Fall protection at an unprotected side or edge 6 ft or more above a lower level.
- Control
- Guardrail, safety net, or personal fall arrest system.
- PPE
- If personal fall arrest is selected: a full-body harness with a suitable connecting system and anchorage.

Keep your JHA. We add the standards.
Your safety team already built the form. Airwave works inside it.
- Send us the JHA you use today. A PDF, a spreadsheet, a screenshot, a photo of the paper form.
- Every question and every branch stays, from ladders to lockout/tagout to confined space.
- The same JHA at every site and every crew, with the same standards behind it.
- No JHA yet? Start with ours and make it yours.

Configured for the standards your work answers to
We configure your workspace for the regulations and standards your program follows. Blue cites them by section, the way your safety manager would.
- Federal regulations. OSHA general industry (1910) and construction (1926), MSHA for mining, FMCSA for fleet inspections, and the rules for marine terminals and offshore work.
- The standards for your trade. Electrical, fire protection, elevators, aerial lifts, cranes, forklifts, loading docks, refrigeration, standby power, boilers.
- Canada. Provincial OHS regulations and the CSA standards that go with them.
- Your own rule book. The corporate safety manual, site rules, and your customer's site requirements. Where your rule goes beyond the regulation, both are cited.
Configured for the standards your program follows, using the reference material you provide.
Every hazard gets its citation
Call out the hazard, or confirm one Blue flagged. Blue matches it to the standard that applies and writes it into the JHA line.
- You name the hazard.
“Unprotected edge at fourteen feet.”
- Blue finds the standard
your workspace is configured for.
- It appends four things to the line:
the citation, what the standard requires in plain words, the control, and the PPE.
- It links to the source,
so anyone reviewing the JHA can open the exact section.
Example inspection · Mining
Guard missing on conveyor tail pulley
Standard30 CFR 56.14107(a) Requirement
Guard moving machine parts that can cause injury, including tail pulleys.
Check applicabilityThis example assumes the pulley is within reach of a walking or working surface. Paragraph (b) provides an exception for exposed moving parts at least seven feet away.
Blue cites. You decide.
No match? Blue says so. It writes “no standard found” instead of guessing a citation.
Blue cites, you decide. The person doing the work signs the JHA.
Fill it in like any checklist
The JHA gets done on the walk, not in the truck afterward.
- Say what you see. “Ladder checked. Fall protection reviewed. Panel locked out.” Each answer lands on its question, with its standard.
- Snap a photo on the items that need one.
- New to the job? Blue walks you through each question and reads back the standard when you ask.
- Know it cold? Just do it. Blue tells you what you missed before you submit.

No photo flags added to the example JHA.
Object detection catches what's easy to miss
- Blue scans your photos and video for hazards: missing PPE, unmarked cords, ladders, open edges.
- Your safety team sets the list of what to look for.
- You make the call. A flagged hazard goes into the JHA when you confirm it, and gets its citation like any other line.
A JHA your safety team can stand behind
- Every line shows the hazard, the standard, the control, the PPE and a timestamped photo.
- Submitted before the work starts, then sent to your safety system, your FSM or the GC the same day.
- Read it, fix anything Blue got wrong, then submit it.

Only you turn them on. No GPS, no live stream. Cameras not allowed? Use voice only.
Control: who sees whatQuestions safety teams ask
Does Blue decide whether the job is safe?
No. Blue cites the standard and the control. The person doing the work, and your safety team, make the call.
Which standards can it cite?
The ones your workspace is configured for: federal regulations, your trade’s standards, provincial rules, and your own safety manual.
What if nothing matches?
Blue says no standard was found instead of guessing a citation.
We’re regulated by MSHA, not OSHA.
We configure your workspace for MSHA, and Blue cites it instead.
Our company rules are stricter than OSHA.
Your safety manual goes into the configuration. Where it goes beyond the regulation, both are cited.
Can the tech hear the standard on the job?
Yes. Ask Blue and it reads the requirement back through the glasses.
What about sites that ban cameras?
Fill the JHA by voice, or on the phone where it’s allowed.
“Whether it’s a safety issue or just the daily grind, now there’s a real record of what we do out here. That changes everything.”
