The analysis should be used during daily inspections to ensure the implementation and effectiveness of the activity's safety and health controls. For work with fall hazards, including fall hazards associated with scaffold erection and removal, identify the appropriate fall arrest systems. For work with materials handling equipment, address safeguarding measures related to materials handling equipment. For work requiring excavations, include requirements for safeguarding excavations.

c. The analysis should be used during daily inspections to ensure the implementation and effectiveness of the activity's safety and health controls.

d. The AHA list will be reviewed periodically (at least monthly) at the Contractor supervisory safety meeting and updated as necessary when procedures, scheduling, or hazards change.
