What is Hazard? 

Anything that could potentially be a risk to your workforce is classified as a Hazard within Blerter. When you create new Hazards notifications are sent and the Hazards is added to the Check-in screen (based on what setting you choose) to make sure everyone on your project is aware of these potential risks and knows how to stay safe.

Hazards can be created in the planning stage, and you can then modify the Tasks to meet your best practices or you Hazard Management processes.
