What information do I need to submit a High Hazard Work Notification?

To create a new High Hazard Work Notification, you will require the following information:

The Type of High Hazard Work – The notification system has 7 categories of high hazard work that you can choose from:

  • ⁠Quarry, Crushing, or Blasting
  • ⁠Powerline Construction or Maintenance
  • ⁠Earthworks, Excavation, or Road Construction
  • Sandblasting
  • Demolition or Renovation
  • Commercial or Residential Construction
  • ⁠Radiation

You will also be required to enter a sub type of high hazard work, which will depend on the primary type of high hazard work that you have selected.

Project Details – You will be required to provide a description of the work you are conducting, which will include a list of high hazard work activities taking place.

Work location or GPS Coordinates – You will need to enter the work site address, as well as site specific details about the location. If there is no known building address, please use GPS coordinates.

Start and end date for the project – you will be required to enter the start date and end date of the project. Please remember that you must have an active High Hazard Work Notification during the entirety of the project. If your project is delayed, you will be able to edit the end date as needed. You will receive an e-mail reminder five days before the reported end date of the project. After the closure of your project, you will not be able to make changes.

Work site owner contact information – You will be required to enter the name and contact information for the individual in charge of your project. This should either be the supervisor or the person in charge of the work site.

Once you have submitted your new High Hazard Work Notification, you will receive an email confirmation that the WSCC received your notification. On your project’s start date, post the email in a visible space (a safety bulletin board, a site entry area, etc.).

Submitting a High Hazard Work Notification may lead to a site inspection, and failure to provide proof of an active High Hazard Work Notification could result in project delays.
