1. Screening – making a decision about whether a HIA is required.
   
   
2. Scoping – determining what areas the HIA will cover and establishing study parameters such as timeframe, resources etc.
   
   
3. Information collection – gathering information from agreed sources (such as community statistics, surveys, field investigations) to enable evaluation of health impacts.
   
   
4. Health impact evaluation – an assessment of the positive and negative health impacts of the condition under investigation.
   
   
5. Strategy identification – development of sustainable strategies to improve or eliminate negative health impacts and enhance positive impacts.
