2. DEFINITION OF JSA
A job hazard analysis is a technique that focuses on job
tasks as a way to identify and mitigate hazards before they
occur.
It focuses on the relationship between the worker, the task,
the tools, and the work environment.
4. SELECTION OF JOBS
Jobs with the highest injury or illness rates
Jobs with the potential to cause severe or disabling
injuries or illness, even if there is no history of
previous accidents
Jobs in which one simple human error could lead to
a severe accident or injury
Jobs that are new to your operation or have undergone
changes in processes and procedures
Jobs complex enough to require written instructions.
9. JSA Team
Who is involved in the JSA process?
1. Area In-charge / Section Head or appropriate trained
designate – JSA Leader
2. Concerned Operation Engineer
3. Area Maintenance Engineer
4. Project Engineer (if required)
5. Maintenance Technicians (Contract / permanent)
Completed prior to the start of any job/work
task and discussed with personnel completing
the work and personnel in the work area.
10. Survey The Job Site Conditions
Slip, trip & fall hazards. Moving machinery.
Illumination. Noise.
Work at elevations. Chemicals.
Airborne contaminants. Electricity.
PPE requirements. Confined spaces.
Material handling
11. Breakdown Job Into Steps
Order of occurrence.
Avoid too much detail.
Avoid generalizing or
combining steps.
12. Identify The Hazards
List all possible hazards
for each step.
Do not omit possible
hazards by
rationalizing
probability.
13. Develop Controls
Engineering controls
Administrative controls
Work Practices
Personal Protective Equipment
14. Engineering Controls
Engineering controls eliminate exposure to the hazard by:
Isolating the hazard from the employee.
Improving (redesign) work area layout.
Substituting less hazardous product.
Modifying equipment.
15. Administrative Controls
Administrative controls reduce employee exposure to a
hazard by:
Reducing the frequency of performing the hazardous
task.
Rotating employees to reduce exposure time.
Training employees to recognize hazards and employ
safety practices.
16. Work Practices
Work practice controls include:
Workplace rules
Safe & healthful work practices
Personal hygiene
Housekeeping and maintenance
Procedures for specific operations and maintenance
17. Personal Protective Equipment
OSHA requires employers to provide PPE to reduce
employee exposure to hazards when engineering and
administrative controls are not feasible or effective
PPE alone should not be relied on to protect against
hazards; other uses include guards, engineering
controls, and sound manufacturing practices.
