Conducting An Effective JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS
JHA Key Terms • What is a Job? • Work or task • What’s a Hazard? • Danger or chance event.
JHA Key Terms • What’s an Exposure? • Contact, effect, or influence. • What is Analysis? • Breaking down the whole into separate parts.
JHA Purpose • Taking a job or task and breaking it down into steps to identify hazards and correct that may cause injury to employees. • Effective JHA’s help the employer recognize and control hazards and exposures in the workplace.
Form Teams • All are team leaders • All are spokesperson • Everyone is a recorder
How might the employee’s perception of a “hazard” differ from that of the employer or supervisor (or safety person)? • Why is it important to involve the employee? • Why do new workers have a higher rate of disabling claims. • Why is a JHA more effective than walk-around inspections in reducing accidents in the workplace?
Job Hazard Analysis Select the job to be analyzed Watch the work being done Break the job down into steps/tasks Describe the hazards in each step of the task Develop Control Measures Develop and Implement Safe Operating Procedures Evaluate and improve
1. Select the job to be analyzed Prioritize HIGH MEDIUM LOW
1. Select the job to be analyzed • OSHA 300 Log • Near Miss Log • Accident/Incident Reports • Workers’ Compensation Information
1. Select the job to be analyzed Determine Probability and Severity How hazardous is the job?
The chance that a given event will occur. Probability 1. Select the job to be analyzed
Probability 1. Select the job to be analyzed Can be determine based on the following: • The number of employees exposed; • The frequency and duration of exposure; • The proximity of employees to the danger zone; • Factors which require work under stress;
Probability 1. Select the job to be analyzed • Can be determine based on the following: • Lack of proper training and supervision or improper workplace design; or • Other factors which may significantly influence the degree of probability of an accident occurring.
1. Select the job to be analyzed • The probability rating is: • Low - If the factors considered indicate it would be unlikely that an accident could occur • Medium - If the factors considered indicate it would be likely that an accident could occur • High - If the factors considered indicate it would be very likely that an accident could occur
Severity 1. Select the job to be analyzed • The degree of injury or illness which is reasonably predictable.
Severity 1. Select the job to be analyzed SERIOUS HAZARDS: Could cause an accident or health hazard exposure resulting in serious physical harm. OTHER THAN SERIOUS HAZARDS: Lack the potential for causing serious physical harm, but could have a direct impact on employee safety and health.

4. Describe the hazards and consider potential accident in each step of the task
Identifying types of hazards • Acceleration • Toxic • Radiation • Pressure • Mechanical • Flammability/Fire • Biological • Workplace Violence • Explosive • Electrical Contact • Chemical Reaction
Identifying types of hazards Ergonomic Factors: • High Frequency • High Duration • High Force • Posture • Point of Operation • Mechanical Pressure • Vibration • Environmental Exposure
Accident Types • Struck-by • Struck-against • Contact-by • Contact-with • Fall-to-surface • Fall-to-below • Over-exertion: • Bodily reaction: • Over-exposure: • Caught-on • Caught-in • Caught-between

5. Develop Control Measures • Engineering controls • Safe Work Practices • Administrative Controls • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). The Hierarchy of Controls
Engineering Controls • Consist of substitution, isolation, ventilation, and equipment modification. • These controls focus on the source of the hazard, unlike other types of controls that generally focus on the employee exposed to the hazard. • The basic concept behind engineering controls is that, to the extent feasible, the work environment and the job itself should be designed to eliminate hazards or reduce exposure to hazards
Safe Work Practices • General workplace rules and other operation-specific rules • Respiratory Protection • Lockout/Tagout • Confined Space Entry • Hazard Communication • Blood borne Pathogens • Hearing Conservation
Administrative Controls • Measures aimed at reducing employee exposure to hazards • Providing variety in jobs • Adjusting work schedules and work pace • Providing recovery time • Modifying work practices • Ensuring regular housekeeping • Maintenance of work spaces, tools & equipment • Encouraging exercise Used in conjunction with other controls
Personal Protective Equipment • When exposure to hazards cannot be engineered completely out of normal operations or maintenance work, and when safe work practices and administrative controls cannot provide sufficient additional protection from exposure, personal protective clothing and/or equipment may be required.
