  2. Job Hazard Analysis • A multi-step process designed to study and analyze a task or job, then break down that task into steps which provide a means of eliminating associated hazards

  3. Job Hazard Analysis Process Safety Observations + Recording of Detailed Information

  4. Job Hazard Analysis is a constantly evolving process which serves as a continual improvement tool

  5. JHA Implementation Process • Develop a Job List • Select a Method • Prepare the JHA Forms • Complete the JHA Forms

  6. Select the Jobs from a Comprehensive Job List • Jobs that have the potential for serious injury or fatality • Jobs that have consistently produced injuries, illnesses, and ergonomic claims • Jobs that have resulted in injures with cases of high severity • Jobs with a high frequency

  7. Analyze your trends and devise a game plan

  8. Method to Accomplish JHAs • One-on-One Observation • Group Discussion • Recall and Check • Absentee Method

  9. One-on-One • Positives: • More involvement and feedback • Facilitates learning • Improvements are readily identified and corrected • Negatives: • It may be difficult to catch jobs performed infrequently

  10. Group Discussion • Positives: • Encourages open discussion which generates ideas • Overall knowledge of group is utilized • Negatives: • Leader must be a good facilitator • Corrective measures are sometimes slow to implement

  11. Recall and Check • Positives: • Utilizes observer and worker • Negatives: • Observer must have a good memory • Accuracy depends on checking with several workers

  12. Absentee Method • JHAs are completed back at the office • This is the least desirable method

  13. JHA Form Exercise • There are a few forms to use. • Fit the form to your operation and the type of task.

  14. JHA Steps • List the Job Steps • Assign hazards to each Job Step • Devise corrective action, preventative methods, and/or safe procedures to complete job steps

  15. Basic Steps Column • Keep words to a minimum • 6 or fewer words • Ensure words are simply the “what” associated with the step • Keep the basic steps to a maximum of 10 steps

  16. Potential Hazards Column • Be sure to identify only legitimate hazards which are highly probable. • Identify hazards using codes such as SB (struck by), CO (caught on) etc.

  17. SB Struck By SA Struck Against CB Caught Between CW Contact With CBy Contact By CO Caught On CI Caught In FS Fall Same Level FB Fall to Below O Overexertion E Exposure Injury Identification

  18. Safe Procedures Column • Provide solutions to avoid potential hazards • Align the numbers in each column • Ensure the narrative is easy to read • Identify any special PPE • Keep the narrative specific and eliminate wordiness that may cause confusion

  19. JHA Role in 4 Key Hiring Practices • Interview Process: Preparation • Interview: Behavior-Based Questions • Job Descriptions • New Hire Orientation

  20. Interview Process: Preparation • May ask applicants about their ability to perform job functions • If medical examination is given, it must be job-related

  21. Interview: Behavior-Based Questions • Questions are based on a JHA of situations or decisions likely to be faced on the job • Can be a predictor of an attitude towards safety

  22. Actual Behavior-Based Questions • Assess three elements in the response: • Description of the situation • Action outcome • Outcome: positive or negative

  23. New Hire Orientation • Improves the quality of teaching the job procedures • Establishes realistic job expectations • Improves attitude on the job

  24. Any Questions?
