JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS

WITH TAKE TWO

 What is Job Safety Analysis?
A systematic method of identifying hazards &
control measures to safely perform a specific task.

• It is a PROACTIVE TOOL for planning

• It is a process of determining hazards

associated with an activity.

• And then create safe procedures to prevent

unwanted events / accidents / mishaps
 When To Conduct JSA– SOME EXAMPLES

• All non routine jobs which involves critical

activities having potential for serious injury and
/ or fatality.
• Confined space Entry
• Energy (Electrical Power, Compressor air,
Steam and oils etc.
• Working at heights
• Deviations from SHE procedures and SOP”s
• Rigging & Hoisting
• Hot work (flames / sparks)
• Case of safety system impairment
• E.g. Hydrant system out of use for maintenance
 Benefits of JSA
• Reduces Safety Incidents
• Involves teams from all levels in
organization

• Improves awareness of hazards and/or

identify new ones

• Ensures that the right “corrective and

control measures” are in place and reflected
in proper job procedures

• Continuously improves Safety Management

Systems and work environment
 Salient Features Of The JSA
With
TAKE 2 Standard
Systematic & Structured
Hazard identification
Implementing Controls

Applies to all employees, including

contract/contractor employees and
visitors who may be involved in the
activities.
The JSA Steps
Break the job down into the steps or
tasks performed while doing the job
 Example of Task Breakdown for PUMP
MAINTENANCE
• Isolate Electrically & Chemically
• Remove the suction and discharge
distance pieces & close valve
• Open the drain plug & drain the
pump & open the casing.
• Wash the pump completely.
• Dismantle & inspect the pump.
• Repairing & spare replacement.
• Assembling of the pump.
• Remove electrical & chemical
isolations
• Trial run
• Fix the pump guard
• Go to the pump
• Remove tools from box
• Isolate Electrically & Chemically
• Loosen the bolt, remove the suction and
discharge distance pieces & close valve
• Sit down, open the drain plug & drain the
pump.
• Open the casing and drain again.
• Wash the pump completely.
• Dismantle & inspect the pump.
• Repairing & spare replacement.
• Assemble the pump.
• Remove electrical & chemical isolations
• Trial run
• Fix the pump guard
Identify and list the hazards associated with each
task (do one task first, then another, etc.)
Identify Hazards in the task with respect
to

• Physical

• Ergonomical

• Chemical

• Environmental

• Biological
PHYSICAL HAZARDS
• Electrical,

• Radiation,

• Sound, vibration,

• Mechanical/machines,

• Falling (objects & people)

• Fire
ERGONOMICAL HAZARD
• Back injury

• Hand, wrist, arm, neck stress as a result

of computer use

• Uncomfortable positions which cause

stress to the muscles

• Injury due to over exersion

• Muscle tearing
CHEMICAL HAZARDS
• Liquids, Gasses, Solids

• Enter the body by means of :

• Swallowing (mouth)

• Absorbtion (skin)

• Inhaling (nose)
 ENVIRONMENTAL
HAZARDS
• Emissions

• Spills

• Products that pollute the earth

• Ground water

• Wastes
BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS
• Hepatitis,

• Hiv-infected

• Legionnaires disease

This is a highly specialized area, where

health care professionals should be
consulted

Hierarchy of Hazard Control
Most Effective •Elimination
•Substitution
•Engineering Controls
• Administration Controls
Least Effective • Personal Protection
SOME EXAMPLES OF EXISTING
CONTROLS

1. Safety Interlocks
2. Machine guarding
3. Special tools and equipment
4. Wearing PPE
5. Permit-to-work
6. Standard Operating Procedures
7. Standard Maintenance Procedures
8. Onsite-offsite emergency program /
Emergency response-evacuation
procedure
EXAMPLES OF ELIMINATION
1. Lockout equipment

2. Install blind /blank

3. Modify process to eliminate need

for hazardous activity (e.g auto
sampling)

4. Fully automate process

 EXAMPLES OF SUBSTITUTION
1. Use alternate materials (eg lower flash
point, use Sodium Hypochlorite instead
of Chlorine)

2. Use tools instead of handling with bare

hands

3. Use trolley and truck (instead of carrying)

4. Automate process
 EXAMPLES OF ENGINEERING CONTROL
1. Intsalling interlocks

2. Modifying equipment

3. Use special tools for the job

4. Redesign workplace layout

5. Install noise enclosure

6. Machine guarding
 EXAMPLES OF ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS
1. Implementing permit-to-work system

2. Barricading area

3. Job rotation (to reduce fatigue)

4. F o l l o w i n g j o b p r o c e d u r e s / w o r k
Instructions

5. Working in pairs

6. Testing for hazardous atmosphere

TAKE 2
“TAKE TWO” means taking two minutes to
think through a job before the job is actually
started

Talk Have I talked with everyone involved with this job?

Action Do I know the proper actions I need to follow to
do this job safely?

Knowledge Do I have the proper knowledge to do this

job safely?

Do I have the proper equipment, including

Equipmentthe proper PPE to do this job safely?

A JSA Form should be attached to copy of the

Work Permit
And
It shall be always available at shop floor with
executing staff / people
