JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS (JSA)

07/30/2021 TRAINING ON JSA 1

 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.

 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.

 Survey The Job Site Conditions
• Slip, trip & fall hazards. • Moving machinery.
• Illumination. • Noise.
• Work at elevations. • Chemicals.
• Electricity.
• Airborne contaminants.
• Confined spaces.
• PPE requirements.
• Material handling

 Breakdown Job Into Steps

• Order of occurrence.
• Avoid too much detail.
• Avoid generalizing or
combining steps.

07/30/2021 TRAINING ON JSA 11

 Identify The Hazards

• List all possible hazards

for each step.
• Do not omit possible
hazards by rationalizing
probability.

 Develop
Controls
1. Engineering controls

2. Administrative controls

3. Work Practices

4. Personal Protective Equipment

07/30/2021 TRAINING ON JSA 13

 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.
07/30/2021 TRAINING ON JSA 14
 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.

07/30/2021 TRAINING ON JSA 15

 Work Practices

Work practice controls include:

• Workplace rules
• Safe & healthful work practices
• Personal hygiene
• Housekeeping and maintenance
• Procedures for specific operations
and maintenance
07/30/2021 TRAINING ON JSA 16
 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.
