Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is an approach to an accident prevention.
A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a procedure which helps integrate accepted safety and health principles and practices into a particular task or job operation. In a JSA, each basic step of the job is to identify potential hazards and to recommend the safest way to do the job. Other terms used to describe this procedure are job hazard analysis (JHA) and job hazard breakdown.
Some individuals prefer to expand the analysis into all aspects of the job, not just safety. This approach is known as total job analysis. Methodology is based on the idea that safety is an integral part of every job and not a separate entity. In this document, only health and safety aspects will be considered.
7 BASIC STEPS OF JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS (JSA):
1. Job Identification - Communication of Scope
2. Job Analysis - Identifying The Job Steps
3. Hazard Identification - Identifying The Hazards In Steps
4. Hazard Prioritization - Assessing Risk And Priorities
5. Hazard Controls - Applying Control & Risk
A. Elimination
B. Substitution
C. Engineering Controls
D. Administrative Controls
E. Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE)
6. Documentation - Formalized Method (Communication)
7. Monitor And Review - Ongoing
3 BASIC STEPS OF SAFETY TASK ASSIGNMENT (STA):
1. Pre Task Planning
2. Hazards Identification & Correction
3. Supervisor And Employee Accountability
