Job Safety Analysis For Supervisors

This document outlines the process for completing a job safety analysis (JSA). It explains that a JSA breaks a job task into steps, identifies hazards for each step, and determines controls to mitigate risks. Benefits of JSA include identifying unsafe practices before accidents, reducing injuries, and improving quality and productivity. The document provides a three-step process for completing a JSA: 1) list job steps, 2) identify hazards, and 3) determine controls. It emphasizes observing jobs carefully and using common sense.

JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS

FOR SUPERVISORS
Safety Training Module
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
2

 Explain the need for JSAs


 Explain the benefits of JSAs
 Provide the information necessary to properly
complete JSAs
 Provide the tools necessary to properly complete
JSAs
WHAT IS JOB SAFETY
3
ANALYSIS ?
 Method used to break a job task into separate and
distinct steps
 Evaluate the hazards associated with each step
 Determine the appropriate controls needed to
control each of the identified hazards
BENEFITS OF JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS
4

 Identifies unsafe work practices before an accident


occurs
 Decreases injury rates
 Increases quality
 Increases productivity
USES OF JOB SAFETY
5
ANALYSES
 Evaluate existing jobs
 Set up new jobs
 Training and re-training tool
 Prioritize jobs needing re-design
 Ties in closely with other job analyses (quality &
productivity studies)
 Reference in accident investigations
DEFINITION OF KEY WORDS
6

 Job task
 Job step
 Hazard
 Exposure
 Control
 Accident / Incident
DEFINITION OF KEY WORDS - Example
7

 Job Task - change a light bulb


 Job Step - climb ladder
 Hazard - defects on ladder
 Exposure - injury from ladder fall
 Control - inspect ladders before use and remove
from service if defective
 Accident / Incident - fall with or
without injury
ONE PROCESS, THREE GOALS

SAFETY

PROCESS PRODUCTIVITY

QUALITY

= PROFITS
WHERE TO START?
9

 Accident history
 Employee complaints
 Employee turnover
 Absenteeism
 Other supervisors & managers
 Safety manager
 Jobs showing potential for loss
WHEN IN DOUBT, USE COMMON SENSE !
10

When in doubt????
ASK…..
THREE STEP JSA PROCEDURE
11

 Identify each major step of the job task


 List the hazard(s) to each major step
 Determine the control(s) that would prevent an
accident for each hazard identified
IMPORTANT TIPS
12

 Evaluate all aspects of the job task, even if


performed infrequently
 Observe more than one employee doing a
specific job task
 Observe more than one shift
 Take enough time observing the job
 Observe a worker actually doing the job, not
just describing job
STEP 1:
LIST BASIC JOB STEPS
13

 Define the job task to be studied


 Observe task and break into major steps
 Record results
 Ensure that information is complete and accurate
STEP 1:
GATHERING INFORMATION
14

 Direct observation
 Videotape
 Employee participation
 Other supervisors
