JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS PSSA SAFETY TRAINING 2015 PRESENTED BY SUE MAAS, CHMM ARGUS PACIFIC, INC. WWW.ARGUSPACIFIC.COM SUEMAAS@ARGUSPACIFIC.COM
3
WHAT IS A JSA? (a.k.a. Job Hazard Analysis or Job Risk Analysis) A Safety version of the “7 Ps”: Prior Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance! Pre-examining & pre-planning a job acitivity in order to do it safely Communication of JSA to/motivation of crew to use process Flexible process for simple to complex jobs Important to get management commitment
4
OSHA JHA (a.k.a. JSA) DEFINITION A job hazard analysis is a technique that focuses on job tasks as a way to identify hazards before they occur It focuses on the relationship between the worker, the task, the tools and the work environment Ideally, after you identify uncontrolled hazards, you will take steps to eliminate or reduce them to an acceptable risk level Not same thing as an SOP
5
JSAs are useful for ANY activity 24/7, such as having a safe & successful fishing adventure…
6
JSA MAIN PARTS Define job: Understand tasks/steps of job & conditions at time of job Identify/evaluate hazards of each task Determine controls for each task hazard: Engineering controls Administrative controls Work practices PPE
7
LEVELS OF JSA INFORMAL (mental or conversational; not documented) Lower risk/more simple & routine activities FORMAL (documented) Higher risk/more complex activities
8
INFORMAL JSA For frequent & lower risk/simple tasks Worker(s) think/talk things through; not usually written procedures Similar to Tool box talks/tailgate safety meetings Job requires typically only 1-2 workers The worker(s) doing the job perform the JSA No approvals needed; supervisor not necessary Worker(s) mentally/verbally outline task & estimate risk When: just before job is done Where: near/at location of job Record-keeping not required
9
FORMAL JSA More complex job with multiple & detailed tasks Higher risk tasks May be larger crew; all should have input Documented; records kept Supervisor oversees JSA development; approval required More formalized risk assessment/ranking process Conducted in advance to allow planning/creation of form May be repeated just before job is carried out
10
FORMAL OR INFORMAL JSA? Hand-carrying boxes of stores through passageways/ladderways Painting or chipping in open air Routine housekeeping- mopping deck Chipping paint in an enclosed or confined space Fueling operations Changing air conditioner filter Welding guardrail onto moored barge in icy conditions Welding in enclosed or confined space *INFORMAL FORMAL *INFORMAL FORMAL *Workers should have option of formal JSA if higher risks assessed or risks are uncertain
11
IF INFORMAL JSA IS ENOUGH… What are the tasks? Understood by all Workers have necessary experience/comfortable w/ job What are possible hazards? Work area conditions, lighting, location, weather, etc Equipment/tools to be used/condition of People nearby affected 360: look up, down, around Everyone gives input
12
Who will do what? What equipment will be used/hazard controls? Tools/equipment PPE Exposure monitoring if needed Barricades/barriers Communication IF INFORMAL JSA IS ENOUGH (Cont’d)
13
SO, YOU NEED A FORMAL JSA… WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW? 1. WHAT IS THE JOB (WHAT ARE TASKS)? What specific steps/tasks make up the job? What are the risks of each task (qualitative judgement)? Who will perform the tasks? Does everyone understand tasks? Need any training? When will each task be done (time of day, weather /environmental limitations, etc)? What kind of tools and equipment will be needed? What kind of communication (radios, etc) will be needed?
14
FORMAL JSA: Types of hazards: Exposures (chemicals, gases, noise, UV, radiation, etc) Slips, trips, falls Electrical Struck-by/caught-between Heavy equipment Cuts Sprains/strains Biological Environmental (heat and cold, visibility) Other jobs/activities nearby that affect workers/tasks What are the risks of each task? Rank the risks Do any tasks need their own JSA?? 2. WHAT ARE THE HAZARDS FOR EACH TASK?
15
SAMPLE TASKS & HAZARDS
16
RANKING RISKS OF EACH HAZARD 2. Evaluate each hazard’s risk Qualitative judgement, for example: Severe High Moderate Low Re-assess rankings after controls selected
17
FORMAL JSA 3. HOW WILL THE HAZARDS BE CONTROLLED? Engineering controls: focus on managing hazard at the source: Can it be eliminated? Isolate Contain Ventilate Is equipment available & in good condition? Does everyone know how to use equipment? Does the engineering control present its own hazards? IMPORTANT: double-check each control’s effectiveness after implementation – JSA is on-going
18
FORMAL JSA 3. HOW WILL THE HAZARDS BE CONTROLLED? (Cont’d) Administrative controls: focus on managing people Policies & procedures Training Scheduling Work zones Communication system Do you have enough people? Do they all understand the work and any hazards? Is everyone ready to do job (physically & mentally)?
19
FORMAL JSA 3. HOW WILL THE HAZARDS BE CONTROLLED? (Cont’d) Work practices: tools and techniques to deal with hazard What tools are needed? What hazards are created by tools/activity? Are there alternative methods/tools that are safer?
20
FORMAL JSA 3. HOW WILL THE HAZARDS BE CONTROLLED? (Cont’d) PPE: personal protective equipment to protect against exposure to hazard: Head Eyes Hearing Respiratory Hands Feet Body
21
FORMAL JSA Once controls are implemented, does everything work the way it should? Do the controls reduce the risk to the acceptable level (ranking)? Does this job REALLY need to be done? Have workers/supervisors involved sign their part of form JSA documentation supports development of SOPs

25
CLOSING THOUGHTS ABOUT JSAs JSA practice is more effective if: Management is supportive, communicates commitment to JSA process consistently! All affected workers are involved in the process: ‘the whole is greater than sum of parts…’ each worker has a unique perspective to contribute to JSA’s being as complete as possible Keeps workers engaged- directly impacts their safety Process should be balanced between covering enough detail without being burdensome
