Conducting a Job Safety Analysis to Eliminate Hazards
Practical Tips CONDUCTING A JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS TO ELIMINATE HAZARDS What is Job Safety Analysis? A job safety analysis (JSA) is a method for making your job safer. In a JSA, you do three things: 1. Observe step-by-step how a worker does an on-the-job task. 2. Look for possible hazards in each step of the task. 3. Suggest ways to eliminate or reduce each hazard so each step of the task is safer. A supervisor and typically two to three employees who know many steps involved in a job usually make up a JSA team. This number can vary depending on the complexity of the equipment or process. One employee can actually do the steps of the task. The others watch and write down on a JSA worksheet what they see. Performing the Job Safety Analysis Listing the Steps in the Task While one employee performs the task, the others watch and write down each step of the task. Keep the following tips in mind as you make the list in the first column of the JSA form: • List from 8 to 10 task steps that you can see. • Number each step. • List the steps in the order in which they are performed. • Use actions words such as "turn on," "load," "steer," or "unload." • Ask yourself, "What step starts this task?" List the first step, such as "put on PPE." • Then ask yourself, "What is the next basic step?" • List the next steps, such as "check that power is OFF" or "get into the operator's seat." • Tell completely but briefly what is done in each step, such as "lift the load and back out." Do not tell how the step is done, "lift the load with the fork slightly raised and back out slowly." • Continue in this way until you have listed every basic step in the task. -

Chapter 9: Chemical Hazard Information
CHEMICAL HAZARD INFORMATION CHAPTER 9 CONTENTS Overview ............................................................................................... 121 Reactive nature of chemicals ............................................................... 121 Organization of the chemical hazard information table ......................... 124 CHEMICAL HAZARD INFORMATION | Overview Many chemicals have minimal hazards, making them relatively safe to use. Others pose inherent risks and require specific precautions. Still, other chemicals must be handled with such extreme care that they are not practical or safe for school usage. This chapter provides a link to information on hazards for nearly 600 chemicals to help teachers, schools and divisions select and safely use chemicals. Schools and jurisdictions may use this information as a starting point for reviewing chemicals currently on its shelves (particularly where chemicals have accumulated over the years), and reassessing the scope and contents of chemical inventories. The information in this chapter includes numeric ratings for health, flammability and reactivity, plus supplementary comments on the scope and severity of hazards. It also includes WHMIS and storage classifications, as well as transportation hazard classes and disposal methods.This information has been compiled from the most reliable and accurate sources available at the time of writing. Inclusion of a chemical in the link listing does not signal appropriateness for school use, but is provided as preliminary information on potential concerns. Given the nature and severity of hazards involved, some of the chemicals listed are designated as not appropriate for use in schools due to safety considerations. Readers are advised to consult MSDS sheets and other current sources of more detailed information before using any of the chemicals listed in the link. Omission from this list is also not an indication of safety. -
JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS GUIDE Version Date Comments 1
JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS GUIDE Version Date Comments 1 September, 2016 Initial 2 June, 2017 Update procedure A. INTRODUCTION Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a procedure that focuses on individual job tasks to identify hazards and prevent injury or exposure by employing appropriate engineering, administrative, physical controls, as well as personal protective equipment (PPE). The JSA process focuses on the relationship between the worker, the task, the tools, and the work environment. JSA document steps that must be taken to eliminate or reduce workplace hazards to an acceptable risk level. This Guide is based upon Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) publication 3071 Job Hazard Analysis and 29 CFR 1910 Subpart I, Personal Protective Equipment. B. SCOPE University supervisors in consultation with EHS are responsible for determining a list of tasks performed by their employees. The JSA process requires employee involvement, review of any hazards associated with work tasks, and identification of controls that can mitigate or reduce hazards. The Environmental Health and Safety Office (EHS) will provide assistance developing the JSAs and supervisors are responsible for training, implementation and revision of the JSA Form. Work tasks which have JSA priority are those that: Have procedures that have the potential to be immediately dangerous to life and health; That can or have resulted in employee injury or exposure; Required lockout/tagout, confined space entry, fall protection, or personal protective equipment (PPE) to perform the task safely; Require the operation of a vehicle (other than an automobile), tool, or equipment capable of causing injury or exposure to an employee or bystanders; and Involve two or more employees, special procedures, or unique process in order to complete the task. -
HAZARD COMMUNICATION COMPLIANCE CHECKLIST Item Y N
HAZARD COMMUNICATION COMPLIANCE CHECKLIST Item Y N 1. Population Identification A criterion is established to determine employees that need Hazard Communication (HAZCOM) training? [The ANew Employee/Guest Orientation” form may be one method of compliance] 2. Training for identified populations a. Workers have received HAZCOM Standard Training (IND 200) [Retraining every two years is recommended. The audit criteria will be a current understanding of the Hazard Communication program and chemical safety by the employee.] b. Workers have received training on hazards specific to their area [May include “on-the- job” training, DACUMS, JTA, JSA, discussions with supervisor, tool box training, etc.] c. Workers are informed of safety requirements when new hazards are introduced into the workplace. 3. Hazard Information a. A copy of MSDSs for all chemicals used by the worker is kept in the location OR the BNL on- line MSDS system is used (http://www.esh.bnl.gov/cms/). b. Workers can demonstrate how to obtain a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). c. MSDSs for chemicals, NOT acquired through Supply & Material Receiving are forwarded to the Safety & Health Services Division MSDS program (Building 129). d. Workers can demonstrate the ability to comprehend hazard information from MSDSs. e. Workers have a clear understanding of the hazards of the chemical they use (based on training and review of the MSDS). 4. Hazard Recognition and Control a. The supervisor (or cognizant individual) conducts a review prior to the use of chemicals to determine the appropriate protective measures. b. Workers follow appropriate protective measures established by their supervisor. 1. Hoods, vents or other engineering controls are used as necessary.
