JOB HAZARD
ANALYSIS (JHA)
JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS
is one of the safety management tools that can be
used to define and control the hazards associated
with a certain process, job or procedure. Job Hazard
Analysis is a term used interchangeably with Job
Safety Analysis and Risk Assessment. The purpose of
a JHA is to ensure that the risk of each step of a task
is reduced to ALARP (As Low As Reasonably
Practicable).
USES OF JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS
➢ Create/ Improve (Safe Operating Procedures (SOP's))
➢ Guide in observing employee performance

ESTABLISHING PRIORITIES ARE


➢ Accident investigation
➢ Safety inspection

BASED ON THE FOLLOWING


CRITERIA:
➢ High frequency of accidents or near- misses
➢ History of serious accidents or fatalities
➢ Potential for serious harm
➢ New jobs
➢ Changes in procedures and standards
SELECTING A JHA TEAM:
➢ Involving others in the process reduces the possibility or overlooking an individual
job step or potential hazard
➢ It increases the likelihood of identifying the most appropriate measures of
eliminating or controlling the hazards.

AN EFFECTIVE JHA TEAM


USUALLY INCLUDES:
o The supervisor
o The employee most familiar with how the job is done and its related
hazards
o Other employees who perform the job
o Experts or specialist when necessary, such as safety officer, maintenance
personnel, occupational hygienist, ergonomists, or design engineers.
ACCIDENTS CAN OCCUR WHEN
➢ Work is performed incorrectly
➢ Workers use hazardous materials
➢ Work Under hazardous conditions
JHA PROCEDURE
1. IDENTIFYING BASIC
JOB STEPS
Most common errors:
➢ Describing the job in too much detail
➢ Describing the job in too little detail
Solution:
➢ List as steps only those tasks that would be
described to someone being trained to perform the
job.
2. Determine the Hazards
➢ Hazard guide: ➢ Materials
o The physical actions required for that specific step o Chemicals
o The materials used o Corrosive
o The equipments used o Flammable
o The conditions under which the step is normally o Volatile
performed. ➢ Equipment
➢ Physical action: o Mechanical hazard
o Force (weight) o Electrical hazard
o Frequency (repetition) ➢ Conditions
o Posture (Prolonged) o Noisy environment
o Position (distance) o Temperatures extremes
o Vibration present
o Poor or high Illumination
o Pressure (atmospheric force)
o Prolonged hours
3. RECOMMENDING CORRECTIVE MEASURES:
➢ Should be developed at the job site whenever possible
➢ Should be developed in sequence, beginning with the first hazard
➢ Must be specific
CORRECTING THE HAZARDS
➢ Administrative control o Installation of machine
➢ PPE o Use of automatic safeguard devices
➢ Engineering control o Replacement of a particular piece of
➢ Physical action equipment
o Modifying/Rearranging/Combining o Training, experience, skills
actions o Use of PPE should also be considered
o Change the process ➢ Work Area Condition
o Training o Relocation (isolation by place)
o Use of PPE o Rescheduling (isolation by time)
➢ Material o Redesign of the work area
o Substitution of materials
o Machine guarding or Safe guarding
o Limit employee exposure
o Use of PPE
➢ Equipment
 

USES OF A JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS

/ develop written procedures to perform
the job in the safest & healthiest way possible.
  4. Inspections - When developing inspection
2. Employee Training checklists, supervisors can use JHA’s to help
▪ Ensuring that each job step is performed safely identify hazardous conditions that may need to be
& efficiently included.
▪ To point out particular job steps / hazards that  
requires special precautions. 5. Accident Investigations
▪ Refresher training (infrequent jobs) ▪ To determine if the job was being performed
▪ Increase awareness on hazards incorrectly
  ▪ To tell if a hazard was overlooked in the initial
3. Employee Observations analysis.
▪ Guide in employee performance observations
▪ Allows supervisors to focus on especially
hazardous steps
▪ Ensures employee is performing steps
