Job Hazard Analysis/Job Saftey Analysis

Whether you call it a JHA or JSA, when it comes to health and safety, prevention is always the best strategy. 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.
