JSA Training

The Scope of Job Safety Analysis (JSA) covers identifying workplace hazards, assessing risks, and implementing control measures for task-specific activities. It aims to enhance safety awareness, prevent accidents, and ensure compliance with regulations through systematic analysis, documentation, and continuous improvement of job processes.

MODULE 1: INTRODUCTION TO JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS (JSA)

  • Definition and purpose of JSA
  • Importance of JSA in workplace safety
  • Legal and regulatory requirements (OSHA, ISO 45001, etc.)
  • Benefits of JSA in accident prevention

MODULE 2: UNDERSTANDING WORKPLACE HAZARDS

    Types of workplace hazards
  • Physical (machinery, falls, noise)
  • Chemical (exposure to hazardous substances)
  • Biological (viruses, bacteria)
  • Ergonomic (repetitive strain, poor posture)
  • Psychosocial (stress, fatigue)
    • Hazard recognition techniques
    Risk assessment principles (likelihood vs. severity)

DURATION

3-4 Hours

REWARD

Successful completion of the training will result in the award of JSA training certificate

TARGET AUDIENCE

  • Operators and Technicians
  • Supervisors
  • Contractors and Subcontractors
  • Management Staff

ASSESSMENT

  • Individual post assessment shall be done after the session.

OBJECTIVES

  • Learn how JSA improves workplace safety by identifying and mitigating hazards.
  • Understand various types of hazards (physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic, etc.) in job tasks.
  • Understand step-by-step procedures for conducting a Job Safety Analysis.
  • Recognize the severity and likelihood of hazards associated with each task.
  • Understand the Hierarchy of Controls (Elimination, Substitution, Engineering, Administrative, and PPE) to minimize risks.
  • Understand workers on the risks of H₂S in confined spaces and the importance of atmospheric testing before entry.

MODULE 3: JSA PROCESS STEP-BY-STEP

    I. Selecting the Job or Task for Analysis
  • High-risk jobs
  • Repetitive tasks
  • Tasks with previous incidents
    • II. Identifying Hazards in Each Step
  • Common hazards associated with each task
  • Evaluating risk levels
    • IV. Implementing Hazard Controls
    Hierarchy of Controls:
  • Evaluating risk levels
  • Elimination (removing the hazard)
  • Substitution (using a safer alternative)
  • Engineering Controls (machine guards, ventilation)
  • Administrative Controls (training, work procedures)
  • PPE (last line of defense)

MODULE 4: CONDUCTING A JSA - PRACTICAL APPROACH

  • Who should be involved in JSA? (workers, supervisors, safety officers)
  • Data collection methods (observations, checklists, employee input)
  • Documenting and reviewing a JSA form
  • Integrating JSA into daily operations

MODULE 5: COMMON PITFALLS AND MISTAKES IN JSA

  • Incomplete hazard identification
  • Overcomplicated or oversimplified analysis
  • Lack of worker involvement
  • Failure to update JSAs regularly

MODULE 6 : ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES IN JSA

  • Employer’s responsibility in implementing JSA
  • Employee’s role in contributing to JSA
  • Supervisors and safety officers’ role in monitoring compliance

MODULE 7: JSA AND INCIDENT INVESTIGATION

  • How JSA helps in incident prevention
  • Using JSA findings for incident investigation and root cause analysis
  • Linking JSA to corrective and preventive actions (CAPA)

MODULE 8: JSA DOCUMENTATION AND RECORD-KEEPING

  • How to fill out a JSA form
  • Maintaining JSA records for audits and inspections
  • Updating JSAs for process changes

MODULE 9: CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT AND JSA REVIEW

  • When to review and revise JSAs (new equipment, changes in process, incidents)
  • Integrating JSA into workplace safety culture
  • Periodic refresher training on JSA
