JHA (Job Hazard Analysis)

Job Hazard Analysis

Systematic identification of hazards associated with specific work steps and definition of controls.

Examples

  1. 01The JHA for changing a saw blade lists each step, the hazard of cuts and the control of using a blade holder and gloves.
  2. 02During safety walks, supervisors ask operators to explain the JHA for their task and check that the blade holder is actually used.
  3. 03When the JHA misses a step, it is updated and the operators are trained again.
