While there is no requirement, a JHA/JSA process usually involves the following:
- Create a list of “jobs” that are performed by workers.
- Prioritize the jobs for the JHA process.
- Involve employees in the JHA process.
- Break down each job into its most basic steps. Usually, a new step occurs when there is a change in motion, position, or a new tool is used.
- Identify the hazards associated with each step.
- Select controls for each hazard identified, using the hazard control hierarchy (elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative, and PPE).
- Train workers on new/revised JHAs.
- Post the JHA near the work area/machine it pertains to.
- Review JHAs periodically or when processes change or deviations are found.
