A written breakdown of a task that identifies each step's hazards and how to eliminate them.
A job hazard analysis (JHA) is a systematic process for identifying hazards associated with each step of a work task and determining the controls needed to eliminate or reduce risk. It is prepared before work begins, reviewed with workers, and updated when conditions change. JHAs serve as the foundation for site safety plans and toolbox talks.
The superintendent required a completed JHA before any crew began working on the elevated steel erection to ensure all fall hazards were identified and controlled.
