Job Safety Analysis Made Simple is a practical tool to help people identify workplace hazards and develop safe work practices to prevent injuries and illnesses and other losses.

Employers are responsible for assessing the health and safety risk of a job and ensuring safety measures are in place to eliminate any risk to their employees. The Job Safety Analysis Made Simple publication introduces the concept of Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and outlines two practical methods of identifying potential hazards: Change Analysis and the Energy Barrier Approach. The JSA discusses the strengths and application of each method, as well as providing lengthy tips and commentary to help develop safe work practices to prevent injuries and illnesses in the workplace.

Scope
