Job Safety Analysis (JSA)
A method that can be used to identify, analyze and record: (1) the steps involved in performing a specific job; (2) the existing or potential safety and health hazards associated with each step; and (3) the recommended action(s)/procedure(s) that will eliminate or reduce these hazards and the risk of an injury or illness. (Used interchangeably with the terms “Job Hazard Analysis”, but also refer to “Task Risk Analysis” for the purposes of this guideline.)
