A Job Safety Analysis is a safety tool. It helps people to logically examine a particular job or task so that all the hazards associated with that particular job can be identified and assessed and when necessary, suitable control measures can be determined.

The aim of a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is to document how a particular job should be done safely.

There are a number of different benefits that result from the process of conducting JSA’s in the workplace, which include:

• Raising the level of general safety awareness
• Identifying hazards that have not been previously identified or properly controlled
• As a tool for use in training applications
• As a reference tool when conducting accident investigations
• As a basis for preparing a written Safe Work Procedure.
