Section I -Enter general information about the site and job task.
Section II - Determine whether any of these operations apply to the job task to be performed. Make note of any special training, permit, certification, and risk
assessment requirements.
Section III - Identify any human/organizational factors that could impact the ability to perform the work safely.
1. Break the job down into steps - Be as specific as possible. Write each job step in a new row of column A (Activity/Step). It’s a good idea to leave an extra row
between steps in case you need them later. Add additional rows to the table as needed, or if completing the JSA on paper, print additional copies of the
sheet to accommodate all job steps.
2. Determine the hazards associated with each job step and write them in column B (Hazards). Use the examples of hazards provided below to trigger your
thinking about different types of hazards and energy sources.
3. List any control measures that will be taken to ensure that step is done safely in column C (Control Measures). Use the control measure examples and
hierarchy provided to trigger your thinking about different types of controls and their effectiveness at reducing risk. Controls toward the top of the table
tend to be more effective at minimizing the severity and/or likelihood of an event than the controls toward the bottom of the table. If this job involves a Life
Crucial Operation, continue to step 4. Otherwise, repeat steps 2-3 for each of the job steps identified, then proceed to step 8.
4. Considering the hazards involved and the control measures that will be in place, determine the worst credible severity of an incident that could result from
this job step. Use the severity table provided. Write the severity number in column D (Severity).
5. Considering the hazards involved and the control measures that will be in place, determine the likelihood that an incident will result from this job step. Use
the likelihood table provided. Write the likelihood number in column E (Likelihood).
6. Multiply the severity number by the likelihood number and enter the product in column F (Risk).
7. Consider the risk rating against the thresholds provided in the Overall Risk Ratings.
i. Very low and low risk ratings of 1-3. This level is generally considered acceptable provided that all control measures are applied.
ii. Medium risk ratings of 4-6. Medium risk requires a planned approach to control the hazard and applies additional controls if required. Action taken must
be documented on the risk assessment form.
iii. High and Very High-Risk ratings of 8-24. For all high and very high risk, Column G (Additional control measures) must be implemented to further reduce
the risk to a medium or low level. Such activities shall not be proceeded until applying additional control measures. The Construction Director/Manager or
facility Manager must personally review the activities with a High or Very High residual risk score and approve additional control measures by signing off
the JSA.
Section IV - Provide the name, company, and title of those who prepared and reviewed/approved this form in the signature box provided. The Construction
Director/Manager or facility Manager must review and approve the additional control measures that have a High or Very High-Risk rating before proceeding the task.
Additional space is also provided for crew members to sign the JSA if desired.
