Job Hazard Analysis (JHA/JSA) builder
A Job Hazard Analysis — also called a JSA or, on federal work, an AHA — breaks a task into steps, finds the hazard in each step, and records the control. Fill this in for your task and print it for the crew and the file. Free, no account needed.

How to do a Job Hazard Analysis
OSHA’s booklet Job Hazard Analysis (OSHA 3071) sets out the method. First, pick the job — prioritize jobs with the highest injury rates, the potential for severe harm, new or changed processes, and complex tasks. Second, break the job into a sequence of basic steps, without so much detail that it becomes unwieldy or so little that hazards are missed. Third, for each step ask what can go wrong and identify the hazard — struck-by, caught-in, fall, electrical, chemical exposure, ergonomic and so on. Fourth, determine the controls using the hierarchy of controls: eliminate the hazard, substitute something safer, use engineering controls, then administrative controls and safe work practices, and personal protective equipment last. Review the JHA with the workers who do the job, and revisit it after any incident or change. Always check osha.gov for current guidance and any standard that applies to the task.
