Stopping Risky Behavior through Job Hazard Analysis

Join us for a two hour audio conference as we explain the principles of JHA, how it can be used to satisfy OSHA/MSHA training requirements, how to identify those tasks that should be priorities for JHA utilization, and methods of proper documentation and use of the JHA documents to establish worksite procedures and to provide affirmative defenses in OSHA litigation. This is a comprehensive audio conference you can't afford to miss.

Learning Objectives:

• Conduct Job Hazard Analysis and prepare JHA form.
• Use JHA to document task training and refresher training for workers.
• Use JHA to prepare site-specific safety procedures for construction, mining and general industry worksites.
• Identify high hazard/high risk work assignments.
• Reduce shortcuts by experienced workers and ensure that new workers are properly trained.
