1- Select Job To Be Analyzed
- Ideally all jobs should be analyzed
- Prioritize by: Accident frequency and severity, Potential for severe injuries and illnesses, Newly established jobs, Modified jobs

2- Determine Sequence of Basic Job Steps
- Break each task down into steps
- Describe and list each step in sequence
- Work activities are described in terms of the work process or worker behaviours that characterize the job
- Rule of thumb = less than 10 steps or divide job into two segments

3- Assess the Risk Factors at Each Step
- Beside each step, write down the machines, tools, materials, equipment, processes, human factors, situational factors and environmental factors involved that could cause an accident or health effects

4- Analyze the Hazards Associated with Each Step
- Systematically go through every risk factor for every step, and consider what specific hazards might be involved
- Make a list of both health and safety hazards

5- Develop Preventative Measures and Controls for Each Step
- Identify procedures or modifications needed to eliminate or control the hazards
- Control at the Source
- Control Along the Path
- Control at the Worker

6- Validate the Analysis
- Implement the needed controls, and then validate the analysis by observing the task in operation
- Make sure that new hazards have not been introduced.
Revise as necessary

7- Evaluation
- If a worker is injured at work, the job hazard analysis should be reviewed and any additional precautions noted to prevent a similar occurrence

Scheduled maintenance: Saturday, December 10 from 10PM to 11PM PST
