What is Job Hazard Analysis Software?

Driving a cycle of continuous improvement to improve workplace safety has many components, but chief among these is a robust and efficient process for job hazard analysis. The reason for this is simple: to effectively and proactively prevent injuries and illnesses in the workplace, you need a way to identify the specific hazards and risks your workers face on the job, and a process to determine and implement appropriate controls. By successfully identifying the potential hazards and risks associated with jobs and job steps in a consistent and systematic manner, you enhance your company’s safety and risk management decision-making to keep your people safe and your business running.

Establishing a JSA/JHA program at your organization is a good first step, but to be truly effective, your job hazard analysis and risk assessment process must be combined with good data analysis. Inconsistent or poor-quality data from too many disparate sources makes timely and systematic reviews of job safety more difficult, costing your company valuable time and resources that could be used elsewhere. A job hazard analysis software application that is part of a single integrated platform for high-quality data collection and analysis not only gives you a more efficient process, but ensures greater risk visibility and helps you implement appropriate controls.

The key word for successful job hazard analysis is “integration.” You need a safety management system with a hazard analysis module, but this needs to be integrated with other programs for behavior-based safety, reporting, incident management, corrective actions, and control measures to close the loop on your safety management system and truly mitigate the risks to your workers’ health and safety. By integrating JHA software with other safety applications, you can enhance information and knowledge sharing across your organization and ensure any JSAs are quickly reviewed following an incident or near miss.

When software applications speak to each other on an integrated platform, your organization will benefit from greater automation and efficiency. You can systemize and automate job safety analysis through workflows and continuous reviews to ensure your JSAs and control measures are always up-to-date. Providing access to your job hazard analysis module through mobile apps means your workers can have the latest information at their fingertips while working in the field.

With end-to-end job hazard analysis software encompassing risk assessment and controls, you can better protect workers by identifying and implementing controls required for each specific job step. Leverage the integrated capabilities of the software to deepen risk assessment across multiple job roles, enhance job hazard analysis, and improve results in all your operational areas.
