Location: [LOCATION]

Supervisor: [SUPERVISOR NAME]

Task Overview

Development of a comprehensive pre-job hazard analysis (PJHA) form in compliance with safety regulations and industry best practices to identify and mitigate potential workplace hazards.

Expected Duration: 8 hours

Number of Workers: 1

Required PPE and Equipment

Personal Protective Equipment

• Safety Glasses: ANSI Z87.1 rated safety glasses with side shields to protect eyes from dust, debris, and other potential hazards.
• Gloves: Appropriate work gloves (e.g., leather, nitrile) to protect hands from cuts, abrasions, and chemical exposure.
• Steel-Toed Boots: CSA-approved steel-toed boots to protect feet from impact and compression hazards.
• High-Visibility Vest: ANSI Class 2 or 3 high-visibility vest to ensure visibility in all work environments.

Tools and Equipment

• Computer: A computer with appropriate software (e.g., word processor, spreadsheet program) for creating and editing the PJHA form.
• Printer: A printer to produce hard copies of the PJHA form for review and distribution.
• Relevant Safety Regulations and Standards: Access to relevant safety regulations (e.g., OSHA, NIOSH) and industry best practices (e.g., ANSI standards).

Hazard Analysis

Identified Hazards

Hazard	Risk Level	Potential Consequences
Inadequate Hazard Identification	High	Failure to identify all potential hazards can lead to accidents, injuries, and non-compliance with safety regulations.
Lack of Regulatory Compliance	High	PJHA form does not meet the requirements of relevant safety regulations, leading to fines, legal action, and increased risk of incidents.
Poor Communication	Medium	Inadequate communication of identified hazards and control measures to workers can result in misunderstanding and increased risk of accidents.
Insufficient Training	Medium	Lack of proper training on how to use and interpret the PJHA form can lead to errors and ineffective hazard control.
Outdated Information	Medium	Using outdated safety information or regulations can result in ineffective hazard control and increased risk of incidents.

Control Measures

• Consult OSHA, NIOSH, ANSI, and other relevant sources to ensure the PJHA form complies with all requirements.: Conduct thorough research of applicable safety regulations and industry best practices.
• Include all potential hazards relevant to the workplace, such as physical, chemical, biological, and ergonomic hazards.: Develop a comprehensive hazard identification checklist.
• Use a risk assessment matrix to evaluate the likelihood and severity of potential hazards and prioritize control measures accordingly.: Incorporate a risk assessment matrix into the PJHA form.
• Specify the control measures to be implemented for each identified hazard, such as engineering controls, administrative controls, and personal protective equipment (PPE).: Include a section for documenting control measures.
• Conduct regular safety meetings, provide training on the PJHA form, and post the form in a visible location.: Develop a communication plan to ensure that all workers are aware of the identified hazards and control measures.

Emergency Procedures

Emergency Contact Information

• Site Emergency: 911
• First Aid: To be determined
• Supervisor: To be determined

Emergency Response Steps

1. In the event of an emergency, immediately assess the situation and ensure personal safety.
2. Activate the emergency alarm system and notify emergency services (911).
3. Evacuate the area and proceed to the designated assembly point.
4. Provide first aid to injured personnel, if trained and safe to do so.

Evacuation Routes

Primary evacuation route: Follow the marked exit signs to the nearest fire exit. Secondary evacuation route: Use the stairwell located at the opposite end of the building.

Designated assembly point: Parking lot, far side.

Required Permits and Certifications

• None required for form development.

Additional Safety Considerations

• Ensure the PJHA form is user-friendly and easy to understand.
• Regularly review and update the PJHA form to reflect changes in the workplace and safety regulations.
• Involve workers in the development and review of the PJHA form to ensure it is relevant and effective.
