Job Hazard Analysis

Purpose:-
The purpose of average of Hazard analysis is to identify, controller eliminate potential or actual
dangerous in the job or task.
Factors to be considered in as I need a priority for analysis of jobs include:
• Accident frequency and severity: jobs where accident occur frequently or Verde occur
frequently but result in disabling injuries.
• Potential for severe injuries or illnesses: Consequences of an accident, hazardous
condition, or exposure to harmful substances are potentially severe.
• Newly established jobs: due to lack of experience in these jobs, hazards me not be every
day. I anticipated.
• Modified jobs: new hasn't maybe associated with changes in job procedures.
• Infrequently performed jobs : workers maybe at greater risk 189 routing dogs, and a job
as a analysis provide means of reviewing hazard.
M/s Chaithanya Electrical Works., management and supervision is responsible for ensuring all
work is safely planner the dog has our analysis will assist in determining first Lee what are the
steps in the job secondly what are the potential hazard in the job and finally worked are the
protect to measure for the safety of our workers assigned to do the non routine work.

Procedure for completing a job hazard analysis


Breakdown of job steps:
 Job or task identified for analysis by supervisor.
 Supervisor over saying the job breaks job in to steps ( with assistance from crew
members, H and S rep etc)
 A job step is defined as a segment of the operation necessary to advance the work.
 Keep the steps in the correct sequence.
Identify actual or potential hazards (referred to checklist)
Once the basic steps have been recorded coma potential hazards must be identified at each step.
This is based on conservation of the job knowledge of accident and in injury causes, and
personal experience. To identify potential hazards the supervisor may questions such as these:
1. Can any body part get caught in or between objects?
2. Do tools, machines or equipment present any hazards?
3. Can we make harmful contact with objects?
4. Can the worker slip trip or fall?
5. Can the worker suffer train from lifting, pushing or pulling?
6. Is the worker exposed to Extreme heat or cold?
7. Is excessive noise or vibration a problem?
8. Is there a danger from falling objects?
9. Is lighting a problem?
10. Can weather conditions affect safety?
11. Is harmful radiation a possibility?
12. Can contact be made with hot, toxic or caustic substances?
13. Are there dusts, fumes, Mist s or vapor in the air?

Preventive measures/ controls:-


The final stage in a job hazard analysis is to determine ways to eliminate or control the hazards
identified.

Eliminate the hazard:-


This is the most effective measure some examples are:
 Choose a different process
 Modify an existing process
 Substitute with less hazardous substance
 Modify or change equipment or tools.
Contain the hazard:-
If the hazard cannot be eliminated, contact might be prevented by using enclosures, machine
Guards worker booths or similar devices.

Revise Work Procedure :-


Consideration might be given to modifying steps that are hazardous, changing the sequence of
steps or adding additional steps(such as locking out energy sources)

Reduce the Exposure :-


These measures are the least effective and should only be used if no other solutions are possible.
One way to minimizing exposure is to reduce the number of times the hazard is encountered.

Communication of Job Hazard Analysis to Workers :-


When the Job Hazard Analysis is completed, the results must be communicated to all workers
who are, or who will be, performing the job. The job hazard analysis must be discussed by the
employees performing the job to ensure that all the basic steps have been noted , are in the
correct order, have suitable controls and be documented and signed by the worker and
supervisor. Supervisors will ensure that workers are following the appropriate control
procedures.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Why is it so important to work safely with or near electricity?


The voltage of the electricity and the available electrical current in regular businesses and homes
has enough power to cause death by an electrocution. Even changing a light bulb without
unplugging the lamp can be hazardous because coming in contact with the “hot”, “energized” or
“live” part of the socket could kill a person.

What do I need to know about the electricity?


All electrical systems have the potential to cause harm. Electricity can be either static or dynamic
full stop dynamic electricity is the uniform motion of electrons through a conductor (this is
known as electric current) close. Conductors are materials that allow the movement of electricity
through it. Most metals are conductors. The human body is also a conductor. This document is
about dynamic electricity.
Note: static electricity is accumulation of charge on surfaces as a result of contact and friction
with another surface. This contact or friction causes and accumulation of electrons and one
surface and A deficiency of electrons and the other surface. The OSH answers document on How
do I work safely-static electricity has more information.
Electric current cannot exist without an unbroken path to and from the conductor. Electricity will
form a “path” or “loop”. When you plug in a device (e.g., a power tool), the electricity takes the
easiest path from the plug-in, to the tool, and back to the power source. This is action is also
known as creating or completing an electrical circuit.
What Kinds of injuries result from electrical currents?
People are injured when they become part of the electric circuit. Humans are more conductive
than the earth (the ground we stand on) which means if there is no other easy path, electricity
will try to flow through our bodies.
There are four types of injuries: Electrocution (fatal), Electric shock, Burns and falls. These
injuries can happen in various ways:
 Direct contact with exposed energized conductors or circuit parts. When electrical
current travels through our bodies, it can interfere with normal electrical signals
between the brain and our muscles (e.g. Heart may stop beating properly, breathing
may stop, or muscles may spasm).
 When the electricity arcs (jumps, or “arcs” from an exposed energized conductor or
circuit part (e.g. Over head power lines) through a gas (such as Air) to a person who
is grounded (that would provide an alternative route to the ground for the electrical
current).
 Thermal burns including burns from heat generated by an electric arc, and flame
burns from materials that catch on fire from heating or ignition by electrical currents
or an electric arc flash. Contact burns from being shocked can burn internal tissues
while leaving only very small injuries on the outside of the skin.
 Thermal burns from the heat radiated from an electric arc flash. Ultraviolet (UV) and
infrared (IR) light emitted from the arc flash can also cause damage to the eyes.
 An arc blast can include a potential pressure wave released from an arc flash. This
wave can cause physical injuries, collapse your lungs, or create noise that can damage
hearing.
 Muscle contraction, or a startle reaction, can cause a person to fall from a ladder,
scaffold or aerial bucket. The fall can cause serious injuries.

What are some general safety tips for working with or near electricity?
 Inspect portable cord- and- plug connected equipment, extension cord, power bars, and
electrical fittings for damage or wear before each use. Repair or replace damaged
equipment immediately.
 Always tape extension cords to walls or floors when necessary. Don’t use nails and
staples because they can damage extension cords and cause fire and shocks.
 Use extension cords or equipment that is rated for the level of amperage or wattage that
your using.
 Always use the correct size fuse. Replacing a fuse with one of a larger size can cause
excessive currents in the wiring possibly start a fire.
 Don’t operate tools in an area containing explosive vapors or gases, unless they are
intrinsically safe and only if you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines.
 Be aware that unusually warm our heart outlets are cards may be a sign that unsafe
wearing conditions exist. Unplug any chords are extension cords from these outlets and
do not use until a qualified electrician has check the wiring.
 Always use Ladders made with non- conductive light trails (example fiberglass) when
working with our near electricity are power lines.
 Place halogen lights away from combustible materials such as clothes are curtains.
Halogen lamps can become very heart and maybe a fire hazard.
 Risk of electric shock is Greater in areas that are wet or damp. Install ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI’S) as they will interrupt the electrical circuit before a current sufficient
to cause death or serious injury occurs.
 Use a portable inline ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) if you are not certain that the
receptacle you are blocking you are extension cord into GFCI protected.
 Make sure that exposed receptacle boxes are made of non conductive materials.
 Know where the panel and circuit breakers are located in case of an emergency.
 Label all circuit breakers and fuse boxes clearly. Each switch should be positively
identified as to which outlet or appliance it is for.
 Do not use outlets or cards that have exposed wiring.
 Do not use portable cord and plug connected power tools if the Guards are removed.
 Do not block access to panels and circuit breakers are fuse boxes.
 Do not touch a person for Electrical Apparatus in the event of an electrical incident.
Always disconnect the power source first.

What are some tips for working with power tools?


 Switch all tools of before connecting them to a power supply.
 Disconnect and lock out the power supply before completing any maintenance work tasks
are making adjustments.
 Ensure your tools are properly grounded or double insulated. The grounded equipment
must have an approved 3 wire cord with a 3 prong plug. This flag should be plugged in a
properly grounded three call outlet.
 Test all tools for effective grounding with a continuity tester or a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) before use.
 Do not bypass the on/off switch and operate the tools by by connecting and disconnecting
the power cord.
 Do not use electrical equipment in wet conditions are damp locations and less the
equipment is connected to a GFCI.
Do not clean tools with flammable or toxic solvents.

What are some tips for working with power cords?


 Keep power cords clear of tools during use.
 Suspend extension cords temporarily during use over aisles or work areas to eliminate
stumbling or tripping hazards.
 Replace open front plugs with dead front plugs. Dead front plugs are sealed and present
less danger of shock are short circuit.
 Don’t use light duty extension cords in a non-residential situation.
 Don’t carry or lift up electrical equipment by the power cord.
 Don’t tie cords in tight knots. Knots can cause short circuits and shocks. Loop the cords
or use a twist lock plug.

What is Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)?


A Class ground fault circuit interrupter(GFCI) works by detecting any loss of electrical current in
a circuit(e.g. It will trip at a maximum of 6mA). When a loss is detected, the GFCI turns the
electricity off before severe injuries or electrocution can occur. A painful non-fatal shock may
occur during the time that it takes for the GFCI to cut off the electricity so it is important to use
the GFCI as an extra protective measure rather than a replacement for safe work practices.
GFCI wall outlets can be installed in place of standard outlets to protect against electrocution for
just that outlet, or a series of outlets in same branch circuit. A GFCI circuits breaker can be
installed on some circuit breaker electrical panels to protect an entire branch circuit. Portable
inline plug inns GFCIs can be plugged into wall outlets where appliances will be used.
What is a sample checklist for basic electrical safety?
Inspect Cords and plugs
 Check extension cords and plugs daily. Don’t use, and discard corns and plugs if they are
worn are damaged.
 Have any extension cord that feels more than comfortably warm checked by an
electrician.

Eliminate Octopus Connections


 Don’t plug several items into one outlet.
 Pull the plug, not the cord.
 Don’t disconnect power supply by pulling or jerking the cord from the outlet. Pulling the
cord causes wear and may cause a shock.

Never Break OFF The third prong on a plug


 Replace broken 3-prong plugs and make sure that third prong is properly grounded

Never use extension cords as permanent wiring


 Use extension cords only to temporarily supply power to an area that doesn’t have a
power outlet.
 Keep extension cords away from heat, water and oil. They can damage the insulation and
cause a shock.

Don’t allow vehicles to pass over unprotected extension cords. Extension cords should be put in
protective wire way, conduit, pipe or protected by placing planks alongside them.
