About This Course
In the construction industry, job site safety is a priority. With workers from different companies performing a variety of tasks, the environment can be hectic, and conditions change frequently.
It is vital for construction workers to be alert in this complex work environment. A job hazard analysis (JHA) is a vital component of an effective Health and Safety Program to identify hazards and prevent injuries such as falls from elevated areas, injuries from machinery, electrocutions, and other many other dangers.
This course analyzes the relationship between the worker, the task, the tools, and the work environment, and details how and why a job hazard analysis should be conducted. You will learn why a JHA is essential, how hazards are evaluated, and how to monitor the JHA effectiveness.
This course fulfills 1 hour of general elective credit toward earning or renewing your Site Safety Training (SST) card.
After completing the lessons and passing the 10-question final exam with a score of at least 75%, you'll receive a certificate of completion. You get three attempts to pass the final exam.
This is an awareness-level orientation ONLY. Your employer's responsibility is to train you to recognize and avoid job site-specific hazards that can cause occupational injury and illness. Your employers must create Job Hazard Analyses and prepare you for the work you perform.
This course is a specialized elective course that can help fulfill the requirement for an individual applying for a Site Safety Training Card. This course does not provide any other qualification or authorization outside of the Site Safety Training Card.
