A Priority and Commitment to Safety: Job Hazard Analysis (OSHA)
DATE AND TIME Tuesday 23 and Wednesday 24 February 2010 / 10AM-1130AM
SPEAKER(S) Steve Iseminger Bill Johnstone Safety/Health & Environment Advisor Human Resource Officer Wolverine Pipe Line Co. Huron Clinton Metroparks 8075 Creekside Dr. Suite 210 13000 High Ridge Drive Portage, MI 49024 Brighton, MI 48114-9058 Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected]
SESSION DESCRIPTION Most park agencies are ‘can do’ people who work hard to make facilities and grounds look beautiful and function for the public. Yet, sometimes park agencies have the worst safety records. Put on your safety goggles and take a new look at your agency’s hazard protocols in this session. Follow some models, including a corporate safety model, in order to check or improve your agency’s safety culture! It is never too late to keep your workplace and your employees safe. Presenter Bill Johnstone spoke about his work with the Huron-Clinton Metroparks system. Mr. Johnstone spoke about the safety committee at the park system and what is expected of committee members as well as the superintendent. He also spoke about a document that their park system uses to assess safety in the parks. The GAP analysis document is helpful in giving ideas where improvements can be made in order to get up to best practices in safety. The document is also used as a guide for allocation of funds, knowing where to get the most impact for the budget.
The session centered on creating a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) in all aspects of the work environment. Bill Johnstone discussed the quarterly safety committee of the Huron-Clinton Metroparks. The committee meets to discuss accident producing conditions, and how these can be eliminated. Steve Iseminger discussed his use of JSAs in the workplace and the field. A Job Safety Analysis is a checklist of all conditions and factors of a job site. Steve Iseminger used a JSA as an example that was composed of several different categories, each composed of about ten questions regarding safety. Based on the answers to the questions, the categories were given a score that determines the overall level of safety for the job. Presenter Steve Iseminger spoke about preventing incidents and injuries in his work on the pipeline. He spoke about behavioral based safety, looking for trends in accidents, root causes of incidents and the importance of reporting near misses as well as actual incidents. The pipeline uses a mentor system as a safety measure with new employees so that no one works alone. Mr. Iseminger also spoke about safe work observations, where a supervisor will review tasks performed and be able to give positive reinforcement for a job well done. He mentioned that this type of intervention helps to eliminate any deviations from standard procedures. Mr. Iseminger gave examples of Job Safety Analysis documents that are utilized on the pipeline. These documents break down each job into a series of steps and assess the potential hazards and safety concerns at each point in the job. By reviewing these documents before each job, workers are able to be aware of the potential hazards and work with a safety first attitude.
Iseminger emphasized creating a “culture of safety” in the workplace, and to document all incidents, even near misses, minor scrapes, and cuts. This can help identify trends in the workplace that will aid in eliminating human errors that lead to injury. Additionally, he mentioned that it is important for managers and team leaders to attempt to standardize behavior as positive and questionable. Finally, he pointed out the importance of positive reinforcement of safe behavior rather than relying on negative reinforcement to eliminate careless behavior. This will aid in creating the “culture of safety” that is crucial in maintaining an accident-free workplace. SESSION LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Learn how job hazard analysis is used in the industry and the steps required to evaluate the hazards present in specific tasks.
Implement a job hazard analysis program including building a library, investing in safety training that meets OSHA standards, and building an agency culture of safety in the workplace.
