Replace Your JHA Spreadsheets With a Purpose-Built System
Most safety teams still build Job Hazard Analysis worksheets in Excel or Word. Also called a Job Safety Analysis (JSA), the JHA process breaks a job into steps, identifies hazards at each step, and defines controls. The results of doing this in spreadsheets are inconsistent formatting, scattered files, and worksheets that sit untouched for years.
JSABuilder was built specifically to solve this. Since 2008, safety professionals in construction, energy, manufacturing, and government have used it to create, store, and manage their JHA libraries in one place. Every worksheet comes out with the same clean, professional format — ready for the field or an audit.
Pick from hundreds of predefined hazards and controls to build worksheets faster, or add your own. Duplicate existing JHAs for similar jobs. Set up review reminders so nothing goes stale. It does the one thing it's supposed to do, and does it well.

Frequently Asked Questions About Job Hazard Analysis
What is a Job Hazard Analysis (JHA)?
A Job Hazard Analysis is a safety technique that focuses on identifying hazards before they cause injuries or illness. It breaks each job into steps, identifies existing or potential hazards at each step, and determines the best way to reduce or eliminate those hazards. It's one of the most common workplace safety tools used across industries.
What are the steps of a Job Hazard Analysis?
A JHA follows four main steps: (1) Select the job to analyze, prioritizing high-risk or incident-prone tasks, (2) Break the job into a sequence of steps, (3) Identify hazards at each step, including environmental, ergonomic, and equipment-related risks, and (4) Determine preventive measures — engineering controls, administrative controls, or PPE — to eliminate or reduce each hazard.
What is the difference between a JHA and a JSA?
There is no practical difference. A Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) and a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) follow the same process: break a job into steps, identify hazards, define controls. The name varies by company, industry, and region. Some organizations use other terms like Task Hazard Analysis (THA). JSABuilder supports all terminology and lets you customize the document title.
Does OSHA require a Job Hazard Analysis?
OSHA does not have a specific standard requiring JHAs, but they strongly recommend the practice. OSHA publication 3071, "Job Hazard Analysis," provides detailed guidance. Under the General Duty Clause, employers must provide a workplace free from recognized hazards, and a JHA is one of the most straightforward ways to demonstrate that effort.
How do you identify hazards in a JHA?
Observe the job being performed, talk to workers who do the task regularly, review incident and near-miss records, and check manufacturer guidelines for equipment involved. Look for anything that could cause harm: moving parts, chemical exposure, working at heights, electrical hazards, ergonomic strain, or environmental conditions. JSABuilder includes predefined hazard lists organized by category to help ensure nothing gets missed.
When should a JHA be updated?
Review and update a JHA at least once a year, after any incident or near-miss involving the job, when the job process changes, when new equipment is introduced, or when workers identify new hazards. A JHA that hasn't been reviewed in years is a liability. JSABuilder sends automated review reminders to keep your worksheets current.
