What is a Behavioral Job Safety Analysis-BJSA

• A BJSA is a tool in which we plan our work,
  identify hazards, mitigate the hazards, and
  assign the responsible people.
• It is basically the plan we will use to complete
  our work.

What is the purpose of the BJSA?

• The purpose of the BJSA is to document how we
  will complete our work in a manner that
  identifies and protects us from any hazards we
  may face.

6
Who should complete a BJSA?

• The BJSA should be completed by a person that is
  familiar with the task to be done and hazards we
  may face.
• It is usually done by a foreman or team lead.

• The entire crew should discuss the BJSA and
  complete it as team.
• A foreman may not notice something that a laborer
  sees as potentially hazardous.

7
When should we complete a BJSA?

• A BJSA should be completed before we start any
  task.
• If the task poses any hazards a BJSA is required.
  Normal office work would be an example of low
  risk task that would not need a BJSA

• If we finish with a task and start a new task not
  covered on the original BJSA then we need a new
  one.
• If conditions or hazards change then we need to
  updated and review the BJSA

8
Completing the BJSA

• Job Number, Elkhorn Office(Western Slope),Date
• Task Description-What are we going to do?
• What is the worst thing that may happen?
• Other permits associated with this BJSA
• Inspections required?
• Who are the TRAINED operators and spotters?

9
Completing the BJSA-Hazard ID tool

• The Hazard ID tool helps us to recognize hazards
  present during our work
• Circle the PPE required for this job task-Does
  everyone know how to use the PPE
• Circle all hazards present. We will mitigate or
  reduce them later in the BJSA
• Sketch our work area in the box
• Identify the location where we will muster and
  show it on the sketch

10
Completing the BJSA-the Job Safety Analysis

• Observable steps for the task
• Tools and Equipment used to complete the task
• Hazards we face while completing the task
• Steps to control or mitigate the hazards
• Who is responsible for the hazard control?

11
Completing the BJSA-Job Steps

• The job steps must be observable steps that we
  will do to complete the task. For example, Task
  Bolt 12 inch valve to metering skid. Dont make
  the steps too general, add enough detail so the
  steps are clear enough that those working on the
  task and others observing can understand what is
  to be done but they should not be a Standard
  Operating Procedure but a reminder of each
  general step of the task.
• A task should have 4-12 job steps. Too few steps
  will be too vague and more than 12 steps probably
  indicates a separate task that requires a
  separate BJSA. If additional room is needed, use
  a blank BJSA.
• Each step should note what is to be done, not how
  it is done.
• Keep the job steps in the correct order.

12
Completing the BJSA-Tools and Equipment

• Any tools or equipment needed for the job step
  should be listed. Having them available make our
  job safer and more efficient.
• Having them listed reminds us of hazards they may
  create.

13
Completing the BJSA-Hazards

• We need to identify any potential hazards we face
  at each job step. These can be large hazards like
  a crane dropping a load or a small hazard of bees
  being around.
• We should list any hazards identified on the
  Hazard ID tool (front page)
• The entire crew should list hazards. A group is
  more likely to think of all the hazards than a
  single person.
• An example may be sparks from grinding that can
  enter eyes or cause a fire

14
Completing the BJSA-Hazard Control

• Once we have identified the hazards, we need to
  write how we will eliminate or control the
  hazard.
• It is better to completely get rid of the hazard
  if possible. For example weld pipe on the ground
  instead of a heights to eliminate a fall hazard.
• If we cant do that, we should try to control the
  hazard. If we cant weld the pipe on the ground
  we may build a scaffold platform to reduce the
  fall hazard.
• The last form of protection should PPE. If we
  cant weld the pipe from scaffold then we would
  need to utilize a harness lanyard attached to
  an anchor point

15
Completing the BJSA-Hazard Control

• Be specific in how we will control the hazard.
  Avoid phrases like use PPE. It should be
  something like wear ear plugs and ear muffs
  while working in the compressor building.
• Keep the BJSA organized in a way that it is easy
  to see what we should be doing to protect
  ourselves. That can be listing the hazard on one
  line and listing the mitigation on the same line
  to the right. You may also number a hazard as 1
  and label the mitigation with the same 1.

16
Completing the BJSA-Hazard Control Responsibility

• Once we have identified the hazard, talked about
  how we will deal with the hazard, then we will
  assign someone to be responsible for the hazard
  control.
• This may be one person that will wear hearing
  protection while grinding or the entire crew
  working next to a compressor.
• If a person is assigned, they need to make sure
  that they have taken care of the hazard before
  work starts.

17
Signatures, Auditing, and SSEs

• Print who completed the BJSA, the foreman that
  reviewed it prior to the start of work, and who
  audits the form.
• The crew should sign it once they review the
  BJSA. By signing it they agree that they
  understand it, agree to follow what it says, and
  they understand they must stop the work if we are
  not following our plan.
• They should also circle Y/N if they are a short
  service employee to let others know that they may
  need additional guidance.

18
Utilizing the BJSA

• The BJSA is a tool that will only protect us if
  we follow what it says. It takes everyone
  following the plan for it be effective.
• The BJSA must be in place BEFORE we start the
  work. You are not permitted to go to work until
  it is completed correctly.
• If conditions or our job steps change, we need to
  address those changes on the BJSA.
• Remember if we finish one task before days end,
  we need to develop another BJSA to start a new
  task.

19
BJSA Meet Greet

• If others are entering our work area, we need to
  greet them, ask them to review sign our BJSA.
• This could be other Elkhorn work groups, client
  personnel, or other contractors.
• If you enter another groups work area ask to
  review their BJSA. You will be exposed to the
  same hazards they face, so you need to know how
  to protect yourself.

20
BJSA Group Practice

• As a group, complete a BJSA for changing a flat
  tire on a pickup truck.
• Review the previous slides if needed to assist in
  the process.
