Using Hazard Analysis
The ‘Hazard Analysis’ sub-module tracks assessments of jobs that involve potentially hazardous job tasks. Specify the necessary steps for performing potentially hazardous tasks, prioritize the level of potential hazard, and specify PPE (personal protection equipment) that should be used when performing the task.
In this sub-module, create ‘Task Step’ hazard analysis records, and within those records, define the potentially hazardous ‘Job Steps’ involved in completing the overall task.
A ‘Task Step’ is a task that an employee may be assigned as part of their duties. For example, a member of the maintenance staff may be responsible for the task of changing the fluorescent light bulbs in the ceiling, which would involve such steps as climbing a ladder. As this task involves steps that present potential hazards, a hazard analysis should be done on the task.
A ‘Task Step’ involves any number of ‘Job Steps’ that are involved in the completion of the overall task. In the example provided, the overall task of changing the ceiling bulbs would be deemed a ‘Task Step’, and the step of climbing the ladder would be deemed a ‘Job Step’.

The ‘Complete’, ‘Incomplete’ and ‘All’ radio buttons at the top of the browse screen can also be used to filter to between the records.
