Site – Specific Job Hazard Analysis Instructions

Severity: Determining the impact that the transfer of energy will have on the target person or object
Probability (Likelihood): Determining the likelihood that the hazard will result in a transfer of unintended energy
Frequency: Determining how often the target can reasonably be expected to be exposed to the hazard

A physical hazard is a physical factor or material thing (including the environment) that has the potential to transfer
energy by direct or indirect contact. There is a mechanical application of force to the target (such as contact with
moving parts, electricity and awkward body posture).

A chemical hazard is a substance that through its intrinsic properties or due to being handled has the potential to
cause harm or loss by direct contact or from a distance. The WHMIS classifications identify the regulated hazards of a
chemical (such as H2S and asbestos).

A biological hazard is an organism or substance derived from an organism that has the potential to cause harm or
loss by direct contact or from a distance (such as the hanta virus).

A psycho-social hazard is a specific situation that may cause mental or physical health problems. These problems, in
turn, can give rise to behavioral problems (such as absenteeism) or physical manifestations (such as ulcers or fatigue).
Psycho-social hazards are also called workplace stressors (such as excessive workload and bullying).

Severity Probability

1. Negligible/OK: Causing minor injury that requires 1. Extremely Remote: Unlikely to occur
first aid or less 2. Remote: Could occur at some point
2. Minor: Causing non-serious injury, illness, or 3. Reasonably Probable: Likely to occur eventually
damage that requires medical aid 4. Probable: Likely to occur immediately or soon
3. Serious: Causing severe injury, serious illness, that is
disabling or lifelong, or property and equipment Multiply Severity by Probability according to the chart
damage below to determine the risk.
4. Imminent danger: Causing death, widespread
occupational illness, or loss of facilities

Probability (Likelihood)

Low: CONTINUE WITH TASK. Ensure existing control measures are being used as intended. Watch for new hazards
to develop.
Medium: PAUSE. What new control measures can be introduced to reduce the risk?
Re-assess after new control measures are in place.
High: STOP. Can the hazard be eliminated? Can the task be completed in a different manner? Does the task have to
be completed at all?
Very High: STOP. Do not proceed. Contact the Supervisor to determine a course of action.

All affected workers and supervisors must sign off before work begins.
