Safety Council Sponsors Session on Preventing Accidents and Reducing Costs

Register today to learn how to prevent accidents while reducing costs during a one-day workshop at Louisiana State University (LSU) sponsored in part by the Safety Council of Louisiana Capital Area. The workshop will focus on the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and Pre-Task Hazard Analysis (THA). While these two items are powerful accident prevention tools, they are often misunderstood and misused, yielding a poor return on investment.
Upon completion of the workshop, you will be able to:
  • Describe various methods of performing a JSA and the benefits of each
  • Explain hazard recognition and control techniques
  • Perform and document a JSA and a THA
  • Demonstrate how to use a completed JSA as part of the training process
  • Teach others how to perform a JSA and THA
  • Implement a JSA/THA program at the worksite
