Take 5 / Task 5 Training
The take 5 for safety process is a simple and effective way to increase safety awareness. There are a few variations to these such as StepBack. The process is basically taking 5 minutes to think about the hazards of the job. A take 5 does not replace a SWMS, JSA or risk assessment but rather engages the person to prepare the mind before the hands.
Job Safety Analysis & Job Hazard Analysis
JSA\JHA has been commonly used in industry for decades. A JSA\JHA is a form of risk assessment, which details step by step how the task is to be carried out safely.
There are many different terms for a job safety analysis; JSEA (Job Safety and Environment Analysis), JHA (Job Hazard Analysis), SJA (Safe Job Analysis), Pre-Work Safety Check however, all these terms mean the same thing.
Safe Work Method Statements
SWMS is a document that sets out the high risk construction work activities to be carried out at a workplace, the hazards arising from these activities and the measures to be implemented to control the risks.
A SWMS is generally different from other documents that focus on specific tasks or processes, such as a Job Safety Analysis or a Safe Operating Procedure. A SWMS is not intended to be a procedure—rather it is a tool to help supervisors and workers confirm and monitor the control measures required at the workplace.
