In the workplace, one simple human error can lead to a severe accident or injury. It takes a trained mind to evaluate the relationship between the worker, the task, the work area, the tools, and the equipment. A job hazard analysis allows supervisors to find the potential hazards before they occur. Comprehensive job hazard analyses do not only reduce injury and illness rates, but also save companies' money in workers’ compensation costs and downtime due to accidents.
