This discipline implies that risks are treated methodically in order to reduce and control the probability of feared events, as well as their possible impact.

Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a method of anticipating and analyzing hazards and risks in the workplace. It is a rigorous process, a tool to be favoured by any worker who is about to perform a task, and it usually takes only a few minutes to complete. It raises team awareness of the importance of health and safety, identifies risks by breaking down tasks into steps, develops accident prevention tools, and encourages the adoption of an occupational health and safety culture. It also helps prevent serious accidents and save lives.

In some work environments, there may be contaminants present as gases, fumes, vapors, dusts or mists. In those cases, wear a respiratory protective equipment adapted to the contaminant to protect your respiratory tract. This training will allow you to learn more about the equipment available and how to adjust it.

Risks considered as critical are those that can cause serious permanent damage or even death to workers.
Each type of work or operation causes different critical risks. Therefore, it is important not only to know the critical risks, but to target and prioritize each specific intervention for each environment.
