Activity Hazard Analysis

An activity hazards analysis (AHA), also known as a job safety analysis (JSA) or job hazard analysis (JHA), is described by the US Army Corps of Engineers as "a documented process by which the steps (procedures) required to accomplish a work activity are outlined, the actual or potential hazards of each step are identified, and measures for the elimination or control of those hazards are developed." (USACE EM 385-1-1)
