A job safety analysis (JSA) is an effective technique to identify and eliminate or control hazards of work performed at onshore and offshore E&P operations. Recognized by OSHA as an "effective means of helping reduce incidents, accidents, and injuries in the workplace," JSAs are now required for offshore operations governed by SEMs (30 CFR 250.1911 (b)), and for those companies participating in OHSA's Voluntary Protection Program (VPP). JSAs, which can be used even when a work permit is not required, should be prepared with input from supervisors and workers, signed as appropriate, reviewed often and updated as necessary. JSAs can serve as an effective communication tool, and since they involve everyone performing the job, can aid in training new workers to implement safe work practices. JSAs can also be used to focus your overall training and develop better hazard controls, and can be invaluable in accident and incident investigations.

Yes, The supervisor or the PIC as determined by the company can approve the JSA
electronically, through email, by a web- based program or in writing. It is up
to the operator.
Does the approval require a signature? If so, is an electronic signature acceptable?
JSAs must be signed off after a visual onsite inspection by the PIC is conducted. An electronic signature is acceptable.
Should a JSA be conducted for each general operation or the immediate task at hand?
The operator needs to develop and implement a task level JSA for all activities addressed in their SEMS programs in accordance 30 CFR 250.1911(b).
