How often should a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) be reviewed?
Last reviewed July 5, 2026
A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) should be reviewed whenever there's a change in the work process, new equipment is introduced, or after an incident. Regular reviews every 12 months help keep it relevant and effective.
Key points
- Review after process changes or incidents.
- Regular reviews every 12 months.
- Keep JSA relevant to current work conditions.
JSAs should reflect the current risks and controls on site. If something changes, like new machinery or a different task, update the JSA to match. This keeps everyone safe and compliant with WHS regulations.
