Enhancing the Effectiveness of Job Briefings (Part 1)

Focusing on the Form: In the world of utility line work, 'The Form' – be it a Job Brief Form, JSA, JHA, or any other title – has undergone a subtle but significant transformation. Originally designed as a record of conversation, it's now often the starting point, overshadowing the crucial discussions it was meant to document.

KnowledgeVine studied over 100,000 OSHA incidents and discovered that more than 25% of accidents occurred because individuals were unclear about their responsibilities or those meant to ensure their safety were unaware of their duties. Surprisingly, less than 10% of Job Safety Analyses (JSAs) emphasize the importance of knowing your role, indicating a significant gap in our current practices.  Join us for a discussion about enhancing the effectiveness of job briefings in a two-part series this month and next, including the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML).
