JHA, JSA & AHA: From Task to Control
Describe the work. Explain the exposure. Choose a control the crew can check.
The complete free basic track is available. Three modules take you from a weak row to a short analysis and a usable crew brief. Each includes six lessons, two decisions, a five-question knowledge check and a reusable worksheet. Allow about 15–20 minutes per module, plus your written practice; this is an estimate, not measured seat time.
Start with Task | Hazard | Control
For supervisors, crew leads and people learning to prepare or review a JHA, JSA or AHA. No prior course is required. Work through a fictional cart-movement case, then apply the method to different conditions. Compare your reasoning with the published drywall and concrete-saw examples.
The 20 public examples, draft builders and Word/PDF templates remain free to everyone without an account. The course adds guided learning, practice and account progress.

Module 02
Build a useful basic JHA/JSA
Define the worksite, build a sequence with the crew, pair hazards and controls, and resolve open actions.
Short analysis and open-action worksheet
Module 03
Use the plan before work
Brief the crew, verify controls, pause for changed conditions and establish restart readiness.
Crew brief and change response worksheet
Keep a workbook you can reuse
Draft a row, build a short analysis and prepare a crew brief. Each activity includes a different case, blank practice space, a worked response and a five-part self-review rubric.

Included with free Safety & Systems or Both membership. Written practice is self-reviewed; it is not automatically graded or saved to your account. Lesson progress and assessments are saved. Use Save and exit and wait for confirmation before closing a lesson.
What basic completion means
Complete all lessons and decisions and answer all five questions correctly in each module check. Feedback and retakes are available. Passing all three records basic-track completion in your account. The five-part worksheet rubric is a learning aid and does not replace site review or authorization.
This is unproctored knowledge practice, not observed job competence, certification or full-course completion. Applying the plan at work still requires confirmed site conditions, effective controls and your required review and authorization.
Paid applied training · Modules 4–6
Move from risk ratings to verified controls and revisions when work changes. Start with free Modules 1–3, then allow about 15–25 minutes plus written practice per applied module. Each includes six lessons, two decisions, a five-question check and reusable Word/PDF worksheets. All five answers must be correct; feedback and retakes are available.
Modules 4–6 require paid Safety & Systems or All Access entitlement. New paid enrollment is closed. Free membership opens Modules 1–3.

Module 04
Risk assessment and matrices
Defend initial and planned after-control ratings, examine assumptions and verify control effectiveness.
Risk reasoning worksheet and interactive teaching matrix
Work through the forklift risk case and an interactive teaching matrix. The original instructional matrix is not the USACE RAC matrix.
Module 05
Controls that work in practice
Explain protective function, examine control dependencies, and document installation, use and effectiveness with evidence.
Control-verification and follow-up worksheet
Use concrete-saw and forklift examples to distinguish installation, use and effectiveness. Record criteria, safe checks, evidence and follow-up.
Module 06
Changing and interacting work
Revise the analysis when scope, conditions or neighboring work change; coordinate shared controls and the required restart decision.
Changed-work revision and handover worksheet
Revise a changed forklift analysis, coordinate interacting activities, and record evidence, restrictions and receiving-shift communication.
Applied module completion is recorded separately from the free basic track. Written worksheets are self-reviewed and are not saved to your account. Full-course completion is not available yet.
Coming next · Modules 7–10
The remaining advanced modules are in development for paid membership. Basic Modules 1–3 and the public resource series remain free.
- AHA and EM 385-1-1 — Develop an AHA using the applicable USACE and project requirements.
- AHA risk and readiness — Connect the specified risk method to review, acceptance and readiness.
- Review and improve an analysis — Find consequential gaps and make defensible revisions.
- Capstone and completion — Build, review and defend an integrated analysis.
The AHA reference is EM 385-1-1, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual. Advanced content will address the applicable edition, project requirements, risk matrix and AHA readiness process.
