FACILEX® ATOMIC

Job Hazard Analysis Software for Nuclear Quality Assurance

Plan work safely by breaking activities into defined steps, identifying associated hazards and establishing the controls required before work begins.

Connect job hazards with controls, worker qualifications, prerequisites, approvals and pre-job communication through a consistent, governed process.

The Challenge

Safe work depends on understanding the job before it starts.

Nuclear work can involve complex equipment, hazardous energy, radiological conditions, chemicals, lifting, confined spaces, elevated work and simultaneous activities involving multiple organizations.

The challenge is translating those conditions into a practical work plan. Hazards must be identified at the appropriate job step, controls must be specific to the exposure, and personnel must understand both before execution begins.

A generic checklist can confirm that a topic was considered, but it does not necessarily demonstrate how the hazard relates to the work or whether the required controls, qualifications and prerequisites are actually in place.

Job Hazard Analysis must answer:

What work is being performed and where?
What are the significant steps in the job?
What hazards are associated with each step?
What controls are required before and during the work?
Are personnel qualified and prerequisites satisfied?
Has the work team reviewed and understood the plan?

Why It Matters Now

▤

Work is broken into meaningful steps

Analyze the actual sequence of work rather than relying only on a generic hazard checklist.

△

Hazards stay connected to the task

Associate hazards with the specific job steps where exposure or unsafe conditions may occur.

✓

Controls become explicit

Define engineering, administrative and protective measures required to perform each step safely.

●

People and qualifications matter

Identify required roles, competencies, training and authorization before personnel are assigned to the work.

◆

Changing conditions can be recognized

Establish boundaries and triggers requiring work to stop and the hazard analysis to be reconsidered.

↻

Experience improves future work

Capture lessons from execution so recurring activities benefit from previous job experience.

Job Hazard Analysis Lifecycle

A configurable lifecycle connects work definition and task breakdown with hazard identification, control selection, validation, pre-job communication and safe execution.

Define

Establish the work scope, location, boundaries and responsible organization.

Break Down

Divide the work into meaningful steps suitable for hazard evaluation.

Identify Hazards

Identify hazards, exposures and potential consequences for each job step.

Establish Controls

Define controls, protective measures and prerequisites for safe execution.

Validate

Confirm controls, qualifications, permits and prerequisites are appropriate.

Brief & Authorize

Review the plan with the work team and obtain required authorization.

Execute & Close

Perform the work, respond to changing conditions and capture lessons learned.
