What Is Job Safety?

Job Safety (JS) trains your people to analyze the chain of events leading to accidents and hazardous situations. On-the-job safety must consider three critical factors: physical conditions, personal conditions and cultural conditions. All three contribute to safety — and risk — in the workplace.

Physical conditions include the facility, equipment, workplace floor plan and traffic, lighting, signage, clothing and protective gear.

Personal conditions can involve knowledge, skills, abilities, emotions, supervisor/worker relationships, behaviors, routines, personal health and the like.

Cultural conditions are institutional in nature and involve policies, leadership attitudes, risk management procedures and related organizational behaviors and attitudes.

Job Safety training provides supervisors and workers with a framework for recognizing potential hazards, identifying root causes and eliminating them.

What We Will Cover

Job Safety, as is the case with all TWI Institute programs, is focused on the bigger picture: workplace safety, employee safety and risk mitigation for the business.

JS provides a proven and reliable system for elevating the employee engagement and participation necessary for advancing ongoing or planned continuous improvement, kaizen, lean and operational excellence initiatives.

Our end-to-end programming assures adoption and continuation of the benefits of TWI and Job Safety. Your TWI Institute coach will meet with management, managers, trainers, supervisors and team leaders to observe your TWI JS implementation. Your coach will gauge progress, identify problems, suggest solutions and help realign goals.

  • Assessing physical, personal and cultural factors
  • Identifying and anticipating the causes of risks and hazards
  • Evaluating potential repairs and prevention
  • Determining best approaches and solutions
  • Activating changes
  • Measuring results
