The reviews included conducting: Project Hazard Analysis (PHA) studies for occupational safety hazards for demolition and construction work activities. These studies addressed hazard identification, human factors, and facility siting. Each study included recommendations for risk reduction measures to achieve acceptable levels of risk.

Incident Investigations, Causal Factor Analyses & Root Cause Analyses

These major incident investigations involved a serious injury of a contractor employee and near-miss during construction work activities for a major capital project. JCL facilitated multi-disciplinary teams to conduct studies which involved multiple parties and support for regulatory compliance. Each investigation included Causal Factor Analyses and Root Cause Analyses to generate recommendations for correction of deficiencies, corrective actions to prevent recurrence, and preventive actions to prevent occurrences for future construction projects.
