## HSS Prep - continued

- I have been authorized to perform the work by completing a JHA and have discussed the work with my supervisor
- I have completed all formal and on-the-job training associated with my work

- I’ve thought about what work I plan on doing and have discussed it with my supervisor
- I talked about hazards, safety issues, potential problems with my supervisor
- I stop when unsure and get advice from my supervisor
- Where do you get information on safety, and who do you ask for help on safety issues?
- I speak with my Division Safety Coordinator, Betsy Reyes, and my supervisor, or I ask my colleagues for help on who to call
- I use Pub 3000, etc. that explains safety requirements
- If something changes in your work, what do you do?
- I ask my supervisor if this is something we need to add to my JHA
- I don’t assume it’s ok to just “try something” because I will only be doing it for a short while
