As of September 2012, CRU requires that federal scientists, students, and all employees (research associates, field technicians, data technicians, etc.) of each Cooperative Research Unit, complete a Job Hazard Analyses (JHA) and training. After completion of a JHA, each employee is to review it with his/her supervisor. It is up to the supervisor to track compliance with both generating JHAs and completing and documenting the required training they identify.
Below is a link to a Powerpoint presentation that walks people through setting up an account within "Digital Measures" and through the process of generating a JHA report.Digital Measures and Job Hazard Analysis - Required Training
