JOB SUMMARY

This is a full-time position for an 18 months term appointment with the possibility for an extension depending on the availability of future funding. The Research Lead is an integral member of the Partnership for Work, Health and Safety (the Partnership). Occupational health and safety management systems (OHSMS) are effective tools for preventing workplace injury and illness. The incumbent will be responsible for all aspects of framework and tool design and development to create an occupational health and safety management approach and tool specific to small and micro construction firms. This role will lead the project on a day-to-day in consultation with the Principal Investigator. Will conduct environmental scans, triangulate evidence, conduct key informant interviews and focus groups, facilitate expert advisory groups, analyze data, develop OHSMS framework and tool in collaboration with stakeholders and report writing.

ORGANIZATIONAL STATUS

The Partnership for Work, Health and Safety (the Partnership) is a research program within the School of Population and Public Health (SPPH), Faculty of Medicine at the University of British Columbia. This innovative research program conducted in partnership with WorkSafeBC (the Workers' Compensation Board of British Columbia) brings together policymakers, researchers and data resources from both organizations as well as external partners to address current and emerging issues of work-related health and workers' compensation. The Partnership uses mixed methods, both qualitative and quantitative, to evaluate the effectiveness of occupational health and workers' compensation programs and policies. The Partnership takes the lead in work-related health research in BC and Canada by developing and promoting the use of routinely collected health and compensation data from multiple sources via our data partner, Population Data BC. Our research results inform the design of evidence-based policies and prevention programs to create safer and more secure workplaces and help improve opportunities for recovery after injuries occur.

Housed within the Faculty of Medicine, the School of Population and Public Health (SPPH) is an innovative unit that encompasses many of the health-related groupings at UBC as a collaborative venture. The School is structured around four divisions: Occupational and Environmental Health; Health Services and Policy; Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Public Health Practice; and Health in Populations. The resulting mix of professions and disciplines is seen as a means of connecting individuals and learners to galvanize the relationship between health research, public health and health services and to enhance learning.

The Research Lead will work in a team environment with statisticians, analysts, programmers, researchers and faculty at SPPH. This position will be hybrid, and while on-site, will work on the third floor of the OEH division on SPPH at the University of British Columbia and work mostly virtually from home. A shared space will be provided in room 328. This position conducts site visits throughout the province with regular exposure to hazards such as noise, dust, and adverse weather conditions. Use of personal protective equipment may be required during site visits.
