Montréal, Canada WSP Full time

**The Opportunity**:
The Regional Manager - HSE Risks Prevention Expertise Delivery for the region of Quebec is responsible for ensuring that the regional team of advisors, under his/her supervision, is consistently & competently proactively supporting and overseeing the Business Sectors’ staff & employees in implementing WSP Canada’s processes & controls for the prevention of injuries, illnesses, and environmental impacts, arising from activities of employees and subcontractors.

The Regional Manager ensures that the expertise delivery provided by the Risk Prevention Advisors is aligned with WSP Canada’s HSE Management System, regional regulatory requirements, as well as the orientations provided by the HSE VP and the Director of HSE Risks Prevention Expertise Delivery.

The Regional Manager is also the Business Partner of the Regional Executive Vice-President of Quebec; as such the Regional Manager must provide a fact-based and actionable picture to the EVP of the situation of the Region’s HSE performance, areas of weaknesses, and opportunities of improvements, and must provide advice to the EVP on how to positively influence the region towards continually improving injury prevention.

The Regional Manager - HSE Risk Prevention Expertise Delivery, must be able to articulate what prevention of I&I is all about in term of processes which his/her team of Advisors need to focus on, rather than on the reactive ones.

When overseeing the work of his/her team of advisors and advising the Operations, the Regional Manager must be able to regularly make links between concrete situations and WSP’s OHS policy and the following principles:

- Controls are selected according to the Hierarchy of Controls (HoC), aiming to eliminate the hazards/env. aspects, and when not possible, combining controls in descending order of effectiveness to minimise the risks as low as reasonably practicable.
- The HSE planning activities (risk assessment & determination of effective controls) are carried out at different phases of the Project Delivery Lifecyle, and as such, HSE Management must be integral to the Project Delivery Framework
- The effectiveness of controls and their adherence is measured, monitored, and/or observed, not presumed.
- Employees are given the tools, resources, and training to safely do their jobs, as identified in the HoC
- Events (incident, non-compliance, & nearmiss) reporting is encouraged as an opportunity to learn about the deficiencies of the controls, not as a way to find culprits.
- The HSE Team assesses the actual/potential severity and the frequency of the events. Those found significant are investigated and analysed using a robust root cause analysis process, which aims at implementing effective corrective action to eliminate the identified systemic causes.
- Employees at all levels & functions are consulted and participate in the identification of hazards/significant env. aspects & determination of their controls, their evaluation of performance, and their improvement, and events investigation
- Managers and Leaders go to the Gemba (location of the actual work) to observe how the work is done, how risks are identified and mitigated through the hierarchy of controls, and verify with the workers if the means are their disposal are sufficient, adequate & effective Contractors & third-parties’ hazards are identified & assessed; their significant risks controlled as they arise for their activities & operation that impact WSP’s employees, as they impact their own employees & other interested parties
