  • Prepare reports based on safety documentation, hazard assessments, and toolbox talks.
  • Facilitate and participate in incident investigations and risk assessments; develop corrective actions and ensure follow-up on action items for compliance.
  • Conduct site inspections and recommend corrective measures.
  • Engage in Health and Safety Committee activities, ensuring regular meetings and inspections occur, follow-up actions are executed, and that necessary memberships and certifications are maintained.
