About Us

The Ministry of Social Services supports vulnerable people and families as they build a better quality of life. We help people with their immediate needs and provide supports for: families to safely care for their children, children and youth in care to be successful, people with disabilities to access community-based services, access to affordable housing, and income assistance to meet people’s basic needs as they work to become self-sufficient to the best of their abilities. Together with Indigenous and community partners, we work to make a positive difference in the lives of our clients every day.

The Opportunity

The Ministry of Social Services has an exciting opportunity for a flexible, self-starter to join the Health & Safety Unit as a Safety Analyst. The ideal candidate will be instrumental in continuous improvements in health and safety performance in the ministry. Our candidate of choice will demonstrate the values of excellence and innovation, respect and integrity, and working as one team.

Your primary duties will be to:
  • Manage the central incident reporting process, conduct incident investigations, and oversee workplace inspections.
  • Conduct analytical review assessments, trend analysis, evaluations, and statistical reporting of incidents and illness reports.
  • Design and conduct research specific to ministry safety issues/trends, conduct literature reviews and inter-jurisdictional scans, and obtain relevant/appropriate safety information from credible national/international sources.
  • Coordinate and/or research safety training programs addressing both physical and psychological safety issues.
  • As part of a team, contribute to the development of safety policies, safe work practices, safe operating procedures, safety bulletins, and performance measure indicators for the safety management system.

  • Manage the ministry Health and Safety SharePoint site.
  • Work within a small yet dynamic Health and Safety team delivering safety solutions to a wide variety of professionals within the ministry.
Ideal Candidate

In order to be successful in the role, you will have:

  • Excellent oral/written communication skills to share information to a variety of audiences that persuades, convinces, builds support, educates and promotes understanding.
