Maintain comprehensive knowledge of OSHA standards (such as 1926) to ensure strict adherence to all regulations, serving as the point of contact for site safety issues/incidents.
Review daily safety audits and observations, safety logs and produce high-level weekly/monthly safety reports for management, tracking leading/lagging KPIs (e.g., TRIR/DART) to improve safety performance on site.
Develop, implement, and update site-specific training, site-specific contingency and emergency action plans.
