Key Responsibilities Develop, implement, and enforce company safety policies, procedures, and programs. Ensure compliance with OSHA standards, federal, state, and local safety regulations. Conduct regular safety audits and inspections of fabrication operations, field erection activities, jobsites, fleet operations, and maintenance activities, including risk assessments to identify and mitigate hazards.

Develop and conduct safety training programs for employees, supervisors, and subcontractors. Maintain all required safety documentation, records, and regulatory reports, including OSHA 300, 300A, and 301 logs, while ensuring all reporting requirements are completed accurately and on time. Develop, monitor, and maintain leading and lagging safety performance indicators (recordable incidents, lost-time incidents, near misses, corrective actions, training completion, and safety audit results); prepare reports for management. Monitor and actively manage the company's Experience Modification Rate (EMR) and work with management, insurance carriers, and brokers to identify opportunities for improvement. Coordinate emergency response planning, drills, and preparedness activities. Collaborate with Operations, Fabrication, Field, Maintenance, Quality, and Project Management leadership to integrate safety into daily operations and planning, establish safety goals, and drive continuous improvement initiatives. Participate in pre-job planning meetings, project kickoffs, and operational reviews to proactively identify and mitigate risks. Manage subcontractor and contractor safety compliance when applicable. Support customer prequalification requirements, safety questionnaires, ISNetworld, Avetta, and other contractor qualification systems as required. Serve as the primary point of contact during OSHA inspections and regulatory audits. Promote employee engagement in safety initiatives and foster a proactive safety culture.
