Construction Health and Safety Agent

The high-rise residential project in Boksburg needs a safety officer who is on the site, not stuck in the container office. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

This post is in Boksburg (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Hold toolbox talks on topics that match the week's work
• Run site inductions for every new worker and visitor
• Inspect scaffolds, excavations and edge protection daily
• Prepare monthly safety statistics for the client's agent
• Compile and maintain the site health and safety file under the Construction Regulations 2014
• Check that fall protection plans are in place for work at height
• Investigate incidents and near misses and report them on time

• Confident enough to stop unsafe work, even when the programme is tight
• You write clear reports in English
• At least 2 years as a safety officer on construction sites
• SAMTRAC or an NQF-accredited health and safety qualification

• Clear growth path to a construction health and safety agent role
• Paid SACPCMP renewal and CPD
• Laptop and data for reporting
• Travel and site allowances

• Bring a sample risk assessment or safety file index you drew up (remove client names). It shows your work better than a list.
• Put your SACPCMP registration number and category first. Many CVs without it are rejected without being read.
