Job Description

Every person goes home in one piece. That is the job on this high-rise residential project in Pretoria East. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

You'll be based at a high-rise residential project in Pretoria East. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

What your day looks like

  • Compile and maintain the site health and safety file under the Construction Regulations 2014
  • Audit subcontractor safety files before they start work
  • Prepare monthly safety statistics for the client's agent
  • Inspect scaffolds, excavations and edge protection daily
  • Keep appointment letters and competency certificates in the file
  • Hold toolbox talks on topics that match the week's work

You'll need

  • SACPCMP registration as a Construction Health and Safety Officer
  • Good understanding of the OHS Act and Construction Regulations 2014
  • You write clear reports in English
  • SAMTRAC or an NQF-accredited health and safety qualification
  • At least 2 years as a safety officer on construction sites
  • Confident enough to stop unsafe work, even when the programme is tight

On offer

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: copy of your ID (certified) plus SAMTRAC or safety qualification certificate.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 10 working days.
