Job Description

You'll keep the site legal and the workers safe for the municipal infrastructure project in Ballito. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

  • Run site inductions for every new worker and visitor
  • Write and review risk assessments and safe work method statements
  • Keep appointment letters and competency certificates in the file
  • Prepare monthly safety statistics for the client's agent
  • Track PPE issues and replace damaged equipment

You'll need

  • SAMTRAC or an NQF-accredited health and safety qualification
  • Good understanding of the OHS Act and Construction Regulations 2014
  • SACPCMP registration as a Construction Health and Safety Officer
  • Confident enough to stop unsafe work, even when the programme is tight
  • First Aid Level 1 at least

What's in it for you

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