Mine Safety Officer (Underground) – Immediate Start

Plan inspections, lead investigations and build a safer shift culture at the mining contractor on a platinum lease near Mokopane. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The site is in Mokopane; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Hours are mostly Monday to Friday, with the odd Saturday in busy months.

• Take dust, noise and heat measurements with the occupational hygiene team
• Train safety representatives and support the health and safety committee
• Check that crews do planned task observations and pre-shift checks
• Review baseline and issue-based risk assessments with section managers
• Keep legal appointments and code of practice records current

• Code 08 licence for moving around the mine property
• SAMTRAC or an MQA-accredited mine safety qualification
• Detailed knowledge of the MHSA and its regulations
• Registered with SAIOSH, or working toward it

• Standby allowance for incident call-outs
• Retirement fund and medical aid
• CPD and further study funded
• Company vehicle on site

• Give numbers: how many investigations you led, or how the LTIFR changed in your section.
• Mention the commodity and whether you worked underground. Mines prefer someone who knows their hazards.
