Job Description

The road construction project in Boksburg needs a safety officer who is on the site, not stuck in the container office. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

The site is in Boksburg; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.

What you'll actually do

  • Prepare monthly safety statistics for the client's agent
  • Compile and maintain the site health and safety file under the Construction Regulations 2014
  • Keep appointment letters and competency certificates in the file
  • Write and review risk assessments and safe work method statements
  • Inspect scaffolds, excavations and edge protection daily

Must-haves

  • Good understanding of the OHS Act and Construction Regulations 2014
  • At least 2 years as a safety officer on construction sites
  • Confident enough to stop unsafe work, even when the programme is tight
  • First Aid Level 1 at least
  • SACPCMP registration as a Construction Health and Safety Officer

Helpful, not essential

  • ISO 45001 internal auditor course
  • Fall protection planner training

On offer

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

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: SACPCMP registration certificate plus SAMTRAC or safety qualification certificate.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 8 working days.

Tips to get shortlisted
