• Author and prepare accurate, timely technical health and safety reports for use by operations, engineering, and the corporate ESH hierarchy.
• Maintain absolute emergency readiness, providing rapid first-aid direction and organizing specialized mine rescue or emergency management teams as needed.
• Manage the safety check-in and compliance validation processes for all external parties, ensuring a safe transition from the facility gates to loading zones.
• Act as an operational bridge between sales teams, central dispatch, and field crews to optimize traffic control, manage equipment congestion, and maintain a safe velocity of site operations during high-volume periods.
