  • Ensure strict compliance with OSHA, and EPA regulations, specifically regarding dust control, emissions, and lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures.
  • Proactively identify and mitigate workplace hazards; participate in safety meetings
  • Maintain accurate daily production logs, maintenance records, and fuel/oil usage reports via company software
