• Follow up incidents - support the reporting, triage and investigation of accidents, incidents and near misses, helping turn what we learn into meaningful improvements.
• Keep risk on track - maintain our health and safety risk register, support risk assessments and help teams put practical controls in place.
• Support emergency readiness - help maintain emergency response plans and coordinate testing, training and preparedness activities.
• Make safety part of everyday conversations - support managers and teams with health and safety advice, training and practical guidance.
• Keep our systems sharp - maintain health and safety records, reporting and systems, including audit, incident and improvement activities.
• Support our Health, Safety and Wellbeing Committee - coordinate meetings, actions, training and records.
