• Participate in incident investigations, root cause analysis, documentation, and development of corrective actions designed to prevent recurrence.

• Assist with safety orientation and reorientation for new and existing employees as needed.
• Collaborate with project managers and field leadership to address safety concerns and continuously improve jobsite safety practices.
