  • Participate in safety huddles, tailgate meetings, and project planning sessions.
  • Empower employees to use their Stop Work Authority and voice safety concerns.

  • Bilingual (Spanish & English)
  • Minimum 4 years of construction safety experience
  • OSHA 30-Hour Construction Certification
