Safety Officer – ESHARAQA CONTRACTING
Description
The role of a Safety Officer is a cornerstone in maintaining workplace safety and ensuring regulatory compliance across industrial projects. At ESHARAQA CONTRACTING, Safety Officers are tasked with overseeing the safety of operations, particularly in Jubail, a hub for industrial and construction activities. The purpose of this role is to protect personnel, assets, and the work environment by identifying potential hazards, enforcing safety procedures, and fostering a culture of safety awareness. In the construction and industrial sectors, particularly in high-risk environments such as chemical plants, substations, and large-scale civil projects, Safety Officers play an essential role in minimizing accidents and ensuring operational efficiency.
A Safety Officer ensures that all safety protocols are implemented and adhered to, ranging from the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) to emergency response readiness. Their presence is vital not only for compliance with Saudi labor laws and industrial safety standards but also to maintain a proactive approach to hazard prevention, thus safeguarding the company’s reputation and workforce.
Key Responsibilities
The Safety Officer at ESHARAQA CONTRACTING is responsible for planning, implementing, and monitoring safety measures on-site. Daily duties include conducting regular inspections of work areas, identifying potential hazards, and taking corrective actions to mitigate risks. Safety Officers must ensure that all personnel adhere to safety regulations and company policies, while also conducting safety briefings, toolbox talks, and training sessions to promote awareness.
Additionally, Safety Officers document incidents, near misses, and safety inspections, generating reports for management review. They coordinate closely with site supervisors, engineers, and contractors to ensure that safety standards are consistently maintained throughout the project lifecycle. Given the room-to-room duty requirement, Safety Officers are expected to monitor specific work areas closely, maintaining a vigilant presence and immediate response capability. Transportation between sites is provided by the company, allowing officers to focus entirely on safety responsibilities.
Skills and Knowledge
Candidates must possess strong knowledge of industrial safety practices, occupational health regulations, and emergency response procedures. Good English communication skills are essential to coordinate effectively with diverse teams, document reports accurately, and conduct training sessions.
Practical experience in construction, industrial, or similar environments is highly valued. Candidates must be able to conduct risk assessments, implement preventive measures, and respond efficiently to emergency situations. Mandatory documentation includes Chamber registration and an original passport for identification purposes. The role demands attention to detail, proactivity, leadership skills, and the ability to foster a safety-first mindset among workers.
