Health & Safety Advisor

at  US Compliance

Are you passionate about safety? Do you enjoy a challenge and like working in a fast-paced environment? Do you get excited about building relationships and making a difference in your community?
If you’ve answered “YES” to the above, the Environmental Health and Safety Client Advisor role at U.S. Compliance is for you!
Our EHS Client Advisors work closely with industrial facilities across North America to provide technical and regulatory support with health & safety (OSHA) and environmental compliance.
As the primary point of contact for a client, advisors complete facility inspections and site assessments, develop site-specific safety programs, conduct employee safety and environmental training, and lead safety committee meetings.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Environmental Health & Safety Advisors at U.S. Compliance focus on four pillars:

• Employee training
• Program and procedure development
• Safety committee meetings
• Facility walkthrough inspections.

We’re looking for someone with a bachelor’s degree, with preference for candidates with at least 3-5 years of experience in occupational safety in a manufacturing environment.
Candidates should also have experience in the development and implementation of safety programs, as well as working knowledge of 29 CFR 1910 and other OSHA/safety regulations, including state or regional-specific requirements. Although not required, candidates with bilingual Spanish skills are highly valued.
People who excel in this role have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, an aptitude for sound decision-making, and the ability to assert good judgment.
Our one-of-a-kind Compliance as a Service (CaaS) model allows us to build lasting relationships with our clients and become an extension of their team. We integrate into our client organizations and work with their team to foster a positive culture around environmental, health, and safety.
If you enjoy travel, this role is especially for you, as our advisors service clients both locally (commuting) and out-of-region (traveling), with an average number of overnight stays around 6-8 per month. Our excellent corporate team will assist in scheduling employees to earn and keep travel rewards, and our team members earn daily food and beverage per diem, and are reimbursed for business mileage.

While one of the draws of the Environmental Health and Safety Advisor role is the variety and mobility it brings, there are certain functions of the job you can expect routinely:

• Provide on-site visits to assigned clients
• Perform compliance audits, periodic training, and routine facility inspections to identify areas of concern
• Prepare agendas and follow-up reports to client contacts before and after each visit
• Develop, write, and edit OSHA-compliant programs, providing up-to-date versions to clients utilizing our EHS Gateway platform
• Facilitate safety committee and emergency response team (ERT) meetings
• Perform industrial hygiene surveys and conduct respective testing (air/noise)
• Manage daily activities and tasks through the company’s internal software (MS Dynamics/PSA)
• Research additional regulations and apply them to industrial equipment and operations
• Perform applicability assessments and data collection alongside our Environmental Division
• Complete special projects as assigned, including lockout (LO/TO) procedure development, Job Hazard Assessment development (JHAs), and DOT/RCRA seminar
