Safety Manager Jobs

A Safety Manager in the human resources industry is responsible for developing and implementing safety protocols and procedures to ensure a safe and secure working environment. They are tasked with conducting regular safety audits, training staff on safety regulations and practices, and investigating accidents or incidents to identify their causes and find ways to prevent them in the future.
