· Support daily job briefings, tailboard meetings, toolbox talks, and job hazard analyses before work begins and when site conditions change.

· Coach crews on company safety expectations, PPE use, housekeeping, work-zone awareness, equipment safety, and safe work procedures.

· Assist in monitoring work near energized or potentially energized lines and equipment, including awareness of minimum approach distances, arc flash hazards, and qualified-worker requirements.

· Support verification that de-energizing, lockout/tagout, testing, grounding, and equipotential bonding practices are addressed through approved procedures when applicable.

· Observe fall protection practices for climbing, elevated work, structures, aerial lifts, and bucket trucks, and escalate concerns when controls are missing or ineffective.

· Assist with safety orientation, onboarding, field training support, and reinforcement of site-specific safety requirements.

· Document safety observations, inspections, near misses, incidents, corrective actions, and follow-up items accurately and timely.

· Participate in incident response, preliminary fact gathering, root cause review, and corrective action tracking as directed by safety leadership.

· Help maintain safety records, inspection logs, training documentation, SDS information, and other compliance-related files.

· Monitor the condition and readiness of company vehicles, safety equipment, first aid supplies, fire extinguishers, and field resources.

· Promote a professional, respectful, and proactive safety culture while partnering with field leaders to resolve concerns quickly.

· Perform additional safety and field support duties as assigned.

Physical and Work Environment Requirements

· Ability to stand, walk, bend, climb, and navigate uneven terrain throughout the workday.

· Ability to lift, carry, push, or pull up to 50 pounds as needed.

· Comfortable working outdoors in heat, cold, rain, and changing weather conditions.

· Ability to work flexible schedules, including nights, weekends, extended hours, or emergency response support based on project needs.

· Ability to safely travel long distances throughout Georgia on a regular basis.

· Strong communication, teamwork, follow-through, and attention to detail.

Experience and Core Requirements

· Entry-level safety candidates are encouraged to apply; prior construction, utility, electrical, transmission line, or heavy civil field experience is preferred.

· One to five years of construction or utility experience is beneficial, but equivalent military, trade school, technical school, or field-based experience will be considered.

· Ability to learn and apply company safety procedures, OSHA requirements, and transmission construction safety practices.

· Ability to communicate professionally with crews, supervision, contractors, customers, and safety leadership.
