Job Title: Safety Officer / Work Permit Receiver / Fire Watch

Description

The role of a Safety Officer, Work Permit Receiver (WPR), and Fire Watch is crucial within industrial and construction environments such as those managed by Production Forearms Contracting Est. These professionals are responsible for ensuring workplace safety, compliance with site regulations, and the prevention of hazards during operations. The job is particularly important in high-risk industries like oil, gas, and petrochemical projects where the potential for accidents is significant. A well-trained and approved safety team ensures that work activities are performed safely, efficiently, and in line with SABIC and client safety standards.

Safety Officers approved by SHARQ and PETROKEMYA, along with Fire Watch and WPR professionals approved by SAFCO, are highly valued for their ability to maintain safe work environments. Their presence on-site promotes adherence to international safety norms, minimizes risks, and ensures that both manpower and property are protected. The importance of these roles cannot be overstated, as they contribute directly to productivity, compliance, and overall project success.

Key Responsibilities

A Safety Officer is responsible for implementing safety policies, conducting safety audits, and ensuring all workers comply with the established regulations. They inspect work areas regularly, identify potential hazards, and recommend preventive measures. They also organize safety training sessions, maintain incident records, and ensure all safety equipment is functioning properly.

The Work Permit Receiver (WPR) plays a vital role in managing and issuing permits for different work activities. They act as the communication bridge between the worksite and the client’s safety department, ensuring that all necessary permissions are obtained before any job starts. Their responsibility includes verifying site readiness, coordinating with supervisors, and confirming that all safety conditions are met before permit approval.

Meanwhile, the Fire Watch ensures continuous surveillance in areas where hot work is being performed. Their primary duty is to detect and respond immediately to any fire hazards or sparks. They must be alert, attentive, and equipped with fire suppression tools to prevent incidents during welding, cutting, or grinding activities.

For Safety Officers, certification and approval from SHARQ or PETROKEMYA demonstrate their competence and professional credibility. They must possess excellent communication and leadership skills to influence safe work behavior among teams.

A Work Permit Receiver must have strong coordination and documentation abilities, with in-depth knowledge of work permit systems, confined space entry procedures, and hazardous area operations.
