Dedicated environmental health and safety professional

South Africa

What I'm looking for

Seeking a role in a company that prioritizes health and safety culture, with opportunities for growth and development in environmental health services.

I am a driven and passionate environmental health and safety professional with a strong background in ensuring compliance to health and safety regulations. With experience in conducting internal audits, incident investigations, and risk assessments, I am committed to promoting a culture of health and safety in the workplace.

My most recent role as a safety, health, and environmental intern at Afrimat Aggregates and Ready-mix has given me the opportunity to develop my skills in training and awareness programs, contractor management, and waste management. I am proud to have contributed to a 90.6% ASPHASA audit score, a significant improvement from 85.9% in 2023.

As a registered environmental health practitioner with the Health Professionals Council of South Africa, I am confident in my ability to conduct environmental health duties, including environmental swabs, water sampling, and food sampling. I am also skilled in computer literacy, leadership, and communication, with the ability to present to diverse groups of people.
