Occupational health and safety (OHS) advisors play a critical role in identifying, assessing, and mitigating workplace hazards in energy operations. They develop safety protocols, lead training sessions, and conduct inspections to reduce the risk of incidents and ensure regulatory compliance. Whether it’s a wind farm, oil rig, refinery, or hydroelectric plant, OHS advisors help create and maintain a culture of safety.

This role requires strong knowledge of occupational safety standards, hazard identification techniques, emergency response planning, and risk management. Advisors work closely with engineers, supervisors, and regulatory bodies to ensure safe energy production. A career in OHS within the energy sector offers the opportunity to influence safety culture and directly impact worker well-being.
