After a promotion from Western Divisional Safety Manager in 2020, my footprint expanded from Alberta & BC to all provinces west of Quebec. As a result, I’ve studied the nuances between provincial OH&S law, as well as municipal bylaws, and federal regulations. I have been responsible for the health & Safety of up to roughly $600M in ongoing construction projects at a time. I’ve developed a completely new Occupational Health & Safety Management System, which has been tested against BC and AB COR auditing systems and validated with a 93% score in Alberta. I effectively coordinated change management from the old system to the new, by training staff and using familiar, intuitive systems. I received security clearance from various provincial and federal entities for construction and bidding purposes. I’ve also investigated all manors of incidents, injuries, near misses, and losses. Over these almost 5 years, I’ve developed strong working relationships with hundreds of contractors across Western Canada & Ontario, as well as with Occupational Health & Safety staff, workers’ compensation boards, and our clients. My contractor management program has effectively managed the HSE performance expectations of our contractors from the tender process, through to end-of-project post-mortem performance reports. My HSE program has reduced our WCB premiums by over 50%, and maximized WCB rebates via the PIR program. As a result of our continuous improvement, our most recent yearly WCB claims costs are reporting 48.98% lower than the industry average, and have been trending downwards for 4 years.I have directly managed a team of HSE Advisors and Safety Reps across Canada. I attend monthly leadership meetings with my managers. I helped write an effective COVID-19 Pandemic Response Plan, and have developed strong relationships with the Human Resources team. Together we have written and analyzed employee engagement surveys, adapted company policy, and trended safety and performance data.

Calgary, Canada Area

Calgary, Canada

During my time with Mattamy, we built thousands of homes in the Calgary, and Edmonton areas. I was hired as part of a corrective actions plan submitted to Alberta OH&S. Mattamy was earning a reputation for lax safety enforcement, resulting in a high volume of injury incidents in Calgary. Mattamy’s trade partners were habitually violating OH&S Code, and Supervisors were not being held accountable. I was hired to spearhead the safety program, balance the workplace, reduce the volume of incidents, and satisfy all of the OH&S requirements as laid out in the corrective action plan. During my time there, I maintained a record of zero lost-time injuries, resulting in substantially reduced WCB premiums and doubled PIR rebates when I left. I helped develop and implement a new HSE management system. That system earned Mattamy Homes COR status, scoring a 93% in the first external COR audit. I engaged in the peer auditing system with the ACSA and audited others in the construction industry through that system. I wrote and implemented an employee and trade partner incentive program. This program piggybacked off a separate behavioral-based leading indicator program I developed that identified and mitigated over 6500 unsafe conditions, acts, and positive observations a year. These actions were incremental in satisfying OH&S and effectively made the workplaces safer. I maintained a safety budget and kept records of all safety-related documentation from dozens of worksites across Alberta for both COR, performance, and overall HSE improvement purposes. In tandem with Management, we transitioned the safety program from a paper-based program to a digital online system (E-Compliance). I formed and chaired many Joint Health & Safety Committees, and maintained relationships with contractors, OH&S, and clients. I lead all incident investigations and implemented effective controls.
