Changes of environment and further challenges

the industry I work for its more challenging because we meet with different kind of people with different believe and understanding of work performed on daily basis. The relationship with co-workers it's quite good because our main purpose is to reach target made so we kinder like have a good working relationship which is what build us an ensures we reach the level of work set. I have learned that no matter how good you are with you do communication is best foundation above all especially when working with people or teams. I enjoy visiting construction site and compiling reports for the client. What I find challenging about the job is when I fail to complete the work due to none payments of stuff needed for work to be performed and when dealing with employees who are forever in denials when coming to safety and they tell you that they have 20years experience and what safety has to do with everything and why they weren't hurt then.

Pros: great opportunity to grow
Cons: normal working hours

Working in the company that allows employees to go on with their studies

The company gave me opportunity to prove myself. And that helped me to reach the excellency stage where i can go to a greater challenges. I have 3 to 4 years experience in safety. Safety is my paly ground where i dont compromise wellness of the employees and the company properties, i am happy to work in a company that treat employees well and deal with the problems in a professional way. Am ready to go and improve my excellency in a new environment and challenges. The most challenging aspects are when the company take ppe's for granted and when you make a request they delay to deliver hence they are expecting safety to be the most important thing. And if something happen they point finger at the safety officer though its the company's fault. I enjoy working with a team and am happy that 98% of the team cooperate and follow compliance

Pros: New opportunity and promotion or given responsibilities that will make me grow
Cons: 10hrs

Working for the company that will give me opportunity to prove myself

Safety comes first. Protection is better the cure, if we practice safety before any activity and train people before , we would work in a free and safety environment, daily i do risk assessment, conducting inductions and compilation of safety files, maintaning the whole standard of safety on site. I have learnt that safety should come first to protect employees, employers, equipments. Always i make sure i create a good relationship with co-workers to simplify things when i implement compliance, and when i put measures in place on daily tasks. The most challenging aspects of a job is some of the co-workers dont maintain their ppe and they will come to work without wearing full ppe so that you send them home, and that when you request for ppe's they take time to deliver(company).

Pros: To be given opportunity to prove myself on the job
Cons: 10hrs and overtime

Great learning curve

everyday was a busy excluding weekends, but once in a while you will be tasked with a once off weekend duty incase of emergencies, I had a wonderful relationship with co-workers especially the drivers that were reporting direct to me. being head of the operations department came with a lot of duties and I have learnt to multitask and keep focus working under pressure. it was always great to see the clients happy after proving a service and the most challenging part of the job was avoiding breakdowns that subsequently leads to profit loss.

Pros: wonderful opportunity to grow
Cons: low salary
