Almost every major company has a labor safety specialist. In small companies, the performance of these duties is usually assigned to a personnel officer or lawyer. However, it should be noted that it is undesirable to assign such a responsibility to a person who is not trained and has no idea what labor protection is. And if a person has experience in this position, he perfectly understands this. How to create a resume if you want to work as an occupational safety engineer?
Structure
The work of a specialist or engineer on labor protection is primarily associated with the observance of safe working conditions for workers' life and health. This includes carrying out many activities: from legal and socio-economic to sanitary-hygienic and rehabilitation. And all this is done by one person (or department, if the organization is large).
Therefore, a person who claims to perform such work should have knowledge and (preferably) experience in a number of industries. The structure of the standard resume of the applicant for the position of safety specialist is the same as for any other job: personal data, education, work experience, professional and personal qualities, desired salary.
In each of the sections as detailed as possible, but without excess water, it is necessary to indicate exactly the experience and those qualities that are required to fulfill the duties of a labor protection specialist.
Compilation Recommendations
In the section "Personal data" Be sure to add a mobile phone number, email address. The Education section is populated from earlier to later. First, information about secondary special or higher education is indicated, then - about retraining or advanced training.
A big plus for the applicant will be the presence of such a higher education as “State and Municipal Administration”, “Teacher-Psychologist” or a specialized one - “Labor Protection”. If you are applying for a position as a safety engineer, then much more likely to find a job with a specialist with an engineering degree. If there is no specialized education, it is very desirable to complete specialized courses (and not some dubious, but well-established ones). It is also good if you attended legal literacy courses and are familiar with the laws and regulations that regulate labor protection.
In the “Experience” section, filling takes place in a different time sequence - from later to earlier. Indicate not only the name of the organization in which you worked, but also the time period, and the position you held, and the duties that you performed. Successful experience in various kinds of inspections is of great importance for employers, so if you have one, you should definitely mention this.
If the applicant has been involved in a work accident, this can also be a big plus, especially in cases where a vacancy is opened in factories, factories, in a word, in places where this can happen with a high probability, and you need a person who can calmly and confidently begin to resolve the situation.
The knowledge of labor standards is simply necessary for a specialist in his protection, otherwise how can he calculate whether there is too much overtime work for workers?
If you have passed trainings or training on team management, the basics of pedagogy, be sure to indicate this. After all for an occupational safety engineer, having minimal pedagogical knowledge is crucial - the contingent with which you have to work can be very different and you need to find an approach to everyone.
Section "Professional and personal qualities" It is created not to list everything that comes to mind, but to systematize and highlight precisely those qualities of the applicant, thanks to which he will successfully cope with the functions of a labor protection specialist. No need to write phrases and words that every second candidate writes: “stress tolerance, sociability, diligence, literacy”, etc.
Write about how you can negotiate with people, have pedagogical skills, be calm, behave confidently in non-standard situations, keep cool - be a little more inventive than the rest. Your resume should stand out from a large number of similar ones.
Never write a lie. Know how to work in 1C: Personnel, kept a timesheet there - indicate required. If you don’t know how to work in Excel, don’t be fooled that you are able to, because if you need to quickly demonstrate the ability to sort or apply a filter in this program, you won’t be able to do this “on the fly”. Write that you have basic skills and immediately start learning Excel for Beginners.
Never ascribe to yourself other people's merits. Participated in the commission for the investigation of industrial accidents - write, but if you did not head it, do not specify too much.
It is not worth writing in the summary of what does not apply to the position for which you are applying. Your broad outlook and game in the local league “What?” Where? When?" do not matter to a labor safety specialist.
