1) Compliance & Governance
- Ensure adherence to Egyptian laws and regulations (e.g., environmental permits, hazardous substances, civil defense/fire codes, labor law) and local authority/site licensing requirements.
- Maintain and improve ISO 45001 (OHSMS) and ISO 14001 (EMS) management systems; lead internal audits, corrective actions, and surveillance/recertification preparations.
- Develop, review, and roll out HSE policies, procedures, SOPs, and permit‑to‑work systems across all retail sites.
2) Risk Management & Process Safety (Retail Focus)
- Conduct and update risk assessments (HIRA/JSA), bow‑ties, and job safety analyses for fueling, tanker offloading, tank gauging, confined space entry, hot works, and working at height.
- Lead process safety controls for storage tanks, piping, dispensers, vapor recovery, pressure relief, and electrical bonding/earthing; verify integrity through inspections and testing.
- Implement and monitor contractor HSE requirements (pre‑qualification, onboarding, method statements, tool‑box talks, supervision).
3) Site Assurance & Inspections
- Plan and perform station audits/inspections (housekeeping, ATEX/EX equipment, emergency equipment, signage, spill kits, firefighting systems, separators).
- Track actions to closure; report trends and recommend engineering and behavioral controls.
- Verify tanker fleet compliance (ADR-equivalent practices, driver competence, defensive driving, spill prevention).
4) Incident Prevention, Reporting & Learning
- Lead incident/near‑miss investigations using root cause techniques (5‑Why, ICAM, TapRooT® style), issue reports, and drive corrective/preventive actions.
- Champion HSE reporting pyramid/iceberg concepts to boost near‑miss, hazard observation, and unsafe condition reporting and learning (REX).
- Manage statutory emergency response arrangements, drills, and coordination with local authorities and Civil Defense.
5) Training, Culture & Engagement
- Deliver and track HSE training (induction, PTW, LOTO, confined space, working at height, spill response, fire warden, manual handling).
- Coach site managers/dealers and supervisors on behavior-based safety, leadership walkdowns, and toolbox talks.
- Lead campaigns (heat stress, driving safety, slips/trips/falls) and Safety Days.
6) Environment & Sustainability
- Oversee spill prevention and response, waste management, water/oil separator maintenance, and air emissions (vapor recovery).
- Monitor utilities, fuel losses, and product variance; support leak detection, tank tightness testing, and remediation.
- Track environmental KPIs and statutory reporting; support sustainability initiatives (energy efficiency, solar, EV/CNG expansion).
7) Data, Reporting & Continuous Improvement
- Maintain HSE dashboards (LTIFR, TRIR, near‑miss rate, audit closure rate, training completion).
- Present monthly HSE reports to management; recommend risk‑based investments and CAPEX for safety improvements.
- Digitize HSE workflows (inspection checklists, incident reporting, action tracking) where possible.
