Description
A Safety Officer, Fire Watch, or WPR plays a vital role in ensuring workplace safety and operational efficiency, especially in industrial and construction projects across Saudi Arabia. These positions are crucial in maintaining compliance with safety standards, preventing accidents, and protecting both personnel and equipment. Safety Officers monitor daily operations, identify potential hazards, and implement corrective measures to minimize risk. Fire Watch personnel are responsible for detecting fire hazards and responding quickly to emergencies, while WPRs (Work Permit Receivers) ensure that all work is conducted under strict safety and procedural protocols. In highly regulated environments, such as projects requiring Samac or Ibn Zahr approvals, these roles are indispensable for the smooth and secure execution of tasks.
Key Responsibilities
The primary responsibilities of these positions focus on proactive risk management and compliance. Safety Officers oversee site safety inspections, ensure that all staff adhere to safety regulations, and coordinate emergency response drills. Fire Watch personnel monitor hot work activities, such as welding or cutting, to prevent fire incidents and maintain fire safety equipment. WPRs manage work permits, verify authorization, and ensure that all procedures are followed according to company and regulatory standards. Each role demands vigilance, attention to detail, and the ability to respond effectively to emergencies. By performing these duties, personnel not only protect lives but also safeguard the reputation and efficiency of the organization.
Skills and Knowledge
Applicants must possess specific skills and qualifications to succeed in these roles. A Safety Officer should have a strong understanding of occupational health and safety protocols, risk assessment, and incident reporting. Fire Watch personnel must be trained in fire prevention techniques, emergency response, and basic first aid. WPRs require familiarity with work permit systems, regulatory compliance, and documentation processes. All candidates should hold Samac or Ibn Zahr certifications and registration with the Ajeer Chamber Company is mandatory. Practical experience in industrial or construction environments, good communication skills, and the ability to work under pressure are also essential for success in these positions.

Important Notes for Applicants
Applicants are advised to act quickly whenever a job is posted. Contact the supplier directly, verify all documents via WhatsApp, and if possible, visit the office in person before proceeding. Registration with the Ajeer Chamber Company is essential; without it, the company is not responsible for any payment issues.
