  • Develop, maintain, and track industrial hygiene and ergonomic equipment and calibration scheduling.
  • Provide technical consultation for internal staff to assess risk in current and prospective policyholder work sites.
  • This position requires driving a SAIF vehicle or personal vehicle on behalf of SAIF. The incumbent is required to possess and maintain a valid driver’s license in their state of residence along with an acceptable driving record according to SAIF’s policy.
  • Explore diverse perspectives and consistently behave sensitively toward differences in cultural norms, expectations, and ways of communicating. Work effectively with others who have different perspectives, backgrounds, and/or work styles.
