No day is the same as an HSE professional, and the bakery and depots are fast-paced. You will need to prioritise your workload which will typically including supporting the business with risk assessments, ensuring investigations establish root cause and that effective corrective actions are put in place, supporting the training team, completing inspections and audits, monitoring performance data and generating reports.
