POSITION SUMMARY

Orion is seeking a motivated Safety Intern to join our Health, Safety & Environmental (HS&E) team.

  • Support the preparation and maintenance of weekly, monthly, and quarterly safety reports.
  • Assist with collecting, organizing, and analyzing safety data to identify trends and opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Support the development and maintenance of project-specific safety plans, emergency action plans, and other safety documentation.
  • Assist with safety orientations, toolbox talks, training programs, and employee safety communications.
  • Help coordinate safety training schedules, registrations, certifications, and training records.

  • Immediately report unsafe conditions, incidents, injuries, or potential hazards.
  • Understand and support Orion's Stop Work Authority whenever an unsafe condition or situation is observed.
  • Maintain confidentiality regarding Company information, records, and business practices.
