Workplace Safety Responder — Part-Time

Part-Time · $25.00 / hour · $200.00 daily minimum ·
Availability for frequent travel throughout the CONUS required

OSHA-required compliance testing is what the law asks for. What workers actually need is someone competent, calm, and prepared standing in front of them — running the test, explaining the result, and treating the moment with the seriousness it deserves.

That person is a Safety Responder. At MHD, it could be you.

We are looking for part-time Safety Responders located in the Central US region to join a nationally distributed field team that delivers on-site occupational health and safety services for some of the most safety‑critical employers in the country. The work is precise, hands‑on, and rooted in protocol.
The schedule is part‑time with regular driving/ travel to support customer sites
. The standard is non‑negotiable.

If you have worn a first responder or military uniform, run a call, or led a crew — and you miss being the person people trust when conditions get serious — this is built for you.

MHD is a nationwide on‑site occupational health, safety, and industrial hygiene services company headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado. Since 2019, we have grown to 51 employees serving more than 2,000 organizations nationwide, including Northrop Grumman, Nebraska Medicine, NPR, and Owens Corning.

Our mission is Work Without Worry — helping employers stay OSHA compliant and keep their employees safe. Our brand promise is Safety Made Simple. Compliance Made Certain.

We deliver four signature compliance services in the field:
Respirator Fit Testing, Audiometric Hearing Testing, Pulmonary Function Testing, and Noise Level Surveys
. Our 10‑year goal is to become the #1 private employer of veterans and retired first responders in the United States.

In your first 90 days
, you will become certified in MHD's testing methodologies and complete supervised Work Orders alongside your Territory Manager.
By six months
, you will be the primary MHD presence at client sites across your region — running a full slate of OSHA‑compliance testing, coaching client employees through the process,
and delivering clean documentation within 24 hours of every visit.

By the end of year one
, the clients on your route will know your name. They will ask for you by name. They will trust you to walk onto their floor, set up your equipment, and tell them the truth about what the data shows — because the person delivering the test is the person carrying the standard.

Specifically, the work involves
:

• Conducting OSHA-required Respirator Fit Tests, Audiometric Hearing Tests, Pulmonary Function Tests, and Noise Level Surveys at client facilities.
• Delivering short, clear in‑person safety training to client employees.
• Setting up, operating, and calibrating MHD's portable testing equipment on‑site.
• Submitting complete, accurate electronic reports through MHD's field service platform within 24 hours of each visit.
• Representing MHD's brand at every client site — appearance, communication, and conduct that matches the trust our clients have placed in us.

Your day starts the night before
. You confirm tomorrow's Work Order with your Territory Manager — site address, contact name, services scheduled, equipment list, certifications required.
You load the vehicle
, check the calibration on each instrument, and review the site's prior visit notes.

You leave early
. Traffic, weather, and gate security are not the client's problems — they're yours.
You arrive on time
, walk in clean, and find your point of contact within the first five minutes.

You set up in the space the client gave you
. You greet each employee who comes through, explain what the test does and why, run the protocol exactly as it was written, and answer questions in plain English. When a result is borderline, you do not round it. You run it…
