The CSO's fundamental role is to uphold TYBO’s stringent safety standards by meticulously monitoring the site-specific safety plan and ensuring full compliance with WorkSafeBC regulations. Beyond compliance, the CSO will proactively address any safety concerns that arise, build strong relationships in the field, and adeptly implement solutions that align with our steadfast commitment to safety.
