This position maintains permit integrity, supports hazard control processes, and promotes a strong safety culture across all project interfaces. Your role

Manage and maintain the PTW system for all track and system-related construction activities. Review and obtain approval on permit applications, ensuring completeness, accuracy, and compliance with project and regulatory safety requirements. Verify that high-risk activities (electrical, confined space, hot work, energized systems, lifting, track access, etc.) have valid permits before work starts. Coordinate permit scheduling with engineers, supervisors, and subcontractors. Maintain an updated log of all active, suspended, and closed permits. Ensure PTW processes comply with WorkSafeBC, Transport Canada, and project-specific safety standards. Confirm supporting documents (JHA/JSA, SWP, isolation plans, LOTO procedures) are attached to each permit. Validate that isolation and lockout procedures are implemented before issuing permits for energized work. Monitor work sites to ensure compliance with permit conditions and protected work practices. Suspend or revoke permits when unsafe conditions or deviations are observed. Coordinate PTW requirements for track installation, signaling, communications, and traction power systems. Ensure safe work interfaces between civil, track, electrical, and systems teams. Verify that personnel accessing track corridors hold required training and follow rail safety protocols.



Support testing, commissioning, and energization activities by managing relevant permits. Conduct field inspections to verify compliance with PTW rules. Audit subcontractor PTW performance and ensure corrective actions are implemented. Maintain accurate records of permits, isolations, inspections, and deviations. Prepare weekly PTW performance reports and dashboards for leadership. Review risk assessments and JHAs for all permitted activities. Ensure hazard controls (barriers, grounding, LOTO devices, spotters, etc.) are in place before work begins. Participate in incident and near-miss investigations related to PTW activities. Recommend improvements for recurring PTW-related risks. Communicate daily and weekly PTW status, conflicts, and constraints to project and construction teams. Participate in coordination meetings to align PTW requirements and SIMOPS (Simultaneous Operations) with work schedules. Support emergency response drills for track and system environments. Act as a liaison during incidents involving PTW-controlled work. Advise the Joint Occupational Health & Safety Committee on PTW compliance. Promote a strong safety culture and reinforce the importance of PTW integrity across all teams. About you
