• Participate actively in daily toolbox meetings and safety briefings and ensure all workers under supervision attend and understand the day’s safety requirements.
• Identify unsafe conditions related to finishing work activities — such as improper scaffolding for ceiling works, chemical handling for paints and adhesives, and electrical hazards near wet areas — and report these to the safety officer or project manager immediately.
• Ensure workers engaged in architectural and finishing works are equipped with appropriate PPE including dust masks, gloves, safety goggles, and safety shoes.
• Monitor and enforce proper housekeeping standards on site, ensuring work areas are kept clean, organized, and free of debris and hazardous materials.
