Construction Site Supervisor (CSS) should have a positive attitude and be able to motivate his team. He must have an overall understanding of health & safety, be able to read site drawings and documents and have strong organizational skills.CSS need to provide a supporting role to workers below him. A good Supervisor will be able to guide other workers on how to be more competent in their role. Try and be as easy to contact as possible and always know who is on-site and where they are working; this will help you to tell the right people about certain hazards on site.
A big part of CSS role will be determining the probability of an accident happening on site. To do this he/she will be required to carry out consistent risk assessments; these risk assessments will allow to spot any hazards and fix them before they causer an accident. If the hazard isn’t fixable it will be a job to report it so that it can be dealt with as quickly as possible.
CSS need to make sure that all his workers are informed of the health and safety hazards on site and the precautions they need to take. CSS cannot supervise every worker 24/7; so, you need to inform everyone who will be working onsite before work begins. The Site Supervisor communicates with the Contractor and the crew regularly regarding site rules.
