About Kevin Hoffer:

Bringing a wealth of experience and a strong commitment to workplace safety. With close to two decades of leadership in health and safety across North America in diverse industries, including Oil and Gas, Industrial and Marine Construction, Manufacturing, and Logistics. Consistently demonstrating a passion for building positive safety cultures and reducing workplace incidents.

 

I have a strong professional background with the building, development and implementation of comprehensive Health and Safety Management Systems and manuals, with a proven success in reducing TRIF rates and first aid and vehicle incidents while increasing safety engagement. 

I hold a strong proven track record in safety training, inspections, and incident investigations, auditing and WCB case management with numerous certifications including COHS, NCSO, CSS, and BC & AB COR Auditor.

My most recent role was as a Western Canada Regional HSE Manager, where I led safety initiatives across 18 branches, and 108 Transport vehicles / Worksites where my proven track record and initiatives significantly improved safety performance & metrics.
