Health and Safety Adviser
Dec 2025Perth WA 6000Less than 1 year in the role, former employee
Average pay, fuel card being a good benefit. Toxic work culture.
The good thingsFuel Card and reasonable working arrangements.
The challengesThere is a senior safety advisor who has been with the company for over a decade. She’s fantastic at what she does however the HSE Manager strives to train the rest of the staff to work exactly how the senior member does. HSE advisors often bring a unique style of safety to each company but that doesn’t seem to register. I was told several times not to work the way I do and to mimic the senior advisors way. A lot of double handling and roundabout ways of doing things that take longer than they should. The company is too top heavy with leadership roles.

Human ResourcesYou're right - forcing everyone to work exactly like one person, even an excellent person, stifles professional expertise. That's poor management of a safety function. We should be leveraging different approaches, not creating clones. Your feedback about the top heavy structure is noted by senior leadership. Thank you for the honest assessment, and we're sorry we lost you after less than a year.

Human ResourcesThank you for the 5 stars during what must be an incredibly stressful time. Maintaining positive culture while your facility faces administration is a testament to you and your team's leadership. Your point about overcomplicated corporate processes is fair - we know we can be bureaucratic. What specific processes create the most friction for your operations? We'd genuinely like to know. Thanks for staying positive when many wouldn't.
