Framerz Inc.

Site Safety Officer (NCSO)

Location: Calgary, AB

Framerz Inc. is a leading wood framing and prefabrication contractor operating across Calgary and Alberta. We specialize in large-scale residential, mid-rise, and commercial wood-frame projects.

Our approach to safety is practical, field-driven, and focused on real risk reduction. We prioritize systems and behaviors that actually work on active framing sites, not paperwork for its own sake.

Core Values (How We Operate)

• Professionalism: Clear communication, preparation, and follow-through. No excuses, no finger-pointing.
• Quality: Build it right the first time. No shortcuts. No passing problems downstream.
• Continuous Improvement: Measure performance, fix root causes, and get better every week.
• Team: Build capable people, support each other, and own outcomes together.

We also hire leaders who are Hungry, Humble, and Smart.

This position is hands-on and site-focused. The successful candidate will spend the majority of their time on active framing sites, identifying high-risk activities, supporting foremen, reinforcing expectations, and ensuring safety systems are executed properly in the field.

• Ensure safety documentation is completed accurately and consistently without overburdening site teams
• Assist with incident and near-miss investigations and follow-up corrective actions
• Track and escalate recurring safety issues or trends to Operations and management
• Support orientation, SWPs, JHAs, and site-specific safety planning
• Reinforce accountability at the site level while maintaining a collaborative, respectful approach
• Work alongside existing safety personnel and Operations to strengthen overall site compliance
• Use technology and digital tools to improve reporting, tracking, and communication

• NCSO designation (or actively working toward certification)
• 3 to 5 or more years of construction safety experience in Calgary or Alberta
• Trade background in carpentry, framing, or site supervision
• Experience working on multi-site operations
• Exposure to prefab or panelized construction environments

• Willingness to adopt technology and streamlined processes to reduce administrative burden
• Comfortable working directly with foremen and site crews
• Practical, solutions-oriented approach to safety
• Strong communication and organizational skills
• Valid driver's license and ability to travel between sites
