The role ensures that construction activities are planned and executed safely, with particular focus on high-risk works, permit-to-work control, energized systems, lifting operations, excavation, hot work, working at height, clean construction, security control, emergency response, and zero-interrupt operations.
For the DSCO program, this role is critical because data center construction involves high-density technical environments where unsafe work can affect personnel safety, permanent power energization, commissioning readiness, critical infrastructure, security, and future operations. The SJ proposal states that each site should have a dedicated full-time HSE Manager embedded with the Construction Manager, MEP Lead, C&S Lead, site engineers, contractors, commissioning teams, and DSCO representatives.
Key Responsibilities
Implement the project HSSE Plan at the assigned site and ensure that all construction activities comply with DSCO requirements, SJ requirements, Indonesian regulations, contractual obligations, and recognized international HSSE practices.
Attend and lead HSE input for daily coordination meetings, pre-start briefings, toolbox talks, high-risk activity reviews, and workface readiness planning.
Review and monitor permit-to-work implementation for energized electrical work, lockout/tagout, hot work, confined space entry, excavation, lifting operations, work at height, roof works, pressure testing, chemical handling, commissioning tests, and restricted-zone activities.
Review contractors’ risk assessments, method statements, lifting plans, electrical safety plans, commissioning procedures, emergency response arrangements, and method-of-procedure submissions before work starts.
