  • OSHA (PPE, ergonomics, incident reporting)
  • FDA/USDA, HACCP, GMP (food safety)
  • EPA (waste management; spill response)
  • Airport/TSA security (SIDA badges, secured area procedures, seal integrity)
• Document and improve transportation processes and SOPs; close gaps found in audits or incident reviews.
• Monitor and ensure safety compliance at all times; lead root‑cause analysis and corrective actions for accidents/incidents.
• Perform other duties as assigned to support flight service, customer needs, and operational continuity.

• Guide, motivate, and develop drivers, dispatchers, and transportation coordinators within HR policies; deliver coaching and progressive discipline as needed.
• Make the company’s values and management principles live in the department through consistent communication, recognition, and accountability.
• Manage productivity hours and costs; initiate corrective actions for deviations (e.g., overtime, idle time, out‑of‑route).
• Participate in and support company initiatives such as Quality, HACCP, Lean/5S, Employee Safety, and Production Systems; sponsor Kaizen activities that remove waste and improve reliability
