Safety Consultant positions now open!

In the world of workers' compensation the best claim is the claim that never happens. That's good for everyone involved - a worker isn't injured, and the employer isn't without one of their staff due to an accident. Guess what? Accident prevention is no accident and it takes the concerted efforts of employers, their workers, and their insurance company all working in unison to ensure a safe workplace. At Pinnacol we have the state's largest group of safety professionals all working towards one objective - reducing the frequency and severity of accidents occuring at the companies we insure.

We hire both experienced as well as entry level candidates into the ranks of our Safety Consultants and we currently are looking to bring on board two individuals in this capacity. Entry level candidates tend to come through school programs dealing with environmental health and safety and we have our current openings posted with several schools both inside and outside of Colorado. I also have the openings announced through the Colorado Chapters of the ASSE (American Society of Safety Engineers).


Safety Consultants at Pinnacol perform a variety of specialized tasks including implementing one or more of the following services to our policyholders: safety program development and on site safety inspections, Cost Containment Certification assistance, accident and injury trend analysis, onsite Train the Trainer programs, OSHA compliance assistance, construction safety, ergonomic resources, as well as researching and updating other staff on changing regulations & emerging safety issues. 


To be effective in this role our Safety Consultants spend the majority of their time at policyholder locations so  considerable travel throughout the state within an assigned territory is necessary. Successful candidates must also be a self-starter, well organized and have good computer, communication, and presentation skills.

I've always thought these to be very interesting positions  as they offer the opportunity to learn the nuts and bolts of many of the businesses and industries our policyholders are involved in as well as the ability to make a positive impact by helping reduce the accidents they and their workers experience. If you are interested in this opportunity to make a real difference, please complete our application via our company website.
