Who are safety engineers?
Safety engineers are professionals who specialise in ensuring workplace safety and health. They analyse work environments and processes, identify hazards and develop measures to minimise risks. Their tasks include creating and implementing safety standards, conducting safety training and monitoring compliance with legal regulations. They often work in industry, construction, production monitoring and many other areas where minimising injury and health risks is essential.
How much does a safety engineer earn?
The salary of a security engineer can vary greatly and depends on factors such as professional experience, education, industry, company size, location and the specific area of work within the field of security engineering.
In Germany, the average annual salary for safety engineers is often in the range of EUR 45,000 to EUR 70,000, although higher salaries are also possible here, especially in managerial positions or in industries such as the automotive, chemical or aviation industries.
Where do safety engineers work?
Safety engineers find work in a variety of industries and environments where workplace safety, public health protection or environmental safety play a role. Some of the typical areas of work include:
- Production and industrial companies: They ensure that machines and work processes are safe and that risks for employees are reduced.
- Construction: In the construction industry, safety engineers work on the development and monitoring of safety plans for construction projects.
- Chemical and pharmaceutical industry: Occupational safety engineers deal with safety aspects in the handling of chemical substances and processes.
- Oil, gas and mining industry: Safety engineers ensure that the extraction and processing of natural resources is safe for workers and the environment.
- Power plant operation and energy supply: They ensure compliance with safety regulations in energy plants and in electricity distribution.
- Healthcare: Sometimes they work in hospitals and other healthcare facilities to ensure patient and staff safety.
Who can call themselves a safety engineer?
In Germany, for example, the profession of safety engineer generally requires a degree in safety engineering, environmental engineering or a similar technical degree programme. In addition, practical experience and further training, such as training as an occupational safety specialist, may be required, which may also be required by law in order to work in certain industrial sectors.
In other countries, the job title "safety engineer" is not protected, but means that the person has completed advanced training in the field of engineering, specialising in occupational safety, health protection and/or environmental safety. This typically includes a degree from a university or college with a focus on safety engineering or a related technical field, often supplemented by additional certifications or state-recognised further training in safety management.
