Description
The roles of WPR (Work Permit Receiver) and Firewatch are highly important positions in industrial shutdown and maintenance projects, especially in high-risk environments such as oil, gas, and petrochemical facilities. These jobs ensure that all work activities are carried out under strict safety compliance and permit control systems. WPR personnel are responsible for managing work permits and coordinating between different teams, while Firewatch staff ensure fire hazards are monitored and controlled during hot work activities. Both roles are essential for maintaining safe operations and preventing workplace incidents during shutdown projects.
Key Responsibilities
The WPR is responsible for handling and verifying work permits before any job begins on site. This includes coordinating with supervisors, ensuring all safety requirements are met, and confirming that work is carried out according to approved procedures. They also play a key role in communication between the safety department and field workers. On the other hand, Firewatch personnel are responsible for monitoring areas where hot work such as welding or cutting is performed. They must remain alert to any signs of fire risk, ensure proper fire extinguishing equipment is available, and respond immediately in case of emergency. Both roles require strict attention to detail and continuous site monitoring.
Skills and Knowledge
Candidates must have relevant experience in shutdown projects and must be SAFCO approved. A valid authorization card is mandatory for application. WPR candidates should have strong knowledge of permit-to-work systems, safety regulations, and coordination skills. Firewatch candidates must understand fire safety procedures, hazard identification, and emergency response techniques. A minimum of basic education is required, along with updated documents such as CV, Iqama, passport copy, Muqeem (minimum 3 months validity), body fitness certificate, insurance, and chamber SAFCO approval. Strong discipline, alertness, and teamwork skills are essential for both positions.
