Position Summary:
The Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Manager is responsible for supporting the development, implementation, and maintenance of a comprehensive risk management program that strives to exceed regulatory compliance requirements across multiple locations, including H2 and Service. This role will ensure that Plug Power complies with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations, including but not limited to: occupational safety and health, waste management, environmental regulatory compliance, workers' compensation, chemical control, industrial hygiene, fire safety, and transportation. The individual in this role will also contribute to efforts to build a strong safety culture and implement proactive measures to improve Plug's EHS program continually. The ideal candidate will be a self-motivated individual who can work independently and is comfortable with multitasking in a fast-paced manufacturing environment. This position requires a high level of interaction with all functions throughout the organization. To support your assigned locations, you will be required to travel 25%-50% of the time.

Regulatory Compliance: Ensure Plug maintains compliance with relevant EHS regulations (e.g., OSHA, EPA, DOT) at the locations for which this role is responsible.
Safety Culture: Demonstrate, model, and follow the Plug Power Behavior Change Coaching culture process and requirements with all leaders and employees.
Risk Assessments: Conduct comprehensive site risk assessments, identifying and evaluating potential hazards, including those specific to hydrogen (e.g., flammability, high pressure), and implement effective mitigation strategies. In addition, perform full hazard and PPE assessments.
Incident Investigation: Lead investigations into accidents and near-misses, identify root causes, and recommend preventive actions.
Training: Develop and deliver EHS training programs for all employees.
Auditing: Lead the EHS Annual Facility/Location auditing group by conducting regular EHS audits and inspections to ensure compliance.
Reporting: Manage EHS reporting, including incident reporting, regulatory compliance reporting, and environmental impact assessments.
Emergency Preparedness: Develop and implement emergency response plans, including procedures for hydrogen spills, fires, and evacuations.
Environmental Management: Manage waste disposal programs, emissions reporting, and spill prevention plans, while ensuring all required permits are active and up to date.
Sustainability: Promote sustainability initiatives and ensure compliance with waste management protocols.
Specific EHS Considerations for Hydrogen Fuel Plants:
Hydrogen's Flammability and Explosivity: Must have a thorough understanding of hydrogen's unique flammability and explosivity characteristics and develop appropriate safety measures.
High-Pressure Systems: Hydrogen fuel plants often involve high-pressure systems, requiring specialized safety protocols and training.
Cryogenic Fluids: Some hydrogen fuel plants may utilize cryogenic fluids, requiring specialized knowledge and safety procedures.
Process Safety Management (PSM): PSM principles are crucial for mitigating process hazards and preventing major accidents in hydrogen fuel plants.
Emergency Response: Developing effective emergency response plans for hydrogen spills, fires, and other incidents is critical.
Exempt employees are expected to work as many hours as is necessary to complete their job responsibilities. This may require them to work more than eight hours a day and more than five days or 40 hours per week.
