Had it not been for the last hour of work today my day would have been otherwise not far from the norm. But upon the roll of 3 o'clock my business manager called upon me to complete a risk prevention/safety audit, typically exclusive to management only. I toured the store to different departments and analyzed/tested for safety and risk prevention. I complete my task conclusively and although the club as a whole failed, I was told did an excellent job.
So be it as it may, I have inquired in the past about taking on more responsibility in our club. I already take on a role as a referrent leader to many of my on-the-job peers, but took it a step further.
I asked my business manager if I could take on the responsibility of conducting the risk control/safety audits on a weekly basis. Furthermore, I requested I have permission to have a different associate accompany me every week as to teach them the basics of loss prevention/risk control/safety measures around the club so as a fundamental basis for club-wide improvement may be initiated. I also have a responsibility to be aware of suspicious activity in the club (i.e. watch for theives, etc) but that is nothing new. He thought it an excellent idea and so without further adue...
You're looking at the currently, though un-official as of yet, risk control leader.
Thank you for reading.
