• Support workplace health and safety programs and actively participate in safety initiatives.
• Manage HR documentation, budgets, and charitable contributions with fiscal responsibility and alignment to company values.
• Represent the company in community relations, employee activities, and engagement initiatives.
• Ensure compliance with employment laws, corporate governance standards, and the ASSA ABLOY Code of Conduct.
