Today, we celebrate the fathers, father figures, and mentors who continue to lead with strength, wisdom, sacrifice, and purpose.
Fathers are often the quiet builders behind strong families, confident children, and future leaders. Through their guidance, discipline, encouragement, and presence, they help shape the character and direction of the next generation.
Whether at home, at work, or in the community, the impact of a committed father reaches far beyond what is seen.
To all the dads balancing responsibility, leadership, and love every day — thank you for the example you set and the legacy you continue to build.
Happy Father’s Day to the men shaping tomorrow through integrity, hard work, and care.

The role of the GMR 2.1 appointee is to help ensure that the employer complies with the:
• Occupational Health and Safety Act
• Applicable regulations
• Health and safety standards
This is also the type of SHEQ and engineering governance experience you are expected to demonstrate in your GCC Factories letter of experience.
Here is a detailed breakdown of the GCC Factories experience requirements:

Ten Health and Safety Experience Expected from GCC Factories Candidates and GMR 2.1 Appointees
A comprehensive guide on the health and safety experience that needs to be demonstrated by GCC Factories candidate applicants and those aspiring to be appointed as GMR 2.1 or GMR 2.7(a)

One of the key purposes of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) is to ensure the health and safety of persons in connection with the use of plant and machinery.
The responsibility for achieving this rests with the employer.
In fact, section 8(2)(i) of the OHSA specifically requires employers to ensure that machinery is operated under the general supervision of a person trained on the hazards and authority to implement precautionary measures. These responsibilities and requirements are extended to the GMR 2, who takes on overall accountability for the general supervision of machinery.
A competent GMR 2 appointee is not only responsible for machinery governance and legal compliance, but also for driving safe engineering practices, operational discipline, risk management, and statutory compliance throughout the organisation.
However, one of the biggest challenges faced by newly appointed GMR 2 appointees is understanding how to practically execute these responsibilities.
That is why we developed the “Understanding and Fulfilling the Role of the GMR 2” short course.
This practical course is designed to help participants understand:
- Legal compliance responsibilities and systems
- Roles and accountability structures
- How to implement precautionary measures
Join us on 6 July 2026 as we unpack the roles and responsibilities of the GMR 2 appointee.
