Maleshoane Setai

I have over 5 years of experience working at a small family owned business and started my career in Occupational health and safety in 2021, 2years after I had completed my SAMTRAC. I have worked contractual jobs in the past years but thought that the only way I could get permanent jobs is if I furthered my studies. I enrolled through the University of South Africa year in 2022 to complete a Diploma in Safety Management, currently doing my 3rd year.

My goal is to become the Chief Safety Officer in a growing and evolutional company.
