As an ERU Crash Truck Operator, you will begin to know the highway like the back of your hand as you respond to calls dispatched from the MTO with urgency and other emergency situations such as spills, accidents, inclement weather, and assist in implementing an emergency plan as needed, complete incident reports, and liaise with the supervisor and MTO as needed. You will also respond to incidents and work with the OPP, Toronto Fire, and EMS, ensuring the safety of the travelling public, providing traffic control at the accident scene, setting up and taking down traffic signs.
When you are not responding to incidents, you will have the opportunity to operate a variety of equipment, including tractors, mowers, loaders, service trucks, and graders. You will also be making minor repairs to the highway, conducting daily circle checks, maintaining the equipment, and providing minor repairs, completing accurate documentation of incident reports, time sheets, fuel records, and hours of service.
You will be an essential member of the maintenance team and first point of contact in some situations. If you have a safety focused mindset and love to be on the road, this is the ideal role for you.
