This might be undertaking safety-critical work, for which you’ll receive training, but it could just be helping out with Customer Service when our stations are busy. We’re One Team, and that means our managers step up for the frontline, not just manage from a distance. Supporting frontline colleagues is part of our DNA at EMR.
