      Hi chabbie!

      I do a lot of report writing to summarise the work that I do.

      In terms of admin type stuff, I have a little bit to do. This involves things like organising meetings and claiming expenses – but overall, not too much admin!

      Hi Chabbie,

      I do a fair bit of paperwork, but like Neil I am writing up reports to summarise my findings and also to present information to people who then make important safety decisions based on the information I provide them. I also have to do staff appraisals (career progression and advice) for the staff which I manage as well as other admin, but I do a fair bit of paperwork I suppose you could say (or more accurately e-work).

      Hi,

      Quite a bit to be honest as that’s how I communicate with others. So paper work includes writing reports or carrying out risk assessments, all of which are essential parts of my job.

      However I don’t have to do much “admin” work. Thankfully we have a project administrator who helps us keep track of invoices and everything like that, and they’re really super organised so much better at it than me!
