DescriptionWorthington Steel is hiring a Summer Intern for our EH&S and Sustainability team! Worthington Steel's Summer Internship Program is a 12-week program that starts at the end of May and runs through early August.
We are looking to hire a student who will work 40 hours per week onsite at our Columbus, Ohio headquarters during our Summer Internship Program. Worthington Steel is not responsible for providing supplemental housing for students.
During the program, the EHS Intern will help meet the demands of both safety and environmental compliance for the Company. Interns will spend a signification portion of their time completing a business-focused project. These assignments could be related to environmental data collection, consolidation, and report preparation. This position is designed to be both educational and practical. In this position, the intern will learn how to take skills acquired in school and apply them in a manufacturing environment under the direct supervision of the EH & S Manager. At the end of the program, each intern will present their project to an audience that may include their managers, their peers, and executive leaders.
The interns will spend the remainder of their time receiving additional on-the-job experience, building their networks, and learning together in classes. Classes will feature topics such as business etiquette, resume writing, interviewing skills, and presenting with confidence.
In keeping with Our Philosophy, the program will also feature a community service component. Last year our interns spent a day at Goodwill Columbus.
