Im a little late but I am a Safety Advisor in the mining construction industry so I can answer any questions you may have. With the salary it is mining construction that pays those sort of rates not so much production but it depends on what state he is working in. Also keep in mind that the jobs in safety that pay the high rates usually have not so good rosters. Graduate programs are a good option if he can get one if not it is extremely hard to get a safety job with no mining or construction experience. Graduates are also not paid those rates but it would be worth it in the long run.
I was going to suggest what EM said. A graduate program. I currently work (for a contractor) in a construction mine. My background is health, but I would really like to get into OHS, so I too am going over to OHS. I'm still crossing my fingers for a bunch of my subjects to be accepted as RPLs.
