Safety Inspector or Officer


Explanation:
Mais certeza que seja "Safety" por causa da palavra "prevenção". Pode ser tanto inspector como officer. Officer serve para qualquer um encarregado ou responsável por algo. Eu omitiria "prevenção" e usaria somente "Safety Officer".

Nota: o texto não diz, mas "fiscal de prevenção" deve ser "prevenção de acidente", por isso com certeza deve ser "safety" e não "security"

O fato de envolver um roubo não significa que a função da pessoa era de segurança patrimonial. O texto não diz isso. Não existe "fiscal de prevenção de segurança patrimonial"!

  -> discordo. o texto não diz, mas "fiscal de prevenção" deve ser "prevenção de acidente", por isso é com certeza "safety" e não "security". não existe "security prevention", não faz sentido. Cheers!
