The Opportunity
Youth Protection Manager
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University is seeking a Youth Protection Manager to lead and strengthen the University's approach to protecting minors who participate in camps, academic programs, athletic activities, outreach events, field trips, research experiences, and other University-sponsored programs.
This new University-wide position will serve as Embry-Riddle's central subject-matter resource for programs involving non-ERAU minors who participate in University-sponsored or University-affiliated activities. The Manager will provide leadership and oversight for the implementation of the University’s Minors on Campus Policy and work collaboratively with departments across the University to establish consistent safeguarding standards, practical operating procedures, effective training, and appropriate oversight.
This is both a standards, consultation, and operational support role. The Manager will not operate individual camps or programs; instead, the position will establish the framework, tools, training, and guidance that enable departments to safely and effectively conduct their programs. The position will also spend time in the field observing programs, conducting compliance reviews, supporting program leaders, and identifying opportunities for continuous improvement.
Responsibilities
- Administer University Minors on Campus policy and develop supporting procedures, standards, forms, and guidance.
- Provide subject-matter expertise on youth protection and safeguarding practices.
- Partner with academic departments, Summer Programs, Athletics, Admissions, Housing, Student Affairs, Research, Campus Safety & Security, Environmental Health and Safety, Human Resources, and other University areas.
- Review new and existing programs and provide guidance on supervision, training, background screening, documentation, emergency planning, and higher-risk activities.
- Conduct program compliance reviews and operational audits.
- Develop and deliver high level/standard training for program leaders, employees, student workers, volunteers, and others working with minors.
- Collaborate with other department personnel to review emerging risks involving digital communications, social media, photography, video, privacy, online contact, and other technology-related issues.
- Support appropriate mandatory reporting, internal escalation, and coordination with the offices responsible for Title IX, Clery Act, and other institutional reporting requirements.
- Lead continuous improvement efforts and provide compliance metrics and recommendations to University leadership.
- Provide recommendations and corrective-action guidance when programs do not meet University policy or applicable legal requirements.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Safety and Compliance Manager
Map your degree to DOL's specialty occupation definition
Safety and Compliance Manager roles must require a specific bachelor's degree field, not just any degree, to qualify as a specialty occupation. Document how your environmental science, engineering, or occupational health degree directly maps to the regulatory duties in your job description before you apply.
Look up prevailing wages before negotiating offers
Your employer's LCA must certify a wage at or above the DOL prevailing wage for your specific location and job title. Run your SOC code and worksite zip code through the OFLC Wage Search so you enter salary negotiations knowing the floor your sponsor is legally required to meet.
Target multi-site employers who already file LCAs
Companies with multiple facilities in regulated industries file LCAs regularly for compliance roles and understand that each worksite requires its own certified LCA. Use Migrate Mate to identify employers with verified H-1B visa LCA filing history for safety and compliance positions by city and industry sector.
Get your credentials evaluated before the I-129 is filed
If your safety or environmental degree came from outside the U.S., have it evaluated by a NACES-accredited service before your employer submits the I-129 petition to USCIS. A missing or delayed evaluation is one of the most common reasons safety and compliance petitions receive a Request for Evidence.
Ask employers about premium processing during offer stage
Safety and Compliance Manager roles often carry regulatory deadlines tied to audits, permits, or government contracts. During the offer stage, confirm whether your prospective employer is willing to request USCIS premium processing so your petition is adjudicated within the published business-day window.
Verify your O*NET job zone before accepting any offer
Pull the O*NET profile for your specific SOC code to confirm the occupation is classified as requiring a bachelor's degree. If the employer's job description drifts toward general supervisory duties with no degree requirement, the petition is vulnerable to a specialty occupation challenge from USCIS.
H-1B Visa Safety and Compliance Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Safety and Compliance Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, when the position requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific related field such as environmental science, occupational health, industrial hygiene, or engineering. The role qualifies because regulatory compliance at this level demands specialized theoretical knowledge. If the employer's job description allows any bachelor's degree without field specificity, USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence challenging the specialty occupation classification.
Which industries sponsor H-1B visas most often for Safety and Compliance Manager positions?
Manufacturing, chemical processing, construction, utilities, and healthcare systems are the most active sponsors because they face federal OSHA, EPA, and Joint Commission regulatory requirements that demand credentialed compliance professionals. Companies operating across multiple states also sponsor frequently because each worksite needs its own certified LCA, making experienced multi-site compliance managers a recurring hiring need. You can browse verified sponsoring employers on Migrate Mate.
What happens to my H-1B status if my employer closes a worksite or transfers me to a new location?
A new Labor Condition Application must be certified by DOL for each new worksite before you begin work there. Your employer cannot transfer you to an unlisted facility under the existing LCA. For short-term assignments at non-listed sites, a short-term placement provision may apply under DOL rules, but your employer's immigration counsel should confirm eligibility and duration limits before any worksite change.
Can I switch employers while my H-1B is active without losing status?
Yes. Under H-1B portability rules, you can begin working for a new employer as soon as they file a noncapitalized I-129 petition with USCIS, as long as your previous H-1B was approved, is not expired, and you've maintained lawful status. You don't need to wait for the new petition to be approved before starting. Confirm the filing date and receipt notice with your new employer before your last day at the previous job.
How long does H-1B status last for a Safety and Compliance Manager, and can it be extended?
H-1B status is initially granted for up to three years and can be extended to a maximum of six years. Extensions beyond six years are possible only if your employer has filed a PERM labor certification or an I-140 immigrant petition that has been pending for at least 365 days, or if your priority date is current. Your employer must file for each extension before your current status expires.
