Primarily that job is to make sure that the policies, procedures, safe systems of work etc. are in place and adhered to, in order to keep everyone safe out there as far as is reasonably practical, regardless of who may or may not find it an inconvience to their profit margin or clocking off time, if that makes sense.
Without us you'd basically just find a lot of people killing themselves and others by working unsafely, and the industry falling apart due to public and employers liability claims.

It's a sad fact of life that we are misunderstood, and yes sometimes vilified. We can only hope that we can be in the right place at the right time. As long as we are the butt of all, we can only do the best we can. we will never please everyone
