In what capacity are you working 'air side' - employed, contractor, long term?

What are you actually going to do as a job?

If as an employee, your employer should be providing safety training.

Some things to consider

Moving vehicles/pedestrian safety
If you are going to drive, you will have to be approved by ATC
Noise
Security of loose/small objects and understand why - ingestion into aircraft engines
How to approach live aircraft safely, jet efflux, ingestion in front of engines. Propellers hurt!!
Handling fuel/refuelling operations
