German term
Werkleiter vom Dienst
German to English
Tech/Engineering
Manufacturing
Chemical plant
Section of a document relating to plant safety procedures, one of which is:
Rundgang WLvD (Werkleiter vom Dienst)
While I'm assuming something like "on-duty plant manager", I'm guessing there is a specific title for this role in English that I'm not familiar with, so any help from an expert here would be appreciated.
(is there a difference between a Werkleiter and Werksleiter..? Or WLvD and WvD?)

on-duty plant manager
Given the context of a production area, I see nothing at all wrong with your instincts here. "Duty manager" I would reserve for hotels, restaurants and bars and the like.
