a choice of more than 60 sessions. These sessions will be presented
by safety and health professionals with expertise in general industry,

medicine, and other topics relative to all aspects of workplace safety
and health. State of the art training techniques and materials will
be used to insure that participants receive the latest information
available.
Safety managers, supervisors, plant managers, safety committee members, industrial hygienists, human resource managers, risk managers, healthcare providers, and employees will be offered the unique opportunity to exchange information and ideas with safety & health professionals in their field.
