Seminars and Conferences
Whether you are employed by a private company, a business owner, or work for a public agency, you and your co-workers can benefit greatly from attending a safety conference. The purpose of these events is to enhance workplace hazard recognition and strengthen a culture of workplace safety, thereby reducing employee injuries and illnesses.
While these conferences are intended for hourly employees, we encourage all companies to also send members of their safety committees, supervisors or managers with safety responsibilities, and any others who might benefit from basic safety training. Nursing home administrators and nurses may also use this training for continuing education purposes.
The registration fee covers lunch and conference materials. Pre-registration is encouraged, as this allows the event organizers to plan accordingly. Cancellations will be accepted until two days prior to the conference and substitutions are permitted.
All major credit cards are accepted.
The Workers’ Safety Conferences leading up to July 31, 2020 have all been cancelled and new dates are being discussed.
