The Workplace Safety and Health sessions will span the entire period of the conference, beginning in the afternoon on Monday, August 21st and concluding at noon on Wednesday, August 23rd. “The sessions are wide-ranging and reflect the unique challenges and opportunities faced by the industry, from employers to safety and health professionals. Specific injury categories and accident causes will be addressed such as PTSD, Heat Stress, Workplace Violence, and the ever-present Slips, Trips, and Falls. The sessions will also cover practical take-aways and tools for injury prevention, lowering injury rates, and mitigating losses.
