What's your safety culture like?

Ohio TAPPI presents a seminar on creating a culture of safety in the paper industry.

Most people in the industry understand what is safe to do and what is not. The Ohio TAPPI program won't preach to the choir about good EH&S practices. The program's focus will be on what it takes to make safety an integral part of the culture in a company.

Attendees may hear a little bit of the ‘nuts and bolts' of safety at the upcoming meeting. However, the goal is not another seminar with pictures of horrific accidents scaring everyone into following safety rules and regulations. Instead, the seminar provides a program covering different perspectives on creating a culture of safety in operations within the Ohio TAPPI local section. The perspectives will be presented by employees, management, consultants, and regulators we have lined up to speak and take questions.

The seminar will be held December 2, 2011 at the Roberts Centre in Wilmington, OH. It's located just off 71 at the exit for route 68. As always, seating is limited, so pre-registration guarantees you a spot. Meeting fees are $25 for TAPPI members who pre-register, and $40 for members at the door. The cost for non-members is a flat $50. Students are free. Please pre-register with our treasurer, Glen Miller, who can be reached at glen.miller@mohawkpaper.com.
