With more than 500 exhibitors showing their products and services at the ASSE Professional Development Conference & Exposition, it’s not a bad idea to plan your itinerary in advance, so you won’t miss something you really want to see.
Gasco would like to host a visit! Come meet with a representative, have a light lunch and see the facility. Located only 1.5 hours from the Orlando Convention Center. (Very close to the Gulf of Mexico and beautiful white sandy beaches)

Safety 2014 also offers networking, socializing and golf
March 28, 2014
While the educational sessions will be the central focus of most of those who head to Orlando June 8 – 11 for Safety 2014, there are lots of social activities to help round out the convention experience. The American Society of Safety Engineers Foundation’s golf outing will get underway with a Shotgun Start at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday, June 8 at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club® Orlando.
Safety professionals who are heading to Orlando for the Safety 2014 conference and exposition June 8-11 can take advantage of a number of certification exam workshops being held in conjunction with the event. CSP, OHST, CHST, STS and Math Review workshops are scheduled from June 5 through June 14, with multiple date and time options available for most workshops, allowing Safety 2014 attendees to schedule them around sessions they want to attend.
With more than 200 speakers presenting sessions at Safety 2014, it can be a little daunting trying to decide which ones you want to add to your schedule. To help you decide, ASSE has invited all of its speakers to create short videos introducing their sessions.
North American Occupational Safety and Health Week, or NAOSH Week, occurs every year during the first full week of May. Occupational Safety and Health Professional Day (OSHP Day) falls on the Wednesday of that week. ASSE urges everyone to get involved in NAOSH Week in an effort to better educate the public about the positive benefits a safe workplace provides not only for workers, but for their families, friends, businesses, their local communities and the global community.
Gone are the days when convention-goers who wanted to stay organized had to scribble notes on the margins of their paper brochures, or mark asterisks next to the sessions they wanted to attend or the speakers they wished to hear.
Planning on attending Safety 2014? Make sure you mark your calendar for June 11 – the day the Executive Summit takes place in Ballroom H of the Orlando Convention Center.
If a worker is injured slipping from a ladder while accessing an electrical panel, does this incident warrant more training on the employee’s part on how to properly use a ladder or does it call into question larger organizational issues that should be addressed?
