House of Delegates votes yes on ASSP, no on new logo
The world’s oldest safety profession took a historic step yesterday by moving toward the adoption of a new name – one that its supporters say better reflects its diverse membership.
The American Society of Safety Engineers’ (ASSE) House of Delegates voted in favor of the ASSE becoming the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP). That proposal now heads to a membership vote that spans 45 days. ASSE members worldwide will cast their votes through electronic ballots that will be tallied in early August.
