Engineer is quite limiting in the world of safety, it’s only the technical approach, the specific resolution of engineering problems. The word “professional” is more all-embracing. Safety is such a wide field of practice -- psychology, risk management, insurance, fire protection, environmental — ASSP allows us to be more inclusive. We still have a practice specialty for engineering. We will not be getting completely out of safety engineering. But we want to focus on the protection of people, property and the environment — not only human capital but physical assets and preventing events that can be damaging to the environment.
