The American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP), the world’s oldest professional safety organization with 40,000 members globally, releases the following statement from ASSP President Diana Stegall, CSP, CFPS, ARM, SMS, CPCU, on behalf of the Society’s Board of Directors:
“Countless demonstrations across the country have underscored the critical need for leaders and citizens to work together to understand and overcome systemic inequities to protect the safety and health of every American. Our nation should have arrived at this seminal moment without the senseless and tragic loss of so many black lives, including George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor.
