Safety 2023 attendance ranks best in event’s history
The signature event of the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) attracted nearly 6,000 occupational safety and health professionals in June to set an in-person attendance record for the global event. An additional 300-plus people joined a livestream session while 2,100 exhibitor representatives populated the exposition hall, ultimately involving more than 8,300 people in the Safety 2023 Professional Development Conference and Exposition in San Antonio.
“We saw a big desire from safety professionals to network with colleagues and stay current on best practices, industry trends and the latest product innovations,” said ASSP President Jim Thornton, CSP, CIH, FASSP, FAIHA. “It was incredible to see a record turnout so soon after the pandemic. Safety 2023 was a true success.”
