The National Safety Council’s 2014 Congress and Expo begins this weekend and we’re thrilled that the conference’s 14,000 attendees will be able to attend sessions by a number of SafeStart speakers.

Tim Page-Bottorff’s  extremely popular Humor in Safety session (#39, Sept 15, 3:30-5:00pm) will teach you how to make your safety training more engaging through the use of personal anecdotes, humorous materials, storytelling and more.

Don Wilson’s talk on Leading Safety 24/7 in a Global Environment (#57, Sept 16, 1:45-3:15pm) explains that because employees are your company’s most vital asset you need to keep them safe not only at work but off the job as well—and Don will introduce proven techniques to do exactly that.

Danny Smith’s session After Compliance, Then What? (#49, Sept 16, 1:45-3:15pm) discusses why meeting safety compliance requirements isn’t enough to eradicate workplace injuries, and explains how you can move beyond compliance to further reduce your company’s injury rate.

Jack Jackson’s Conquering the Caveman: Citizens Against Virtually Everything (#57, Sept 16, 1:45-3:15pm) presentation will help you identify the people who are holding you back from achieving your safety goals—and discuss what you can do about it.

Larry Wilson’s Creating a Culture of Voluntary Compliance (#107, Sept 17, 1:00-2:30pm) will provide practical advice on how to create a safety culture of voluntary compliance in which people choose to work and drive safely on their own.

You can also visit SafeStart at booth #5227 to chat with our representatives and to learn more about how human factors training can transform your safety culture and help you reduce injuries by 30-70%.

We’re looking forward to seeing everyone at the upcoming NSC Congress and Expo!
