Always a great speaker, Long Beach Chapter Vice-President Luis Ortiz did a great job presenting “Safety Hero vs. Safety Management” at the Education and Networking Session held at CSUDH on August 17, 2023. The session focused on the importance of ensuring that safety is never the job of a single safety professional but is, instead, the job of all.
The event was very well-attended and, in fact, had the highest attendance of any event post-Covid. Safety professionals are eager to get together in person when they can, and this event was certainly evidence of that. Those who attended in person were also treated to lunch provided by the Long Beach Chapter. Of course, the virtual attendance option is always available for those who cannot make it in person, and here again we experienced the highest attendance of any event since Covid! We were very happy to see members from other chapters as well as prospective members and students.
