Turn compliance into competitive advantage by elevating your safety program!

In manufacturing, safety isn’t just a requirement, it’s a key differentiator.

Join industry expert Shawn Renaldi as he shares how to apply OSHA’s Recommended Practices for Safety and Health Programs to create a proactive, systems-based safety strategy built for the realities of the plant floor. You'll leave with actionable steps to elevate your company's safety program and support your team's performance.

In this session, you’ll learn:

• How a systems approach can transform your safety program into a strategic asset.
• Proven ways to reduce downtime, liability, and operational risk.
• Insights from fellow manufacturers on real-world challenges and solutions.
• Practical tools to take your safety efforts beyond legal compliance.
