From a Recent Post: "...the greatest value I receive from ASSE membership is the network of concerned safety people-all different, but with a common passion. Technical information is good, too, but the people are what make it for me..." |
ASSE President Chris Patton shared the ideas and perspectives of ASSE’s members in a presentation at OSHA Listens on Thursday, March 4. As Chris’ statement to OSHA states,
“…each idea reflects the hard-won experience gained by our members on the front lines helping manage the safety and health risks that threaten workers and keep companies from achieving the bottom line results they need to be competitive in today’s global marketplace.”
He went on at approximately 11:15 am (Eastern time). A webcast of the entire meeting (replay) can be accessed here. ASSE’s full statement that was submitted to OSHA was put together based on the direct suggestions of members interested and involved in ASSE’s ongoing government affairs activities together with some long-standing issues of importance to the Society. OSHA Listens was originally scheduled for February 10 but had to be postponed due to snow in Washington, DC.
As
ASSE members, we reap certain benefits from our membership. These benefits
vary for each of us as we all have different wants and needs, as well as
a myriad of reasons for belonging to ASSE. Some of those benefits are indirect,
such as advancing the profession and promoting SH&E professionals.
As ASSE members, we also all feel different levels of commitment to the
organization.
One thing is certain, however. No matter what you seek from ASSE, it is
important that you help choose strong leaders who will advance the Society.
March 1 brings us to an important phase in the leadership evolutionary
cycle: Society elections. Some of you may be groaning at hearing the annual
plea to vote, but history suggests that many of you simply will not vote.
I urge you to rethink that. You invest in ASSE—your money, time,
resources—and you expect to receive certain benefits in return. Why
not help maximize those returns by electing the best possible leadership?
