“The safety specialist must strive not only to reduce incidents but also to document and share lessons learned along the way.”

Those words, from ASSE Fellow and a long-time member of the journal’s Editorial Review Board Dr. Milton Rhodes, could not be truer. Writing for the journal is a great way to contribute to the profession’s body of knowledge, advance current practice, and encourage dialogue about issues facing the SH&E profession today and in the future. It's also a great way to gain professional recognition and earn CoC credits.

Each manuscript submitted to Professional Safety is evaluated by ASSE's eight-member Editorial Review Board. The documents below provide writing tips, additional information on submission requirements and details on the journal's referencing format.
