In Case You Missed It: Highlights from NSC Congress & Expo

In this podcast, Editor Sydny Shepard touches on the Occupational Keynote from OSHA Head Doug Parker, NSC’s Work to Zero Initiative and the unveiling of OSHA’s Top 10 Violations for fiscal year 2022.

I don’t know about you, but I am just getting back into the swing of things following four days in sunny San Diego. I wasn’t on vacation, I was actually walking the expo floor, sitting in on sessions and attending the keynotes of the National Safety Council’s 2022 Safety Congress & Expo.

If you’re not familiar with NSC’s Safety Congress & Expo, the conference is the world’s largest safety event for industry-leading technology, education, networking opportunities and the tried and true products and services needed to stay at the forefront and remain competitive within the industry.

So, for those who couldn’t be at the show in San Diego, or even those who were at the show, but couldn’t sit in on some of the sessions that I did, I wanted to give an update on everything you might have missed.
