Keeping an Ear Out for New Safety Insights

ASSP CEO Jennifer McNelly discusses her organization’s annual Corporate Listening Tour, the primary safety challenges currently facing organizations it has uncovered, and how safety professionals can address them.

For the past four years, the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) has conducted an annual Corporate Listening Tour in which it surveys business leaders on their safety concerns. It then releases an annual report based on that tour. The 2024 edition of that report yielded some eye-opening and helpful workplace safety insights.

Jennifer McNelly, the Chief Executive Officer of ASSP, joins the podcast to discuss what the association learned from corporate leaders this year, and the trends are thought-provoking, to say the least. They cover workplace safety applications of AI, empowering workplace safety and health leaders in the changing workplace, and much more. This is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
