The need for Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) professionals in today’s workplaces continues to rise. In today’s economy however, more and more companies are insisting on being able to quantify clear roles and benefits for hiring EH&S staff and for supporting the programs they develop and implement. The Indiana University of Pennsylvania Chapter and the Western Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Society of Safety Engineers are hosting this conference “Today’s Safety Professional” to address some of those issues by bringing together experts to help facilitate the discussion.
