Throughout the conference and expo, you will network with exhibitors, visit with colleagues and peers, as well as experience a variety of educational opportunities including four General Sessions and customized breakouts tracks - Safety and Compliance, Human Resources and Technology and Maintenance.
Meeting in-person is now more important than ever, and the networking opportunities at this conference have been expanded to ensure that you will spend time with colleagues and industry vendors.
Exhibits feature member companies from our industry's manufacturers and suppliers showcasing their latest products and technology, consulting services and much more. We are projecting record attendance this year, so don't miss this prime opportunity to highlight your company.
At the closing Awards Banquet we will be recognizing the 2022 Fleet & Industrial Safety winners and the 2022 Professionals of the Year. To nominate your company for the safety contests or someone as a professional winner, visit the nomination page by clicking here.
