Joint OCASSP/OCAIHA February 2024 Chapter Meeting
-
February 21, 2024
12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
TOPIC: Honor the ExperienceThe COVID pandemic cost the US economy an estimated $14 trillion, and obliterated the standing and reputation of governmental environmental and occupational health professionals in many parts of the country – a process that continues to this day. Reasoned EHS professionals are well served to reflect on the social, economic, and cultural factors which gave rise to these conditions and their role in perpetuating workplace imbalances. The solution to being effective in this era begins with us as we embrace our roles as chief science officers for our organizations and communities.
