Major workplace safety conference coming to Portland

Employers: The GOSH conference is only held every two years — don't miss the 2009 event!

Injury prevention should be a priority at every workplace. Yet keeping employee safety and health training up to date is a challenge in these tough economic times.

The 2009 Oregon Governor's Occupational Safety and Health Conference, better known as GOSH, can give employers a competitive edge.

That's because GOSH is one of the best values in safety training. The conference, which will be held March 9-12, 2009 at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, features 30 full-day workshops, 115 single-topic classes, and 150 exhibit booths.

The topics include:
  • Safety committees: Beyond the basics
  • Safety training and your multicultural workforce
  • Motor vehicle safety
  • Back to basics: Effective hazard recognition and analysis for a safe workplace

SAIF Corporation is proud to be a platinum sponsor of GOSH as part of its mission to make Oregon workplaces as safe as possible.

Conference registration begins in January. More information is available on the Oregon GOSH website, www.oregongosh.com.
