Speaker Topics
Building on the foundational aspects of safety, this year’s theme, Safety Foundations: Constructing a Culture of Excellence, continues our pursuit of safety and business excellence.
Speakers should be familiar with last year’s sold-out conference, which focused on psychological health and safety in the construction industry.
Submissions must advance the conference theme. We are particularly interested in the following topics:
- Legislation/compliance/standards/case law
- Research/case studies
- Innovation/technology
- Best practices on specific health and safety topics:
- Contract management
- Work organization/design (link to psychological health and safety)
- Occupational hygiene/environmental factors (link to psychological health and safety)
- Managing complex teams (language, cultures, generations)
Preference will be given to hands-on, interactive workshops. Practical take-aways are required, including a 1-page handout for attendees.
Proposal Requirements
- Submissions must be provided via the official submission form – no submissions sent via email will be considered.
- Errors, misspellings, and incorrect abbreviations will not be corrected.
- An individual may submit more than one proposal. One official online submission is required for each proposal.
- There is no fee to submit proposals.
Copyright Permission
By submitting a speaker proposal to the conference, submitters authorize, upon acceptance, the permission to reproduce their presentation description, photo and biography in the conference program and website.
