We are the local chapter of the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) located in the Southwestern Virginia area. Our members are professionals that come from areas throughout Southwestern Virginia, who work in the safety field, dedicating our time and expertise to protecting fellow workers from injuries on the job. We meet monthly, on the second Monday of the month, to network, learn and share our experience with others. This Chapter promotes the advancement of the safety profession and safety professionals. We also promote the development of members in the geographical area served.
ASSP is a global association for occupational safety and health professionals. For more than 100 years, we have provided education, standards development, advocacy and a professional community to support the advancement of our members and the profession as a whole. Our members are dedicated to creating safe work environments by preventing workplace fatalities, injuries and illnesses. Sound safety practices are both socially responsible and good business, leading to increased productivity, a better reputation and higher employee satisfaction.
