Champions of Safety Contest

    May 18, 1999
    It's little surprise that 18- to 34-year-olds are at the heart of a nationwide increase in illegal drug use, and the manufacturing industry traditionally draws heavily from this pool of job seekers.

    It's last call for Occupational Hazards' fifth annual Champions of Safety contest.

    Candidates for the contest are individuals or teams who are responsible for the health and safety concerns of a single operation or group of operations; a work force which has extensive involvement in workplace safety; or an individual who has advanced the practice of occupational safety and health.

    Entrants will be judged on activities and performance that have occurred for a minimum of three years.

    The winners will be honored at Occupational Hazards' Champions of Safety Conference & Expo., Sept. 21-22, at the Baltimore Convention Center.

    For entry forms or more information, call Pat Fernberg at (216) 931-9540. The deadline for entries is June 1.
