Description

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) is an important component of safety and health and is increasingly integrated into workplace safety and health plans. While we do know Hispanic or Latino workers experience a fatality rate 36% higher than white non-Hispanic workers while black or African American workers have a rate 6% higher. There is a lot we do not know. Also, the link between DE&I and safety outcomes may be unclear for some professionals.

We have assembled a stellar panel to facilitate an extended conversation on the topic of occupational safety and health and DE&I. Join us for part of all of a 90-minute presentation.
