The American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) is seeking a diverse group of occupational safety and health professionals to present at the Safety 2025 Professional Development Conference and Exposition in Orlando. The submission deadline is Sept. 11.
Safety 2025 – scheduled for July 22-24 at the Orange County Convention Center – will be attended by more than 6,000 occupational safety and health professionals looking for solutions to today’s workplace safety challenges.

Prospective speakers must identify emerging issues, develop strategies for overcoming safety challenges and aim to expand attendee knowledge and professional skills.
“It’s a terrific opportunity for safety and health experts to contribute to the development of their colleagues while advancing our industry,” said ASSP President Pam Walaski, CSP, FASSP, who has been a conference speaker every year since 2005. “Being a safety presenter is truly a rewarding experience.”
