-We were reminded that the next scheduled meeting is to be a gathering at the
Ohio (BWC) Safety Congress in Columbus to be held March 31– April 2nd. As a
heads up this is an excellent opportunity for Ohio employers to attend a free conference on safety. It will just cost transportation and accommodations. This conference is on par with the National organization but focused for Ohio employers. Register on line through the Ohio BWC website.
