This popular session always brings up quite a bit of debate. Join to see how much you really know about EHS. An urban legend is something one person says that is not true but gets repeated enough times to become “fact”.  Have you ever heard HAZCOM requires annual training or SDSs are required for all chemicals, or Lockout/Tagout in construction only applies to electricity?  Are any – or all of these – true?

This is an interactive session to see as a whole how well we know these truths we hold to be valid and if they are or not. You’ll be surprised to hear what isn’t really true!

This is a free event.
