“OSHA's recent issuance of a ‘National Emphasis Program’ (NEP) for combustible dusts is a direct reminder of the potential hazards we live with daily. In addition, 2007 was a very bad year for confined space related fatalities.
Don't spend another minute wondering if you are doing all you can and should be to protect your employees. This year’s OMT will feature the latest, greatest and best available information on these subjects presented by knowledgeable industry members with hands-on experience. Participants will not only receive a regulatory update on current standards, but practical ways to comply with them. Don't miss this opportunity!”
- GEAPS International President 2008-2009 Mark Daniels
“The OM&T seminar will provide a unique, cost-effective educational opportunity developed explicitly for professionals in the grain handling and processing industry. Industry professionals from within our ranks have selected and developed session topics to present at the seminar, and the information provided will be timely and presented in a format that attendees will immediately benefit from. The additional opportunity to network with professionals with the same day-to-day concerns you have will make this year’s OM&T seminar the ‘can’t miss’ event of the summer.”
- Kevin Danner, West Central, Chair, GEAPS/NGFA Safety, Health & Environmental Quality Committee
“Our industry has experienced a major reduction in fire and explosion incidents over the past 30 years, largely attributable to facility managers’ commitment to provide ongoing education and training for employees on these hazards. Yet, the recent uptick in fatalities resulting from bin-entry incidents points out the constant need for refresher training on proper safety procedures. This seminar provides one of the best opportunities anywhere to make that happen. The expertise represented by this outstanding industry faculty is priceless, and something you can't find anywhere else. I encourage you and your employees to take advantage of this incomparable NGFA/GEAPS seminar. Do it now, because you won't have another opportunity until 2010!”
