Welcome!

The Northern Ohio Chapter of ASSE serves Ashtabula, Belmont, Carroll, Columbiana, Cuyahoga, Geauga, Harrison, Huron, Jefferson, Lake, Lorain, Mahoning, Monroe, Portage, Stark, and Trumbull counties. Currently we have about 220 members in our chapter and as you can see from the number of counties that we serve our membership is spread out over a large area. If you know of a group of ASSE members that would like to have some meetings/events in areas that are closer to them, please let us know and we will see what we can do to accommodate.

   

ASSE is coming up on its 100 year anniversary in 2011 and if you have any photographs, information, or just some good stories about ASSE, the Northern Ohio Chapter, or any of our members please share them with us. This information will be passed along to Society Headquarters in Des Plaines, IL and may be used in some of the 100 Year promotional materials they are putting together.

In the Northern Ohio Chapter we continually strive to provide networking opportunities, technical sessions, professional development, fundraising, and scholarships to our membership and the Safety, Health and Environmental community in general. Please spend some time and look through our website to discover the different meetings and events we have planned, and feel free to contact any of us on the Board for more information. As always we look forward to seeing you at one of our events in the near future!

Scott Cole – President of the Northern Ohio Chapter of ASSE

About the American Society of Safety Engineers

Today, millions of people go to and return home from work safely every day due, in part, to the commitment of the occupational safety, health and environmental (SH&E) practitioners who work day in and day out identifying hazards and implementing safety advances in all industries and at all workplaces, thereby reducing workplace fatalities, injuries and illnesses.

Founded in 1911, the Des Plaines, Illinois-based American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) is the oldest and largest safety organization and represents more than 30,000 SH&E practitioners committed to protecting people, property and the environment and are at the forefront of safety engineering, design, standards development, management and education in virtually every industry, governmental agency, labor and education. Presently, ASSE has 151 chapters, 56 sections and 65 student sections. There are also members in 64 countries including Mexico, Ecuador, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, Australia, Kuwait and Egypt. ASSE members serve on over 40 safety and health standards committees including the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

ASSE and its members continue to work towards increasing workplace safety and health and raising awareness globally. Throughout history, the safety profession and safety professionals have attempted to improve working conditions. Through these efforts, many lives are saved each day. However, this work is not complete. Until each worker returns home in the same condition s/he came to work in, ASSE and its members still have a formidable task at hand.
