VPPPA is holding several educational webinars on various

or how to get more out of your Safety Committee!



Safety Committees*
on Wednesday, May 19, from 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm EST

Many companies use committees as a means to gain employee
involvement! This presentation discusses the expectations of effective
committees and how to get past the stage of just having everyone sit
around and discuss complaints. Hear examples of how some
companies design effective committees as well as other best
practices. The webinar will include interactive quizzes and a self
survey so you can gauge the strength of your committee maturity.
Once the survey is completed, it will guide you to continuous
improvement for your committee process!



GHS Readiness Webinar – How to Transition to the Globally
Harmonized System* (GHS)
on Thursday, June 10, from 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm EST

This GHS Readiness webinar will discuss the proposed changes by
