Prevention through design continues to gain traction within the SH&E community. Presentation articles and supporting documents from NIOSH’s PTD workshop, held Aug. 22-24 in Washington, DC, have been posted here on ASSE’s website. ASSE was a sponsor of the event and Government Affairs staff reports that ASSE is a PTD organizational partner and plays an active role in accomplishing goals in the PTD strategic plan. The sessions covered education, practice, policy and research issues, and next steps.
