As BCSP is seeking nominations of safety professionals for this year’s Award of Excellence (AoE), we want to make sure you also know about how you can recognize aspiring safety professionals. Each year, the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) holds a safety poster contest for youth. This year, youth age 13-17 are encouraged to make videos as well.
The contest is part of raising awareness of workplace safety in conjunction with North American Occupational Safety and Health (NAOSH) Week. You can see the thought contestants put into the top posters from the 2013 “Safety on the Job” contest.
Young people who would like to participate can sign up and submit their artwork online. The deadline is February 28, 2014, so the time has come to put those thinking caps on!
