Benchmarking for the BWC

The Lake County Safety Council is proud to present the October program --- Benchmarking for the BWC -- on Friday, October 17.

He has helped hundreds of companies evaluate, develop and implement effective safety and health programs.

Gaul will share statistical data showing the dramatic impact of a comprehensive safety process, and how safety can be integrated into any current business management model.

The meeting will be held at the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites LaMalfa, with registration beginning at 11:15 a.m.
