Technology’s Role in the Future of Workplace Safety, A Focus on AI

Technology is an important component of everyday life. Its role in helping to keep our workplaces safe is ever increasing. Learn about and discuss existing technologies available to safety professionals and the future of technology’s role, specifically Artificial Intelligence (AI), in helping to keep people safe. Learn how AI can identify high risk behaviors and near-misses and through coaching and intervention strategies this technology/human partnership can reduce injuries in the workplace.

Matt was the 18th employee hired and has been a consistent part of Voxel’s journey and growth. Matt has directly assisted Voxel customers in integrating computer vision and AI into their existing safety programs to achieve success. Previously to Voxel, Matt worked at VelocityEHS – one of the top three SAAS EHS Software companies which has allowed him to learn the challenges Safety, Operations, and Risk folks face day-to-day and provide technology solutions for those challenges.

Lunch will be provided, likely to be a box lunch or catering tray.

New CIL ASSP LinkedIn Page!!

May 29, 2024

The Central Illinois Chapter of the American Society of Safety Professionals (cil.assp.org) has created a new LinkedIn Group called ASSP Central Illinois Chapter. Please connect with the new group at this link:

https://lnkd.in/egPmBMij
 

The old LinkedIn page has been defunct for several years and has been shown as ASSE Central Illinois, which is our old name and branding as of June 2018.  The current Executive Committee felt it was appropriate to create a new LinkedIn page since we could not gain access to the old account to update the name and keep things current.  A succession and access plan has been established to assure that the new page is accessible by the Executive Committee going forward.   Please be patient with us as we begin to use this new LinkedIn page for the Central Illinois Chapter of ASSP.

Thank you,
Stig T. Ruxlow
CIL ASSP Chapter President 2023-2024
