PRESIDENT'S LETTER

Greetings Everyone!

I hope you all are enjoying your summer activities. As we ramp back up for the fall, we will look to continuing our technical presentations. A survey will go out in the next day or two. I promise it will take 2 mintues or less to fill out. Please take the time to fill out this survey as it will determine if Penn-Jersey will return to in person meetings for the technical session. We may also elect to do a hybrid in-person and virtual meeting. The survey will also gauge what topics that you may like to learn about. We will use this information to help determine how the September 21, technical session will be held.

Respectfully,

David Guirguess, CSP, PMP, CHST
President, Penn-Jersey Chapter
American Society of Safety Professionals
