AGC Safety and Health Conference Approaching

Registration is now open for the next AGC Safety and Health Conference to be held on July 22 - 24, 2009, in Washington, D.C.  The hotel cut-off date is June 22, 2009.  Please review the meeting flyer and register for this important meeting. This is an excellent opportunity to interact with 150 industry professionals and hear the latest news from OSHA, members of Congress and other industry experts.  There is a great deal of activity taking place right now in Washington concerning safety issues; do not miss this chance to hear from, meet and interact with key decision-makers. Several of the top leaders from OSHA will address AGC members during the conference, including Senator Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.) and Congressman Tom Price (R-Ga.), who will participate in the meeting to provide updates on legislative issues as they relate to safety and health.  Also, this will be the first opportunity to schedule Capitol Hill visits.  Once you register for the conference, AGC staff will contact you on your willingness to participate in these important visits and will arrange meetings with your Representative and Senators on Wednesday afternoon, July 22. If you choose to take advantage of this opportunity, AGC will provide you with appropriate briefing materials and will make our Government Affairs staff available to accompany you on visits if you wish.
