• Educate SCHC members on hazard communication issues;
• Provide a forum for exchange of ideas and experiences;
• Enhance the awareness of members and the general public of new developments in hazard communication; and
• Provide guidance or technical expertise to a private group, legislative body, or governmental entity.

  What is Total Worker Health? This issue is becoming more discussed in workplaces and covers a variety of ways that we can support our workers outside of traditional health and safety paths. We’ll discuss supporting mental health, wellness, and the various programs that companies are putting in place to assist workers inside and outside of work.
