Safety Leadership Conference 2023: Three Days of Safety Excellence in Pictures

Oct. 20, 2023
Visual highlights from EHS Today's 12th annual Safety Leadership Conference, held in Orlando.

"Establishing a Culture of Safety Excellence" was the theme of the 12th annual Safety Leadership Conference (SLC 2023), held September 18-20, in Orlando, Florida. Roughly 300 safety professionals spent three days networking, sharing best practices, and learning from their peers how to build a sustain world-class safety cultures.

The event included keynote presentations from Ben Andrew, Rick Fulwiler and Stephen Jenkins; workshops; facility tours of Mitsubishi Power and Nautique Boats; a Tabletop Expo; and 15 sessions organized into five topic areas: Risk Management, Regulatory Compliance, The ROI of Safety, Safety Technology, and Training & Engagement. And thanks to our co-location partnership with VPPPA, SLC attendees were also able to attend some of the VPPPA's Safety+ sessions.

As in years past, one of the highlights of SLC 2023 was a gala event honoring the 10 winners of the 2023 America’s Safest Companies awards.

The following pages offer visual highlights from SLC 2023 (unless otherwise noted, all photos were taken by Endeavor's Robert Schoenberger), but of course these are just snapshots from an event that's already happened. If you want to make sure you're part of the industry's leading event dedicated to safety leadership, make plans now to attend Safety Leadership Conference 2024, August 26-28, in Denver, Colorado. Hope to see you there!
