Grubbs to Speak at Arkansas Department of Labor Event

JONESBORO, Ark. - Aug. 15, 2016 - PRLog -- John Grubbs will share safety and generational insights on September 22, 2016 for members representing companies from all over Arkansas and surrounding states. John's presentations entitled "The Ugly Truth about Behavior-Based Safety" and "The Millennial Paradox" will help attendees discover the little known path to success with Behavior-Based Safety (BBS) as well as the complexities required to successfully lead today's emerging millennial workforce.

Whether you are employed by a private company, a business owner, or work for a public agency, you and your co-workers can benefit greatly from attending this safety conference. The purpose of this event is to enhance workplace hazard recognition and strengthen a culture of workplace safety, thereby reducing employee injuries and illnesses.

While these conferences are intended for hourly employees, we encourage all companies to also send members of their safety committees, supervisors or managers with safety responsibilities, and any others who might benefit from basic safety training. Nursing home administrators and nurses may also use this training for continuing education purposes.

The registration fee of $25 covers lunch and conference materials. Pre-registration is encouraged, as this allows the event organizers to plan accordingly. Cancellations will be accepted until two days prior to the conference and substitutions are permitted.  FOR MORE INFORMATION Contact: Nita Matlock Phone: 501-682-9092 email: nita.matlock@arkansas.gov
