National Teen Driver Safety Week (October 18–24, 2026) is a reminder that safe habits start early.

For teens behind the wheel, staying focused, following speed limits, wearing a seat belt, and avoiding distractions can make all the difference.

Parents and caregivers also play an important role by modeling safe driving habits and having regular conversations about responsibility on the road.

Let’s help young drivers build the skills and awareness they need for a safer future.

Above ground or below it, safety starts with understanding. 👷‍♂️🏗️

We pride ourselves on taking construction safety beyond the norm. Lately, we've been doing that with hands-on lessons in scaffolding, excavation, and trenching!

🔹 In Richmond, Warren Rice led scaffolding training at ABC Richmond, helping participants strengthen their understanding of safe scaffold practices.

🔹 In Chesapeake, VA, Scott Edwards' OSHA 510 class got creative, building scaffold models to bring construction safety standards to life.

🔹 And this week, John Sewell's OSHA 3015 class headed outdoors for a closer look at trench safety, thanks to TrenchTech who brought out a trench box for a real-world demonstration!

A big thank-you to our instructors, and TrenchTech Inc. for helping us make safety education something participants can see, explore, and apply on the job.

🛠️ Tool Tethering
🚧 Barricading
📦 Material Securement
🚛 Safe Cargo

Come learn practical ways to spot hazards, secure what’s above, and help keep workers safe below.

CRSC Members, you’re invited!

• Free event
• Live demonstrations

Last Thursday was one for the books.
Our brought together our largest crowd yet for a full day of learning, collaboration, and connection.

From a thought-provoking keynote and practical breakout sessions to a packed expo floor and conversations that continued well beyond the sessions, the day was a great example of what happens when the safety community comes together with a shared purpose. Safety is a team sport. And this conference proved it.

We’re grateful to every attendee, speaker, exhibitor, sponsor, volunteer, and partner who contributed to making this our biggest and best conference yet.
What makes this event valuable isn’t just what happens on the stage. It’s the conversations in the hallways, the ideas exchanged between professionals, the connections made across industries, and the knowledge everyone takes back to their teams.

Thank you for being part of it and for continuing to help us educate and influence people to prevent accidental injury and death.
We’ll see you next year.

What does it take to build safer? Sometimes, you have to raise the bar.

In the Lindsay Ballroom sponsored by Gaines and Company, Inc. , this year’s brings together three sessions examining what happens when construction safety moves beyond the basics and into the details that can make or break a project.

9:00–10:00 AM | The Strength Behind the Structure: More Than Just Concrete and Steel
Alex Krom, Structural Technologies
A structure can be compromised long before anyone sees a failure. Explore how overloading, improper shoring, incorrect steel placement, and unplanned modifications can create serious risks, and how planning, inspections, and communication can help catch problems before they become failures.

10:30–11:30 AM | Safe, Not Just Compliant: Arc-Rated PPE Daily Wear vs. Task-Based
Derek Sang, QSSP, CSHEP, CPPES, CHSAT, Bulwark FR
When it comes to arc flash protection, checking the compliance box is only the beginning. Compare daily-wear and task-based approaches to arc-rated PPE and explore practical ways to address employee concerns, improve training, and build a program people will actually use.

2:00–3:00 PM | The Strictest Client in the Room: How Data Centers Pushed Construction Safety Forward
Kate O’Hara, CSP, CHST, Rock Spring Contracting
George Stallings, CPMR, Sales Solutions Inc.
Data centers have brought increasingly demanding safety expectations to the construction industry. See how those expectations are driving PPE innovation, stronger contractor safety cultures, and greater accountability, and why lessons learned in data center construction may have applications far beyond the industry.

Different challenges. Different perspectives. One common goal: raising the standard for what safe construction looks like.

If you work in construction safety, these sessions offer plenty to think about, question, and take back to the jobsite.

A safety program can look great on paper. But what happens when it’s time to put it to work?

That question runs through the day in the Grason Room Sponsored by The Baldwin Group at this year’s . These three sessions take a closer look at what makes safety programs effective in the real world.

9:00–10:00 AM | Bridging the Gap from Compliance to Operational Readiness
Robin Shusko, Ed.D., MDPEMP, CEM, Frederick Community College
Having the plans, training, and documentation is only part of the equation. Explore how role clarity, decision-making, communication, stop-work expectations, and supervisor readiness can turn compliance into true operational preparedness.

10:30–11:30 AM | Training the Industrial Athlete: Strategies for Performance, Well-Being, and Lasting Change
Kris Corbett, BS, ACSM, NSCA, Briotix Health LP
The people doing the work are at the center of every safety program. Learn how movement, recovery, mindfulness, resilience, and coaching can help address fatigue, stress, musculoskeletal risks, and an aging workforce while supporting better performance and well-being.

2:00–3:00 PM | Safer Starts, Stronger Teams: The Link Between Mentorship and Retention
Marinho Goncalves, CSP, CHST, Garney
The first 180 days can shape much more than a new employee’s introduction to the job. Discover how mentorship, training, and engagement can help new workers develop safe habits, build connections, strengthen your safety culture, and stay with the organization.

Three sessions. Three ways to move safety from something you document to something you do.

If you’re looking for practical ideas you can take back to your workplace and put into action, make the Grason Room part of your conference day.

Some safety conversations are easy. These aren’t.

The Owens Amphitheater Breakout room Sponsored by Midpoint Technology Group is where the 2026 gets into the situations that can test a safety professional’s judgment, preparedness, and ability to act.

Across three sessions, we’ll tackle workplace violence, substance use and impairment, and the ethical decisions that come with being an EHS professional.

9:00–10:00 AM | Workplace Violence: What Really Happens
Lev Pobirsky, Ashley Furniture
What happens when a threat becomes a real situation? Explore warning signs, human responses during violent events, evolving workplace violence risks, and practical strategies for strengthening preparedness and response.

10:30–11:30 AM | What Every Employer Should Know About Drug & Alcohol Policies
Sandra Serrano, American Substance Abuse Professionals Inc
Cannabis laws, impairment, reasonable suspicion, testing, documentation, and DOT and non-DOT requirements can create a complicated landscape for employers. Get practical guidance for navigating these challenges while protecting both workplace safety and compliance.

2:00–3:00 PM | Ethics and the EHS Professional
Adele Abrams, ASP, CMSP, Littler Mendelson
When the right answer isn't immediately obvious, where do you turn? Through case studies and discussion, this session examines the ethical quandaries EHS professionals can face and how to work through them when the stakes are high.

Different topics. Different challenges. One common thread: safety professionals are often the ones who have to make the call when things get complicated.

Come prepared to ask questions, challenge your thinking, and leave with strategies you can take back to your workplace.

🤖 What happens when AI meets safety?

You can read about artificial intelligence all day, but at this year’s , you can see how it’s actually being used to change the way safety professionals work.

Sponsored by James G. Davis Construction (DAVIS), the Duncan Room is your destination for three sessions exploring AI from very different angles, from taking work off your plate to identifying hazards and giving workers practical support in the field.

9:00–10:00 AM | Do Less. Prevent More
Mike Bartsch, Soter Analytics

Discover how AI built specifically for safety professionals can reduce administrative work, identify critical hazards and control gaps, strengthen documentation, and give EHS teams more time to focus on what they do best: preventing injuries.

10:30–11:30 AM | TECHNOLOGY – It is a GAME CHANGER!
Jason McCree, Everguard.ai

See computer vision and AI in action through real-world video evidence, with technology designed to recognize conditions, actions, and behaviors that can lead to injuries and alert workers before an incident occurs.

2:00–3:00 PM | Not Just AI: Field-Ready Safety Support for the Worker
Brian Anderson, OSHAlytics LLC

Take AI out of the dashboard and into the field. Explore how AI-assisted tools can help workers identify and report hazards, access procedures, complete inspections, verify training, and initiate corrective action while keeping safety leaders in control.

If AI is changing the way you think about safety, the Duncan Room is worth a stop.
