  • Safety‑focused manufacturers are shifting from simply preventing accidents to ensuring that as many things as possible go right. This is Safety 2.0—the leading modern safety paradigm for high‑stakes industries like manufacturing.

    IMA’s Annual Safety Conference & Expo has become the go‑to event for cutting‑edge workplace safety and health training, regulatory updates, and key compliance alerts. This year, we’re leveling up with a larger venue, expanded programming, and a deep dive into Safety 2.0—with the goal of helping you build systems that perform reliably under real‑world, ever‑changing conditions.

    A strong safety plan does more than prevent injuries, it protects your workforce, reduces costly non‑compliance risks, and shifts your culture from “blaming the operator” to “learning the system” so employees can adapt and succeed. And in today’s labor market, a safe workplace is a competitive advantage that helps attract and retain frontline talent.

    Join this event for a dynamic, practical, and highly engaging program that connects you with peer manufacturers, safety leaders, regulators, and top attorneys who will share the latest developments, strategies, and innovations to strengthen your EHS performance.
