The 2026 conference will mark the 28th year of this renowned event, featuring two keynote presentations, 22 seminar sessions, 4 optional post-conference courses, and over 75 tradeshow booths. Consistently one of Canada’s largest and most popular occupational safety events, it has sold out for the 12 of the past 13 years! What sets this conference apart from others? Each year, the conference steering committee travels across Canada and the U.S. to find the latest, most engaging, and high-quality sessions and speakers, working diligently to bring them to Vancouver. If you attend only one conference in 2026, make it this one!
