MIHS Sponsored AIHA TeleWebs

On August 10, 2006, MIHS sponsored the AIHA teleweb, "Third Party Liability in Construction Safety and Health" with a total of 12 people participating. The event was held at the Marsh offices - Renaissance Center in downtown Detroit. It was an excellent opportunity to network with colleagues and earn 0.5 certification maintenance points. Marsh graciously hosted the event and provided parking, conference facilities, and refreshments. This is the third time they have hosted a teleweb, and MIHS would like to extend a special word of thanks.
Mille gratia!
The presenter, Richard Gleason, CIG, CSP, CHMM from Seattle, Washington helped illuminate the tangled web of contractor liability. Attendees learned about correcting employers, controlling employers, exposing employers and creating employers and how they are all potentially liable in the event of a workplace accident. Did you know that a General Contractor could be cited under OSHA even though he had no exposed employees?

If you missed this TeleWeb, be sure to watch for the MIHS offerings of future AIHA Tele Web conferences.
