The Annual Utah Conference on Safety and Industrial Hygiene is designed to provide a forum for the exchange of information and ideas related to oc-cupational and environmental health and safety issues that affect the work-place, general environment and community. General and concurrent safety and industrial hygiene sessions focus on current safety, industrial hygiene and environmental issues as well as technical updates and information on more effective interaction in the workplace. One-day of selected short courses precedes the two-day general and concurrent session conference.

Short Course #3OSHA 7225: Transitioning to

Safer Chemicals8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.

This course covers a proactive ap-proach to reducing the use of hazard-ous chemicals in the workplace by tran-sitioning to safer alternatives.

Short Course #4Incident Investigation/CSI

8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.The Salt Lake Technical Center sup-ports OSHA compliance officers inves-tigate difficult and novel accidents in workplaces. The root cause of many fa-tal incidents is not immediately obvious. Understanding the why of an event goes a long way to preventing future acci-dents. Actual cases will be used to high-light the varied and different ways OSHA scientists use principles of Chemistry, Engineering and Industrial Hygiene in solving cases. Important skills for inves-tigators will be shared, including pho-tography, measurement, evidence pres-ervation, rules of thumb, how to decide what tests (destructive, non-destructive) and evaluations are necessary and suf-ficient to reach a valid assessment.

Keynote LECTURESThursday, October 13th, Keynote Lecture Building Blocks of Ergonomic Enforcement; Success, Failure, and Granite from Utah - Brett Besser, CPE, CIH, MSPH; Senior IH/Ergonomist with the US Department of Labor/OSHAEvery year musculoskeletal injuries rank near the top of OSHA recordables. The Agency has struggled with enforcing ergonomics since the Salt Lake Technical Center’s Health Response Team wrote the first citation in 1978. Early multimil-lion dollar successes where followed by frustrating defeats. Standards come and standards go, interest in the science waxes and wanes, each administration pulls the response either right or left. Through all this OSHA has continued to move forward admittedly glacially at times. But now the pieces are in place to effectively address this issue.

Brett Besser is a Senior Scientist with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and a member of local AIHA section since 1982. He obtained his BS in Chemistry and Microbiology from Metropolitan State University in Denver and a MPH from the University of Utah. He obtained his CIH in 1989 and CPE in 2002. He has performed over 400 workplace evaluations since 1990, ranging from office environments to meatpacking facilities to warehousing operations and is a technical expert for OSHA’s regulatory activities in the field of ergonomics. He is a visiting instructor at the OSHA Train-ing Institute and has lectured regularly at the University of Utah. He has consulted with other government agencies and private industries over the last 25 years and has frequently presented at local, national, and international conferences.

Friday, October 14th, Ed P. Mayne Memorial Keynote Lecture Driving Real Change in Human Performance - Vince “Bluto” Saporito, Check-6, Inc.This high-energy presentation, filled with entertaining video clips, shares with the conference attendees proven best prac-tices from aircraft carrier operations, airline aviation, and space operations. The entertaining, interactive, and insightful presentation identifies how tragic incidents within these industries kick-started their performance/safety initiatives into a journey towards sustaining an environment of continuous improvement.

• Working in high consequence industries requires the safest environment possible. Identifiable solutions generated from proven best practices can dramatically accelerate any industry toward that objective, while simultaneously en-hancing productivity and operational excellence.

• When best practices are applied from US Navy carrier based aviation you are able to manage risk, minimize human error, develop leadership, accountability, and operate at such a high level, the solution will be of significant value to everyone in any industry.

• An immediate culture change can be achieved while improving leadership development, operational processes and team behaviors.

Vince “Bluto” Saporito is the Director for Global Business Development – Mining. Bluto’s experience stems from his 24 year service flying fighter jets for the U.S. Navy and experience as a military diplomat. As a pilot, he repeatedly served as a flight instructor, including a tour as a TOPGUN instructor in Fallon, NV. Throughout his career, he flew all models of the F-14 Tomcat and F/A-18 Hornet, accumulating over 2900 flight hours, 449 aircraft carrier landings and 45 combat missions. Due to his extensive experience in South America, “Bluto” was later selected to be the Naval Attaché at the U.S. Embassy in Santiago, Chile, where he and his family lived for four years. In recognition of his distinguished service, he has received the Legion of Merit, the Chilean Navy Naval Order of Merit (Category of Knight), and multiple combat “V” awards for valor in combat. His article Taking the Mining Industry to a Higher Level of Excellence and Validating the Need for a Checklist Culture in Mining have been published in multiple mining magazines. An Aerospace Engineer from Texas A&M University by education, “Bluto” has demonstrated a track record of affecting culture changes in high reliability organizations resulting in dramatic performance and safety improvements.
