The Great Plains Chapter of the American Society of Safety Professionals was chartered in 1958. Our purpose is to promote the advancement of the safety profession and safety professionals throughout our geographical area: the State of Nebraska; these counties in Iowa: Plymouth, Cherokee, Woodbury, Ida, Monona, Crawford, Harrison, Shelby, Pottawattamie, Cass, Mills, Montgomery, Fremont, and Page.
We understand networking, learning, and staying on top of the latest changes in our field is very important. If you are a current member, we appreciate your support. If you are not active, we welcome you to get involved. We would also like to extend an opportunity for those who are not members to join!
