5 Reasons to Attend Forum 2025

1. Intimate and interactive

An intimate event size, single-session stream, and networking opportunities allow you to dive deeper into topics, while connecting with like-minded health and safety stakeholders.
I liked being able to see and hear all presentations, rather than selecting from concurrent sessions. It was a good opportunity to expand the knowledge base and learn from other professionals in the industry.

2. Fresh content

From emerging technologies to climate change to the changing demographic landscape, the world of work is evolving. Learn about health and safety issues that we will all need to be ready for.
Very few conferences are worth the repeat appearance. So many of them look the same, have similar presentations, or rotate the players like it’s a circus tour. This event is on a different level from the usual crop…You’re in the rotation now.

3. Solutions-focused

Gain insight and expertise from our speakers, showcase of innovations and soapbox event, and learn about practical solutions and tools you can bring back to your organization.
I have to congratulate you on the variety of talks and the speakers. The more we share successful strategies, or even any strategies that we try to advance the safety culture, the more we all benefit.

4. Incredible value

Registration includes all sessions, networking events, refreshments, lunch, and discounted hotel rates (limited availability).
It’s very important to be motivated by big picture thinkers. Golden nuggets of truth and perspective came through and are applicable in my daily work life. To think outside of the box…is fantastic! I was there to challenge my brain, to think bigger - and I got exactly what I wanted (and needed). Great job!

5. Balanced perspectives

Perspectives from government, employers and labour – spanning all provinces and territories – will be represented.
I thought the event brought together all workplace parties for excellent discussion. I was particularly appreciative of the open and honest perspectives.
