This invitation only event will welcome ASSP volunteer leaders, past presidents and Fellows, and 2022 award recipients for the first ever ASSP Leader and Awards reception.
The event says invitation-only. Who will be invited? The following groups of leaders and honorees have been invited to attend this celebration (all are 2021-22 recognition and terms, unless otherwise noted):
If you are part of one the leader or honoree groups listed above and you have not received an invitation or you need it re-sent, you can contact customerservice@assp.org.
Can I bring a guest?Due to limited capacity in the venue, this invitation does not include guests. We will make a few exceptions for the 2022 Fellows, Safety Professional of the Year and Outstanding Educator of the Year.
Additional guests may be accommodated, on request, depending on event registration numbers. We are grateful for the support leaders and honorees have received from family and loved ones. Our goal is to accommodate as many guests as the space allows once we’re sure of the number of ASSP leaders who will be able to attend. Additional guest requests can be made by e-mailing customerservice@assp.org. Your guest request will be confirmed after the May 20 RSVP deadline.
I received an invite but I’m not able to attend. Can I give my invite to someone else?Invitations for this event are not transferable.
What’s the attire for the event?We ask that attendees to wear business casual attire. Our goal is to provide attendees a great opportunity to meet and network with other ASSP leaders and contributors in a comfortable setting.
How will this year’s recipients be recognized?We are working to finalize all the details, but we will provide recognition in various ways. For example, there will be special signage and a celebratory video playing on screens in the venue. After the reception, the signage display will be moved to a centralized location accessible to all Safety 2022 attendees. The video will also be posted on the ASSP website.
Volunteer leaders who hold the following positions will receive a non-transferable registration code for a complimentary registration to the in-person and virtual Safety 2022:
Under our current operating budget, we are reimbursing travel expenses for only a limited number of volunteer leaders who attend Safety 2022 in Chicago. For example, we plan to cover travel expenses for members of the Board of Directors, who will have official on-site roles during the conference. ASSP staff members will be on site to fulfill key roles.
No ASSP business meetings (including board, committee and council meetings) will be held at Safety 2022.
We will not host community receptions as part of the in-person conference. However, member communities may host virtual receptions and/or in-person informal gatherings. We will post information on these activities on the Safety 2022 networking page as details are finalized.
In addition, all attendees are invited to attend the Monday night Summer in the City event, which will be a ticketed event held outdoors on the McCormick Place campus.
We understand that many of our members and groups of members from our various communities are excited to reconnect with colleagues while in Chicago. If you elect to self-organize as individual members, please use your best judgment and review the latest CDC guidelines.
ASSP leaders are responsible for upholding the ASSP Code of Conduct and are accountable to all event rules and regulations.
