If you’re an OHS Student, check this out!! I found out about this opportunity at around the same time last year. I wrote an essay about why I decided to pursue a career in Safety. I did not expect to hear anything back, but I was graciously selected for this scholarship. Beyond the $3000, the learning resources are super useful. The AASP provides you with access to a ton of courses. When I graduated in May, I felt a lot more confident and had a bunch of great training to my name. Carol, The AASP, SafetyVantage and everyone involved with the process were incredible. When I visited the AASP conference last fall, I was super impressed by the warm welcome I received. (They let you keep the giant cheque too) If you decide to apply - write from the heart, and write based on your personal experience! Be yourself. When the AASP announces the winner this fall, I hope to see one of your names as the recipient!

Provinces like Ontario and Alberta have already incorporated specific clauses in their Occupational Health and Safety Acts, emphasizing an employer’s duty to prevent mental harm alongside physical injuries. 🧠 This week is #MentalHealthWeek and the theme this year is #CompassionConnects ❤️ Explore the importance of workplace mental health in our latest blog: https://hubs.la/Q02w6hCd0 #mentalhealth #workplacesafety #psychologicalsafety #ohs
