Developing and maintaining a safe workplace is no easy task. That is why local companies and the community make a combined effort to provide employers with the tools necessary to develop a safe working environment for all employees. One way to accomplish this task is through membership in the Northeast Ohio Safety Council.
The Northeast Ohio Safety Council (NEOSC) is powered by the Council of Smaller Enterprises (COSE) and is open to all inquiring participants (COSE members and non-members). All Northeast Ohio Safety Council meetings will be held on the second Wednesday of every month at Holiday Inn Cleveland South in Independence, Ohio (6001 Rockside Rd. Independence, OH 44131) from 8:30 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.
Each monthly meeting will include a discussion on pertinent safety issues and will also serve as a networking opportunity for participants.
The Northeast Ohio Safety Council understands the importance of safety within the workplace and is dedicated to ensure that each meeting serves as a tool to educate members on the various ways to create and maintain a safe working environment.
It is our belief that education and knowledge are the primary tools on the forefront of accident and injury prevention. It is our hope that you will join us in our endeavor to promote and ensure safety within the workplace.
Annual membership dues for the Northeast Ohio Safety Council are the same for all participants regardless of the number of employees.
