In the age of social media, instant communication and telecommuting, connection to a strong, live safety community has never been more important. Your membership in the ASSP Philadelphia Chapter is a tremendous resource that can help you filter through the noise and keep you in touch with what’s really important. Whether it is following us on our social media platforms (LinkedIn or Facebook), attending our monthly events, or becoming involved in a subcommittee or leadership role, you have the power to decide your level of engagement. Why look any further than this community of safety professionals - right here in your backyard - to support your professional and personal development!
I encourage each of our 500+ members to look at their schedules and find the time to become involved. I am excited to see what this chapter’s leadership will achieve as we continue to build off the success from last year’s team. Finally, as we start to make our plans and book out the calendar, we want to assure all of our members that the executive committee is dedicated to making your membership experience the best it can be!

The Philadelphia ASSP mentorship program is officially underway. We are looking to connect people early in their careers (<5 years of experience) with seasoned safety professionals.
For potential mentees, this is a great opportunity for you to connect with a mentor who can offer you insight, advice, opportunity – and help you navigate the next stage/s of your career.
For potential mentors, this is a great opportunity to give back, become a better leader, and refine your own skills and networks
We are continually matching new mentors and mentees – so make sure to sign up right now using the link below.
We are excited to see the mentorships and outcomes which evolve from this initiative and look forward to matching you!
