Dear All,
I recently published an article about Peer-Led Safety Communities, which includes ACS, ABSA, and CSHEMA.
Rigoberto Hernandez, ACS President-Elect, provided the following quote:
“Chemical safety is the one advance that you rarely hear about because when all goes well, it doesn’t make the news. Nevertheless, chemical production and advances in chemistry have relied on a safety culture, where safety is everyone’s responsibility. Not
only does doing so reduce the risk of accidents, it also mitigates their consequences as everyone is prepared to respond. ACS offers many resources to support and foster a safety culture. I encourage you to engage with us through your ACS membership. Doing
so is at the heart of peer-led efforts advancing safety.”
Wishing you all the best as you navigate the ever-changing research safety landscape in the US.
Cheers,
Anthony Appleton
