The Board of Directors recently affirmed the Society's diversity policy (https://assp.us/SOG_2-8) and we also approved the following statement to guide the process for nominating board candidates that we expect will cascade across our organization over time:ASSP believes in diversity and values the benefits diversity brings to our activities at all levels, including the board of directors.Having leaders who reflect diversity in gender, race and ethnicity, and who have different life experiences and cultural backgrounds contributes to more balanced board deliberations and better decision-making. Creating an inclusive culture that embraces difference also best positions ASSP to address evolving member needs and advance the OSH profession.To support this commitment, we require the consideration of diverse candidates in administering our board election process.
