Nearly 1000 safety leaders are gathering at the Civic Center for the 40th annual North Dakota Safety and Health Conference.
170 booths are on exhibit and 45 speakers will be sharing safety training techniques.
Executive Director of the North Dakota Safety Council, Chuck Clairmont says it's a great way for people to meet and learn from others in their profession.
"Really what it is, is it's an opportunity for people in the safety community to get together and see potential new safety training techniques, new ideas in terms of helping their company on their won journey to safety excellence, so bringing that many people together within leadership and in the beginning stages of their careers it really gives people the chance to get together and learn from each other or network," Chuck Clairmont said.
The Conference runs through Thursday.
