Wednesday Technical Sessions

wednesday morning sessions (am) wednesday afternoon sessions (pm)AM-A: 8:00 am - 12:00 pm Reasonable Accommodation: A Powerful Disability and Absence Management ToolRoy Matheson, ADAC - President Reasonable Accommodation, LLC - Keene, NHThis course begins with an orderly, issue-by-issue introduction to the practice of reasonable accommodation (RA). A checklist of practical, compliance-focused practices which an absence or disability manager can include in her daily routine will be outlined. The narrative behind recent federal court settlements will be used as a quick illustration of the legal consequences of non-compliance. Participants are encouraged to bring questions and quandaries including, “What is the role of reasonable accommodation in a workers’ compensation case?” “If a medical restriction does not connect to a physical demand of the job, do I have to accommodation the individual?” “What do I do when a physician demands a specific accommodation solution such as an expensive chair or sit-stand station?” “Does my inability to read people’s minds turn into a non-compliance charge for failure to accommodate?”

AM-B: 8:00 am - 12:00 pmSevere Incident PreventionDr. D.J. Moran - Founder & CEOPickslyde Consulting - Joliet, ILSevere Incident Prevention provides critical training designed to reduce catastrophic events. Fatalities, tragic illnesses & injuries, and disastrous incidents continue to occur at an unchanged rate over the decades despite improvements in processes and safety interventions. In other words, while your company may be observing a decline in worker injuries, the company may still be at significant risk for a larger disaster. Severe Incident Prevention training aims to diminish that risk. Responsible companies are committed to preventing incidents, whether large or small. First and foremost, the welfare of the workers is critically important, and no amount of PPE or conventional training is likely to protect the worker from a severe incident. In addition, severe incidents are exceptionally costly to the company’s finances because of the significant destruction of resources, lawsuits, and rebuilding. Even further, a catastrophic loss can severely impact a company’s reputation and standing in the community. In the fast-paced, dynamic, and technological workplace of the 21st century, Severe Incident Prevention skills are should be considered fundamental to a company’s processes.

AM-C: 8:00 am - 12:00 pmWorkplace Security ConsiderationsPhilip Pitzen, Ed.D - Protective Security AdvisorU.S. Dept of Homeland Security - Des Moines, IASecurity Considerations for the Workplace covers topics that include active shooter, suspicious packages, white powder incidents and bomb threats. Special attention is placed on making the workplace safer, as well as personnel considerations, including personal security, how to construct a plan for your work site, physical security considerations related to the physical plant, etc.

PM-A: 1:00 - 5:00 pmThe Missing Link in Risk AssessmentGary A. Higbee, EMBA CSP - President & CEO Higbee & Associates, Inc. - Johnston, IADanny W. Smith - Senior Safety Consultant SafeStart - Columbiana, ALWhen discussing risk assessments with safety professionals, there are often several themes to the conversations. Everyone agrees this is a helpful tool for prioritization of their time and safety resources. Equally, most will initially say these assessments are, in theory, “easy”. Often, the conversation then turns to the limitations of the common risk assessment matrixes. The potential severity of an incident is usually fairly easy to determine based upon the amount and/or type of hazardous energy in the environment. The likelihood or probability of an exposure is often a bit more difficult. If the matrix concept is expanded to include common human factors – those behaviors which we all display from time to time – then it may be a much more effective tool.

PM-B: 1:00 - 5:00 pmGeneral Environmental PrimerEugene Taylor - Principal ConsultantTrinity Consultants, Inc. - West Burlington, IAWhen it comes to things environmental, nobody can know everything, so it is important to know what you don’t know. This session will cover the basics of environmental regulations, best practices for environmental compliance, permitting, reporting, and plans, and effective environmental management practices.

PM-C: 1:00 - 5:00 pmMedia & Crisis CommunicationLauri Freking - Senior TrainerWixted & Company - West Des Moines, IAWhen the unthinkable happens and a reporter is suddenly on scene wanting an interview or shooting video with a smart phone, anxiety and panic can take over. Learn how to successfully interact with today’s reporters, where you have control in the process, what to say and what not to say to the media. Where are the risks and how can you manage them through effective and transparent communication? How does social media change the media communication landscape? The session will discuss the importance of having a plan and a media policy in place to guide your organization before a crisis strikes. A four-part message model for crisis will be taught so that your organization not only does the right thing but also manages its brand and reputation in the face of a crisis.

7:15 am Registration and Exhibits Open8:00 am Opening and Annual Meeting

8:15 - 9:15 am General Session: “Get it On! What It means to Lead the Way”

Keni Thomas - Professional Speaker, Ranger in the “Blackhawk Down” Mission, and Award-Winning Country Music Artist - Nashville, TN

The Ranger motto is Rangers Lead the Way. Leadership is the core of every skill developed as a Ranger. But, leadership is not a position but rather an example set by every Ranger. Whether approaching the beaches of Normandy or the mountain ranges of Afghanistan, the world is made better when leadership is owned by each member of the team.

In the pace of life, it is easy to lose perspective on our value to others. Make no mistake: Your presence is crucial! The individuals to the left and right are directly affected by the result of your actions. Each team is a puzzle with invaluable pieces. When you raise your hand or assume a task, you have put on the “uniform”. Duty follows that responsibility. Good is never enough because better is expected.

Keni Thomas helps attendees see themselves in the light of extraordinary. It is a choice made by many each day to impact those around them. It is the ultimate definition of LEADING THE WAY...

In the summer of 1993 Staff Sergeant Keni Thomas was deployed to Mogadishu Somalia with the 3rd Ranger Battalion as part of an elite special operations package called Task Force Ranger. Their mission was to find and capture a criminal warlord named Mohammed Farrah Aidid. On the 3rd of October, Keni and his fellow rangers distinguished themselves in an eighteen hour fire-fight that would later be recounted in the highly successful book and movie “Blackhawk Down”. Nineteen Americans gave their lives and 78 were wounded in the worst urban combat seen by US troops since WWII.

A powerful speaker, Keni captivates audiences from beginning to end as he tells the incredible story of extraordinary individuals and how they fought to bring each other home. Drawing from his experiences on the battlefield, Keni inspires people to achieve greatness by stressing the importance of outstanding leadership at every level, even if the only person you are leading is yourself. His message of “Train as you fight - Fight as you train and Lead By Example” epitomizes the Ranger motto “Rangers Lead the Way!”

After Mogadishu, Staff Sergeant Thomas volunteered for one more enlistment in the Army. He became an assistant team leader for a six-man ranger reconnaissance team. He earned his master parachutist rating with over 400 military free fall jumps. He completed the Special Forces Combat Diver course, became an Advanced EMT and was one of ten Americans to complete the Belgium Commando Course.

Keni got out of the Army to pursue his music career and now works full-time as an award winning country music recording artist and songwriter in Nashville. He and his band Cornbread were featured in the movie “Sweet Home Alabama” and his music can be heard on country stations nationwide. Keni continues to serve our troops with regular tours to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Keni Thomas is a graduate of the University of Florida, and the recipient of the bronze star for valor.

1A: DEADLY SILENCEChuck GoodmanArea Vice President & Loss Control RepresentativeArthur J. Gallagher & Co. - West Des Moines, IAThis presentation will explore three interrelated facts: Most accidents occur because of unsafe acts rather than unsafe conditions; the only persons that really know what’s going on are the employees that do the work; and, for many reasons, the employees don’t speak up. Thus, their silence can be deadly. This session identifies reasons for silence and explores ways to encourage communication.

1B: INFLUENCING ORGANIZATIONAL RISKJoshua Jacobsen - Construction Loss Control ConsultantHolmes Murphy & Associates - Des Moines, IAThis presentation explains various techniques and programs to influence an organization’s culture. It will present a construction study that is a culmination of research over a 20-year period as well as a decade-long complex thought problem broken down into a focused solution. We will discuss strategies and the top five safety program initiatives the construction industry just can’t ignore. They’ll not only drive down your failures and incidents, but they’ll also make your organization more profitable and desirable … and quite frankly, an organization people want to work with!

1C: FUNDAMENTALS OF HUMAN PERFORMANCERon Pryor - OwnerPryor Experience, LLC - Bettendorf, IAThis session will cover the fundamental science behind why and how people make errors which sometimes result in catastrophic events. Ron will provide insights into the predictability of error rates and how to recognize situations which significantly increase the likelihood of errors occurring.

1F: WORKERS’ COMP TRACKPOST-OFFER TESTING UNDER ADA TITLE IRoy Matheson, ADAC - President Reasonable Accommodation, LLC - Keene, NHEmployers across the United State use post-offer employment testing (POET) and functional capacity evaluation (FCE) as hiring, disability, and absence management tools. These services feed directly into the ADA Title I area of reasonable accommodation. This course begins with a clear definition of the rules underlying the ADA’s “medical examination and inquiry” tenets before introducing an explanation of when coverage under ADA Title I is triggered. Participants are encouraged to bring questions and quandaries including “When is it too late to have an individual participate in a POET?” “How selective can I be when referring for a POET?” “What information can a physician or test vendor share with me after testing?” “Can I use a POET or FCE test protocol for a range of jobs?” “Do I have liability if an outside physician refuses employment to a future or current employee?” “How and when can I use an FCE to return an individual to work?”

Attendees will understand the basics of the ABCD’s of fall arrest. This includes Anchor Points, Body wear, Connectors, and Descent and Rescue.

4A: DEVELOPING & IMPLEMENTING A WORKPLACE VIOLENCE PROGRAMJerry Loghry - Loss Prevention Information ManagerEMC Insurance Companies - Des Moines, IAThis interactive session will cover the development of the core elements of a workplace violence prevention program. We will review the key components and common hurdles when implementing a new program or updating an existing program and will review the most common failure points of many workplace violence prevention programs.

4B: PARADIGM SHIFT IN OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY & HEALTHJohn “Grizzy” Grzywacz - Professor EmeritusJohn “Grizzy” Grzywacz, Inc. - Schaumburg, ILThe Occupational Safety and Health profession is being turned on its head! For decades OSHA standards were historically characterized as minimum standards while consensus standards were typically characterized as best practices. That is no longer true! There is a paradigm shift occurring in Occupational Safety and Health. Where did this all come from? Who is responsible for this and what’s driving it? Employers who are following some recent consensus standards could in fact be establishing “willful violations” of OSHA Standards. Cutting edge regulatory insights into these new developments in Safety and Health with specific facts and background from recent consensus standards and why OSHA standards are becoming the new benchmark over these consensus standards.

4C: CIVIL vs CRIMINAL LIABILITY FOR SAFETY SUPERVISORSGary Higbee - President & CEOHigbee & Associates, Inc. - Johnston, IAHave you ever heard about a Safety Supervisor/Manager or Director being personally sued after an employee injury? It doesn’t happen often but it does happen. Normally Worker Compensation laws prevent this type of liability. In this session, we will talk about what activities might eliminate the protection afforded by the Limited Liability provisions of worker’s compensation and/or move the case into either the civil or criminal court system. There are big differences in these two court systems and while you never want to end up in either one is much worse than the other. Learn what not to do and more importantly what to do to avoid any potential liability. Remember “Today is the First Day of the Rest of your Career” so if you hear something that bothers you the solution is simple – Stop doing it.

4D: USING ANSI-Z-15 TO BETTER FLEET MANAGEMENTBrian Hammer - Senior Transportation ConsultantNationwide Insurance - Des Moines, IAThis session will discuss using consensus standard ANSI/ASSE Z 15.1-2012 to better manage your fleet.• The session will cover the history of the standard• What the standard covers• How the standard can be used to develop an outline for fleet manuals• Using the standard to help reduce accidents• How the standard can help you in your hiring and employee retention

4E: ENVIRONMENTAL TRACKWHAT SHOULD YOU DO IF THERE IS A CHEMICAL SPILL?Eugene Taylor - Principle ConsultantTrinity Consultants, Inc. - West Burlington, IASpills of oils and chemicals can trigger several reporting requirements, and the spills need to be remediated correctly and the recovered waste properly disposed. Missteps during these processes can lead to unnecessary costs, fines, and environmental damage. This session will cover how to manage the consequences of a spill.

4F: WORKERS’ COMP TRACKERGONOMICS - THE COSTS OF INJURIESDrew Bossen - Executive Vice PresidentAtlas Injury Prevention Solutions - Iowa City, IAResearch has demonstrated that an effective ergonomics / injury prevent program will have a positive impact on reducing the risks and associated costs of workplace injuries. A systematic approach to injury prevention is key to understanding and quantifying the true costs of injuries to an organization. This presentation will review a variety of key measures on injury costs, common in the literature. More importantly, it will define the broader financial impact to the organization; specifically, the cost of investing in ergonomic and injury prevention programming versus doing nothing. We will share a long-standing data-set of one of the nation’s largest transportation and warehousing organization, outlining the quarterly and year over year Return on Investment the organization has realized by investing in targeted injury prevention strategies.

8:00 - 9:00 am General Session: “Optimizing Leadership Commitment”

Dr. D.J. Moran

Founder & CEO - Pickslyde ConsultingJoliet, IL

You can be a safety leader. Leadership is not measured by status in an organization, but influence on other people. Having solid impact on other people’s behavior requires training and skillfulness, and it also requires commitment. Commitment is a critical contributor to your ability to lead a workplace safety program, yet commitment itself is rarely

addressed at a personal level. To make a personal commitment means “to act in the direction of what is most important even in the presence of obstacles.” This session will outline how to optimize your leadership skills with The Mindful Action Plan (The MAP), which is an evidence-based approach supported by the same science that created behavior-based safety.

Dr. D.J. is the founder of Pickslyde Consulting and has taken evidence-based training to corporations worldwide. He has presented well-over 100 behavioral science workshops on six continents, and specializes in helping organizations improve their productivity, leadership, and safety commitments. He wrote Building Safety Commitment, and his most recent publication is on reducing serious incidents and catastrophes. He has been a behavior-based safety consultant for many companies – large and small - in Iowa and Illinois.

5B: HOME & COMMUNITY SAFETY Ryan Veatch - Safety & Health ConsultantDuPont Pioneer - Johnston, IAWhat is most important in your organization, safety compliance or safety culture? Do employees fear safety enforcement or do they openly support each other to stay safe?

This interactive session will discuss the importance of growing safety culture, moving beyond workplace safety into community.

There is a science to preventing falls and this presentation aims to increase your awareness of slip, trip and fall hazards as well as illustrate proven prevention strategies.

See the high voltage special effects devices used in the vintage movies live onstage arcing, sparking and throwing spectacular electrical bolts just as they did on the set when originally filmed. Watch Grizzy give live demonstrations of electrical devices from the movies Frankenstein (1931), The Mask of Fu Manchu (1932), The Bride of Frankenstein (1935) and many more including Young Frankenstein (1974). A unique and extraordinary event steeped

in both electrical history as well as movie history in addition to the spectacular visual displays of high voltage arcs, sparks, and bolts of electricity demonstrated live onstage.

“Grizzy”, as he likes to be called has been recognized by OSHA’s National Office in Washington D.C. as both a National Electrical Code (NEC®) historian as well as “the best electrical safety trainer in the country!” Certainly at the very least Grizzy has been OSHA’s electrical safety “go-to guy” and has been instrumental in shaping and interpreting OSHA policy and regulations for several decades.

Grizzy has trained OSHA compliance officers, appeared as OSHA’s electrical expert, and guided literally hundreds and hundreds of electrical fatality investigations. Grizzy continues to train OSHA compliance officers and personnel coast to coast, as well as still providing investigative assistance to the Agency on fatality investigations and significant cases. His electrical expertise has not only shaped OSHA policy but also the OSHA Electrical Standard’s. Grizzy is currently a member of the ASTM F- 18 Committee which writes the “Electrical Protective Equipment for Workers” standards.In addition to being a professional speaker and nationally recognized seminar leader with over 40,000 hours of platform experience, Grizzy has numerous published works in video and print which have assisted safety professionals and helped workers for decades.
