Keynote Presentation – Futureproofing Workplace Safety: Evolving Beyond Traditional Approaches

Jon Liesmaki, Director of Environmental, Health, & Safety, Harmon Inc.

For too long, workplace safety has relied on outdated methods and disconnected systems—enough to stay compliant but not built for what’s ahead. As risks grow and expectations shift, those legacy approaches fall short.

This session explores how leading organizations can transform with EHS strategies—less reactive, more proactive.

Learn how to modernize your safety culture, streamline processes, and build a future-ready foundation that keeps your workforce protected and your business agile.

Jon Liesmaki, Director of EHS at Harmon Inc., gives you the blueprint on:

  1. Identify where your organization currently stands (more advanced or just beginning)
  2. Finding the right vendor to fit your needs
  3. Rolling out new tools and processes to your managers, front-line employees, and executives – including a “performance index” you can use to measure engagement and success at every levels
