    ​Creating a Safety Culture in the Workplace: Build & Beyond Panel Discussion

    In industries like transportation and energy, where regulations are extensive and strict, creating and maintaining a culture of safety is not just a priority—it’s a necessity. With regulations governing nearly every aspect of operations, from environmental standards to worker protections, businesses in these sectors face constant challenges. However, safety remains at the heart of success, driving operational excellence, employee well-being, and business sustainability.

    On Nov 7, in Dickinson, engage with our morning panel discussion, "Creating a Safety Culture Amidst Regulation," will bring together top experts who navigate the intersection of safety and regulation every day.

    Moderated by Art Thompson, Director of North Dakota Workforce Safety & Insurance (WSI), this session brings together leaders from across sectors, including:

    • Jason Conley, CSP, Manager of Health and Safety at Apex Clean Energy, who has over 18 years of safety experience, spanning from oil and gas to renewable energy projects.
    • Max Milne, Manager of Safety and Health at ONEOK, who manages safety programs in the Bakken, one of the most challenging environments for energy operations.
    • Ben Liden, Director of Safety and Operational Development at Northern Plains Rail Companies, who will offer insights from the transportation sector.

    Each of these industries operates under layers of federal, state, and local regulations. Panelists will share how they manage compliance while maintaining a proactive approach to safety. This session is perfect for anyone in the energy, transportation, or infrastructure industries—or any organization looking to strengthen their safety practices.
