SSHR offers unmatched access to over 400 professionals shaping policy, implementing safety programs, and managing risk across the industry.
Scheduled for April 1–3, 2026, at the Omni Oklahoma City, this year’s conference features four focused educational tracks: safety, security, HR, and claims/loss prevention. Attendees will engage with industry leaders, join interactive sessions, gain practical takeaways, and enjoy new networking events like casino night and an evening at TopGolf.
