Safety isn’t just a checklist—it’s a commitment to people. At the 2026 Safety & Health Conference, January 12–15 in Austin, Texas, industry leaders will explore how organizations can elevate safety from a regulatory requirement to a core value. Among the highlights is a keynote session by renowned safety and risk management expert David Ward: “The Humanistic Side of Safety.”
This session examines the human impact behind workplace incidents, reminding us that every statistic represents a life forever changed. Ward will challenge leaders to create accountability at every level and demonstrate that prioritizing safety is an investment in people—not just policy.
A Voice Shaped by Experience
David Ward’s perspective comes from more than four decades of hands-on safety leadership. His career spans the U.S. Air Force, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, OSHA, and private industry, where he investigated whistleblower protections and guided safety programs across sectors from aerospace to agriculture.
Ward is also an Amazon #1 bestselling author and a respected speaker whose work underscores a simple truth: safety is not optional—it’s essential. His insights will inspire attendees to rethink how safety is embedded in organizational culture.
