The 2008 National Environmental Health and Safety Conference (Indianapolis; March 12–14, 2008) is taking health, safety and human resource issues to the green level.

The conference—geared to the health and safety decision makers within the graphic communications industries—is shifting more of its focus to ways printing companies of all platforms can operate and be profitable using a sustainable business model.

Among the corporate sustainability highlights:

• Brian Shuttleworth with the H.J. Heinz Co. will reveal the global food brand's efforts to be environmentally and socially responsible.

• Mark DiVito with Reed Business Information, an international publishing organization, will offer a workplace case study, detailing how sustainability impacts decision making and attitudes at printing and packaging companies.

Additionally, the NEHS Conference will hold roundtable discussions allowing attendees to talk one-on-one with industry peers and experts about their specific workplace situations, and discuss possible solutions.
