Welcome to the Wyoming Safety and Workforce Summit. The Summit is a new collaboration that streamlines several safety conferences that were held in Wyoming and the annual Summit on Workforce Solutions into one event. The effort behind this gathering speaks to what Wyoming is working toward together: safety as a way of life and the strengthening of Wyoming's workforce.

Over the next two days, you will have the opportunity to hear from safety and workforce development experts from across the country. You will hear important discussions regarding education, work ethic, customer service, health care, safety strategies and much more.

It is our hope that you will create new connections, exchange ideas and find new ways to do business that not only keeps Wyoming's workforce safe and healthy, but also grows the reach of your business.

A strong safety culture and an innovative workforce go hand-in-hand in empowering our Wyoming business owners, their employees and our state's economic vitality.
