This magazine is going electronic!
We need your email address.
We'll soon shift to email-only distribution of Infrastructure Health and Safety Magazine. Doing so will reduce administrative costs so we can reinvest in more frontline service for our clients. There are other advantages too, because you'll get your news sooner, and articles will have linked references to more information.
You can't get it, however, if we don't have your email address. In the coming months, you'll be telephoned and asked to provide your email address for IHSA publications and updates. We encourage you to provide your contact information at that time.
Make sure you continue to get authoritative, trusted information on health and safety in your industry.
If you do not have the Adobe Acrobat Reader to access the pdf documents, you can download a free version from the Adobe website.
