Collaborations and partnerships are one of the building blocks of the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP). 

30th July, we achieved a milestone in this, as we paid courtesy visits to ARCO Group Nigeria  and JEVANT SPENCER INTERNATIONAL COMPANY in the City of Port-Harcourt, Nigeria. 

These moments of connection reminds us that beyond the campaigns and initiatives, there are real people working in the background to make a difference. 

Grateful for partnerships that goes beyond the surface and a big thank you to Jevant Spencer International Company Limited and ARCO Group Nigeria for the warm welcome. Looking forward to more meaningful engagement.
