This past March, delegates made the historic decision to transition the House of Delegates to an Advisory Group, amending the ASSP bylaws to effect the change. ASSP has updated all governing documents to reflect this change, including the model chapter bylaws. Per the chapter affiliation agreement, chapters are required to maintain bylaws that are aligned with the model chapter bylaws. Chapter members will need to vote to amend our chapter’s bylaws to bring them into alignment with these updates. Please watch your inbox for an email to review the redline copy of our chapter’s bylaws with the proposed amendments and an e-ballot to vote on these changes.
West Michigan ASSP along with our the other two Michigan chapters renewed our alliance with MIOSHA. The ceremonial signature event took place on Tuesday, 23rd, 2022 at the Great Lakes Safety Training Center in Midland, MI. The purpose of the alliance is to “…recognize the value of establishing a collaborative relationship to foster safer and more healthful Michigan workplaces.”

The West Michigan ASSP Chapter receives Platinum Level Recognition Award for 2021-22, second year back-to-back! Chapter President Rich DeLeau said, “We could not have achieved Platinum Level recognition had it not been for everyone working together; month in and month out to providing outstanding service. I want to thank each and every one for your valuable contributions. Riding on this momentum, I wish everyone much success this program year.”
