Conference Recommendations

The second day of the conference four Breakout sessions were held to take advantage of the collective wisdom of the conference participants to enumerate recommendations for eliminating health and safety disparities at work. Each group was given the assignment to come up with strategies to eliminate workplace health and safety disparities focusing both on what government could do but also what other entities, such as non-government organizations, could contribute. Each of the breakout groups reported back to all attendees at the beginning of the Environmental Justice Workshop in the afternoon. These recommendations were combined into this comprehensive document.
