    JACKSON, Tenn.—Carlisle Transportation Products will host the Association of Rubber Products Manufacturers annual Environmental, Health and Safety Summit July 25-26.

    The conference for manufacturing EHS professionals will take place at Carlisle's Jackson factory, and it includes a tour of the 500,000-sq.-ft. facility.

Stevens will provide advice on the workers' comp system and what measures employers can take to minimize their costs.

At CH3M Hill, he is responsible for development and implementation of the firm's "Target Zero" management system, which aims at reducing injuries, illnesses and adverse environmental impacts to zero.
