Turnkey Safety Solutions has announced the lineup for its exciting keynotes and panels for the Northeast Wireless Safety Summit (NEWSS). Many of the speakers are safety professionals, insurance experts and other prominent members of the wireless community interested in promoting the importance of safety, training and the most modern techniques for protecting workers from the inherent hazards.

The event is to be held at the Crown Plaza in Fairfield, N.J. on Oct. 18, 2017. Registration can be accessed here.

The safety summit is an event designed to bring awareness about the issue of safe work practices to the wireless telecom industry.

Over the past three years, NEWSS has grown and is now powered by Turnkey Safety Solutions (TSS), a safety training and consulting firm. It is expected to attract a record number of attendees at its fourth event, with a new venue and scope directed at executive level and field employees from around the region.
