Description

Your facility is a construction site – do you see red flags? The discussion will focus on what to look for and red flag resolutions.

Prior to the now cancelled 2020 IPAC Canada conference, members were asked to submit a description of the IPAC red flags they have encountered on a construction site and tell us how those issues were resolved. These submissions will be used to formulate content.

One submitter who has submitted a Red Flag story, who is a member of IPAC Canada, will win a complimentary registration to IPAC Canada’s 2021 Conference (Winnipeg, May 2-5, 2021).
