Each year, Your Alberta Construction Safety Association (ACSA) brings together construction health and safety leaders to explore emerging trends and industry opportunities. The 2022 ACSA Conference will be held virtually, March 14 to 18.
This year, the theme is Healthy Lives, Safe Workplaces. Our vision is Lives Lived Safely—emphasizing the importance that everyone returns home to their families, homes and communities each day. We will explore health and safety from all angles—physical, mental and social—and give attendees tools to attain a safety mindset.
“Safety is in all aspects of life—where we work, live and play,” says Tammy Hawkins, ACSA Chief Operating Officer. “The 2022 ACSA Conference will focus on the health and safety of workers and the bottom-line benefits to helping them achieve full, healthy lives.”
Using the Pheedloop platform, the 2022 ACSA Conference will feature more than 10 live web presentations, real-time virtual networking, gamification and on-demand access to recorded web presentations.
A major highlight will be the opening keynote presentation by Linda Edgecombe, a best-selling author and motivational speaker, on Monday, March 14. Attendees will kick off their journey by learning how to relax and recognize change in their lives. Edgecombe will teach us how to find meaning in what works and let go of what does not work.
Shawn Kanungo, the inspiring disruption strategist, will end the conference with a high note on Friday, March 18. He will bring a unique viewpoint that will help individuals and teams build a mindset and muscle relating to disruption—focusing on how to make bold decisions to reinvent themselves and take charge of their own destiny.
Over the course of its five days, the 2022 ACSA Conference will feature industry-specific topics for both organizational and personal growth. The program includes occupational health and safety legislation updates, legal employment updates, technological advancements, current affairs, internal responsibility system (IRS) overview, disruption strategy and prevention, screening and intervening for substance use in the construction industry.
ACSA is also hosting two high-powered panels. The first will focus on the future of Alberta jobs and workplaces while the second panel will spotlight new technologies set to transform the construction industry.
With a diverse range of programming, participants can explore different areas for growth as well as re-imagine aspects of their lives.

The opportunity to network with industry leaders and increase their awareness of workplace health and safety is a stepping-stone to their growth.
