BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

SAN DIEGOThe National Safety Council held its 94th Annual Congress & Expo Nov. 3-10 in San Diego. The event included 831 exhibitors and about 15,000 total attendees.

With the Hispanic component of the U.S. workforce expected to nearly triple by 2050, the NSC at this year's gathering launched an inaugural Hispanic Safety and Health Congress. It included similar sessions that emphasized specific issues relating to the oversight of Hispanic workers with some information translated simultaneously in English and Spanish.
