Jennifer McNelly has been named executive director of the American Society of Safety Professionals.
Ms. McNelly will start at the helm of the Park Ridge, Illinois-based organization, which has more than 37,000 members, on Aug. 16, according to a statement released Monday.
Ms. McNelly most recently served as president of 180 Skills L.L.C., an Indianapolis-based online career and technical education company, and was previously president and executive director of the Washington, D.C.-Dbased Manufacturing Institute, the 501(c)(3) affiliate of the National Association of Manufacturers.
“Sound safety practices are socially responsible and good business, leading to increased productivity, a better reputation and higher employee satisfaction,” she said in a statement.
She replaces Dennis Hudson, who is retiring after 11 years with the society, two years as the executive director.
