President's Message

I cannot express what an extreme honor and privilege it is to have been elected President of the Greater Baton Rouge Chapter. It is very flattering, yet humbling, to have such outstanding safety professionals that comprise our chapter to approve of my nomination.

Your executive board is committed to maintaining the quality of leadership, direction, and professionalism established by those before me, as well as to help bring more recognition and appreciation to the Greater Baton Rouge chapter. The more Baton Rouge area businesses know about us, the more we as members will benefit.

In addition, I would like to see GBRASSE become more of a resource to further our member's careers through mentoring new safety professionals and fostering continuing education through our technical membership meetings.

We will continue to work on successful community outreach programs like our high school adoption program. We are also working with local officials on legislation that will offer safer working conditions for our state's governmental employees. This is proving to be a monumental undertaking that involves the work of may volunteers and outside resources.

This is truly an outstanding chapter. I am proud to be a member and even more proud to be its President.

Yours in Safety,

Lance Roux, CSP
President
Greater Baton Rouge Chapter ASSE
