Luncheon Keynote Speaker
Jeremy Shorthouse
National Environmental, Health & Safety Manager Vincor Canada – A Constellation Company
Raise a Glass to Safety
Jeremy Shorthouse was recently named 2010 Safety Leader of the Year in Canada. Three years ago, Vincor’s health and safety statistics were 500% higher than its U.S. parent company. Using humour and several anecdotal examples, Jeremy will tell the remarkable success story of taking a vertically integrated business, which includes viticulture (farming), production facilities, warehousing, hospitality, food service and retail, from being a “safety follower” to a “safety leader” in the wine industry.
