Our History

Introduction

Incorporated in 1961 by a group of individuals passionate about the safety and health of all Manitobans, over the last 60 years, the association has become a focal point for the exchange of health and safety information.

The vision of our founders was to devise a ways and means of improving incident prevention methods and education; to function as a body from which incident prevention information may be disseminated; and in cooperation with other like-minded organizations in incident prevention and occupational health and safety, work together to educate leaders in the safety and health community.

Commerce, industry, government and individuals in the Province of Manitoba, who are interested in health and safety are members of IPAM.

Some of the ways that IPAM provides important safety and health information include:

• Monthly meetings with informative guest speakers featuring topics of general and special interest
• Networking opportunities every month
• Annual Safety Saves Conference
