Summer 2005
ISHM Board Meeting Highlights
The Board of Directors met April 15, 2005 in Chicago, IL. Highlights of the meeting include:
1. Introduction of Betty Hintch, editor of Compliance Magazine. Betty is a public member of the Board of Directors and looks forward to working with ISHM and expects mutual benefit from this relationship.
2. Upcoming Board of Director Election. There are three Board positions to be filled this year. One position is open as a result of the resignation of Cynthia Duffield; the two other positions are occupied by Tom Slavin and Greg Green. Incumbents may be candidates for a maximum of two terms.
3. Bylaws. The Board approved a bylaw change that makes the Managing Director a non-voting member of the Board.
4. Proctor Handbook. Dr. Sorine reported that the Proctor handbook is ready to be printed.
5. Budget. The Board approved the budget for 2005. We have estimated income of $55,000 and expenses of $67,000. The deficit is mainly due to expenditures in promoting the CSHM and accreditation with NCCA.
6. Contracts. The management services contract with Phillip Mueller and Associates was renewed through April 2006 with a monthly fee increase from $2000.00 to $2,500.00 starting in July 2005.
7. Next Meeting. The Board scheduled their next meeting in Orlando, Fl. during the National Safety Congress.
