Event, Membership & Usage Policies

All attendees (including but not limited to speakers, registrants, substitutes, and volunteers) agree to adhere to the ISEA Event Policies outlined below. Any attendee observed to be in violation of an policy will be immediately asked to leave, and no refund will be provided. “Events” include all ISEA-sponsored meetings, including but not limited to conferences (e.g. Annual Meeting, Executive Summit), Product Group Meetings, Committee Meetings, Board Meetings, Social Events, Webinars, and QSSP Trainings.

Registration Agreement

This Registration Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions upon which the International Safety Equipment Association, together with its respective subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “ISEA,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), conducts and provides access to ISEA conferences, webinars, trainings, meetings, receptions, social events, or other sponsored events (each an “Event”). By registering online or otherwise agreeing to register for an Event, or by attending such an Event, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Registration Agreement. If you do not agree to this Registration Agreement, do not register for or attend an Event.

Attendee Cancellation

To receive a registration refund, less a $250 processing fee, cancellations must be received 4 weeks before the start of the event. No credit or refunds will be given for no shows. Please see the specific event page to view any additional details. For QSSP In-Person and Live Virtual courses,  if a registrant has a conflict, they are permitted to transfer to another QSSP course to be held within 6 months of the original course (the registrant is responsible for any cost difference.) Only one transfer is allowed per registrant.

Event Modification or Cancellation

ISEA reserves the right to modify an event’s schedule or program as necessary without notice, up to and including converting an in-person event to a hybrid of in-person and virtual, or to a fully virtual event. ISEA also reserves the right to cancel this Event, in which case a full refund of the registration fee will be provided. We are unable to refund any travel costs (flight, hotel, etc.) in the case of ISEA cancellation.

Code of Conduct

By registering for or attending the Event, you agree to comply with the following Code of Conduct at all time during the Event and any Event-related gatherings. The ISEA leadership and staff are committed to providing a safe, productive, welcoming, and vibrant learning environment to all participants, including staff and vendors, at all of our Events. We welcome people from as many diverse backgrounds as possible. We expect our Events to be a respectful, harassment-free environment for people of all races, gender and trans identity, sexual orientation, ability, nationality, ethnicity, socioeconomic status and beliefs. We have no tolerance for discrimination, harassment, or bullying in any form at an Event for any reason, including on account of a person’s age, ancestry, color, disability or handicap, national origin, race, religion, gender, sexual or affectional orientation, gender identity, appearance, matriculation, political affiliation, marital status, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law. Participants are expected to adhere to these principles and respect the rights of others. We’re grateful that our community is positive, friendly and supportive of one another — it’s what makes our events such a draw each year. In that spirit, the staff, supporters, volunteers, attendees and speakers at ISEA Events are expected to:

• Exercise consideration and respect in your speech and actions.
• Keep conversations professional, respectful and consider other parties’ points of view.  In short, don’t make it personal.  Passionate conversations are part of solving problems.  Disagreements happen all the time, and are necessary to consider difficult questions.
• Remember that the boundaries of good taste, humor, personal space and physical interaction differ from person to person; if you sense someone feels uncomfortable — whether they explicitly state it or not — be respectful of those boundaries.
• Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory or harassing behavior.  Harassment and inappropriate behavior may include, but are not limited to:
  • Sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic or otherwise discriminatory jokes or language, physical intimidation, stalking or following sustained disruption of talks or events.
  • Posting or displaying sexually explicit or violent material; if for any reason you may need this material for an educational session, please contact ISEA staff first and we can discuss how to give an appropriate warning to participants.
  • Unwelcome sexual attention.  This includes sexualized comments or jokes; inappropriate touching, groping and unwelcomed sexual advances.
  • Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.

Code of Ethics

The ISEA Code of Ethics is a statement of the common values of this Association. Its purpose is to guide us in the decisions we make as businesses and individuals when fulfilling our core mission of protecting workers. All ISEA members (both individuals and companies) are expected to:

• Maintain the highest standards of integrity and professional conduct, and comply with all applicable laws, regulations, policies, and ethical standards, in all areas
• Act with the utmost transparency and integrity in marketing, advertising, and product labeling
• Treat all persons with respect, dignity, and fairness, in a manner that fosters equitable participation without regard to personal identity
• Collaborate and cooperate with other ISEA members in the shared goal of advancing worker safety and the industry
• Respect the confidentiality of discussions in Product Groups, Committees, and other forums (This is not intended to prevent disclosure where required by law). Per ISEA’s Confidentiality Policy, participants agree not to disclose discussions (including any details about potential changes to draft standard revisions) to any person outside of their company, unless ISEA has expressly authorized disclosure.
• Represent faithfully the interests of the ISEA member company you represent

We are in agreement with ISEA’s Core Values and declare that we will make every effort to ensure that my company and its employees and contractors uphold this Code of Ethics.

Product Group & Committee Attendance Policy

ISEA is grateful for the hard work, creativity, and collaboration of our members who participate on our Committees and Product Groups. The success of ISEA’s Product Groups and Committees depends on active and collaborative participation by their members. Meeting attendance is limited to Committee and PG members to ensure:

• Focused Progress: Discussions are driven by committed stakeholders who have a vested interest in achieving the group’s goals, and background on the issues discussed.
• Efficiency: Meetings are more productive when attended by members who understand the group’s objectives and can contribute meaningfully.

Eligibility to Attend Product Group Meetings: Attendance at Product Group meetings is restricted to representatives of companies that are current members of ISEA and maintain an active membership on the specific Product Group. Companies are able to have their PG Voting Rep, Alternate Rep, and 1 Member Observer attend (space permitting). To manage discussion, PG Voting Reps are encouraged to speak on behalf of their company (to avoid 3 three people from a company dominating discussion, for example, without having been first recognized by the Chair). Seats at the table during in-person meetings are exclusively reserved for PG Voting Reps (or Alternate Reps in their stead). Prospective Product Group Participants: Employees of companies that do not belong to a particular PG are not able to attend meetings of that PG, unless previously authorized by ISEA. As a reminder, ISEA bylaws require all members companies that offer a specific product category to join the corresponding Product Group, with no exceptions. Only companies that are eligible to join a specific PG (i.e. they offer a product in that specific category covered by the PG, under their own brand) are able to audit meetings. If a company is planning to join a PG and would like more information about the PG’s goals and initiatives, ISEA offers the following options:

• Request More Information: ISEA staff would be happy to share information on the PG’s activities, goals, and membership requirements.
• Request an Invitation to Audit a Meeting: Prospective participants may request to audit a PG meeting, provided that their company meets the eligibility requirements outlined above (in addition to the below terms & conditions).

Audit attendance is granted on a case-by-case, space permitting basis, and allows the individual to observe the meeting in a listen-only capacity. Please note that at in-person meetings, we will likely not have sufficient seating to accommodate any prospective participants. Since these are members-only sessions, prospective participants are welcome to listen but agree to refrain from commenting or sitting at the main table (which is reserved for PG Voting Reps). If prospective participants have questions, concerns, about any feedback about what they hear in a meeting, they’re encouraged to share them immediately with ISEA. All prospective participants must agree to by all confidentiality, antitrust, and event policies. Eligibility to Attend Committee Meetings: Attendance at ISEA Program & Governance Committee meetings is restricted to individual members of that Committee. In contrast to Product Groups (where a company joins and selects Voting and Alternate Representatives), individuals are appointed by the ISEA Board or Staff to serve on Committees. Member company participants who do not belong to a specific Committee are not able to attend meetings of that Committee, unless previously authorized by ISEA (see below for additional detail). Under limited circumstances and only with prior approval of ISEA and the Committee Chair, Committee members may request to bring a colleague to a Committee meeting (e.g. an individual has specialized expertise relevant to a specific Committee initiative, etc.) If an individual is considering requesting to join a Committee and would like more information about the Committee’s goals and initiatives, the ISEA staff would be happy to share information on the Committee’s activities, goals, and membership requirements. Prospective participants may request to audit a Committee meeting. Audit attendance is granted on a case-by-case, space permitting basis. Please note that at in-person meetings, we will likely not have sufficient seating to accommodate any prospective participants. Since these are members-only sessions, prospective participants are welcome to listen but are asked to refrain from commenting or sitting around the main table (which is reserved for Committee Members). If prospective participants have questions, concerns, or feedback about what they hear in a meeting, they are encouraged to share them immediately with ISEA. All prospective participants must agree to all confidentiality, antitrust, and event policies. Voting Officers of ISEA (the Chair, Vice Chair, and Treasurer) and Trustees have a fiduciary duty to attend PG & Committee meetings, but also a responsibility to refrain from commenting or sitting at the main table (which is reserved for PG Voting Reps or Committee Members).

Antitrust Policy

Before every ISEA event, we wish to remind our members of the need to comply with antitrust laws.  There are two antitrust statutes that are of principal concern to individuals and firms who take part in association activities: the Sherman Act and the Federal Trade Commission Act. These laws prohibit contracts, combinations, and conspiracies in restraint of trade. The Supreme Court has said that not every contract or combination in restraint of trade constitutes a violation; only those which unreasonably restrain trade are unlawful. Thus the courts will look at all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the conduct in question in order to determine whether it unreasonably restrains trade and therefore violates the laws. Certain kinds of conduct are exclusively presumed to be unreasonable and therefore unlawful. Such conduct, which is considered to be unlawful per se, consists of certain practices which clearly restrain competition and have no other redeeming benefits. Examples of such practices include:

• Agreements to establish price (price fixing);
• Agreements to refuse to deal with third parties (boycotts);
• Agreements to allocate customers or markets;
• Tie-in sales which require the customer to buy an unwanted item in order to buy the product desired.

Associations by their very nature present potential antitrust problems. One reason is that in bringing competitors together into an association, there exists the means by which collusive action can be taken in violation of the antitrust laws. Since both the Sherman and Federal Trade Commission Acts prohibit combinations in restraint of trade and since an association by its very nature is a combination of competitors, one element of a possible violation is already present. Only the action to restrain trade must occur for there to be a violation. Another special antitrust problem of an association is that many of its valuable programs deal with subjects sensitive from an antitrust viewpoint — price reporting, product standards, certification, statistics, and customer relations. Association members should refrain from any discussion which could provide the basis for an inference that the members agreed to take any action that might restrain trade. An “agreement” among association members in antitrust terms is a very broad concept — it may be oral or written, formal or informal, expressed or implied. A “gentleman’s agreement” to “hold the line” on prices is more than sufficient to evidence an unlawful conspiracy to fix prices. The basic principle to be followed in avoiding antitrust violations in connection with association activity is: to see that no illegal agreements, expressed or implied, are reached or carried out through the association. Members should also avoid engaging in conduct which may give the appearance of an unlawful agreement. Following are some general guidelines which can minimize the possibility that inferences of antitrust guilt can be drawn from association activities:

1. Meetings should be held only when there are proper items of substance to be discussed which justify a meeting.
2. In advance of every meeting, a notice of meeting along with an agenda should be sent to each member of the group; the agenda should be specific and such broad topics as “marketing practices,” which might look suspicious from an antitrust standpoint, should be avoided.
3. Participants at the meeting should adhere strictly to the agenda. In general, subjects not included on the agenda should not be considered at the meeting.
4. If a member brings up for discussion at a meeting a subject of doubtful legality, he should be told immediately the subject is not a proper one for discussion. The association staff representative, counsel, or any member present who is aware of the legal implications of a discussion of the subject should attempt to halt the discussion. Should the discussion continue, despite protest, staff may adjourn the meeting and members should leave.
5. Minutes of all meetings will be kept by the association, and they must accurately report what actions, if any, were taken.
6. Secret or “rump” meetings held at the time of the regular meeting should be strictly avoided. The very nature of such meetings gives the clear appearance that prohibited activities may be taking place, and, accordingly, they seriously jeopardize legitimate association activities and create a very substantial risk that those activities will be investigated. An association staff member should be present at every meeting. If any member believes a meeting in executive session without staff present is nonetheless necessary to conduct legitimate association business, then association counsel should be in attendance.
7. During meetings there should be no recommendations with respect to “sensitive” antitrust subjects — those that relate to price, production levels, and the selection of customers or suppliers. Prices should not be discussed at all. In the less sensitive areas, such as standard-setting activities, recommendations are permissible.
8. Members should not be in any way coerced into taking part in association activities. There should be no policing of the industry to see how individual members are conducting their business.
9. If there is any doubt about an association program or subject of discussion, members should check with association staff and counsel. Members may also wish to consult with their company’s counsel, and this is encouraged.
10. Members should cooperate with Association counsel in all matters, particularly when counsel has ruled adversely about a particular activity.

The following topics are some of the main ones which should not be discussed at meetings of association members:

• Do not discuss current or future prices.
• Do not discuss what is a fair profit level.
• Do not discuss price adjustments.
• Do not discuss cash discounts.
• Do not discuss credit terms.
• Do not discuss allocating markets.
• Do not discuss wage rates.
• Do not discuss refusing to deal with a corporation.

Some of the basic areas of association activity that should be carefully scrutinized from an antitrust standpoint are the following:

• Denial of association membership to an applicant.
• Expulsion of an association member.
• Conduct of a statistical reporting program.
• Conduct of a standardization and certification program.
• Conduct of a joint research program.
• Establishment and enforcement of codes of ethics.
• Denial of association services to non-members.

There are both civil and criminal penalties for violating the antitrust laws. The penalties for violating the antitrust laws are severe. An individual and a corporation found to have violated the antitrust laws may be fined up to $1 million and $100 million, respectively, and/or jail sentences of up to ten years may be imposed. Additionally, there are civil penalties available to government antitrust enforcement agencies such as a cease and desist order and dissolution of the association. In addition to government enforcement of the antitrust laws, an individual or company that suffers injury as a result of an antitrust violation may file a private suit against the violator and recover treble damages. Therefore, the association’s antitrust liability does not lie solely at the hands of government enforcement agencies. Antitrust laws require that companies make their own unilateral decisions regarding the prices they charge, the products they sell, and who they do business with. Such decisions cannot be made collectively with competitors. Any discussions of current costs, prices or fees relative to your products or to others’ products and services, or focusing on the “cons” of working with third parties, could constitute antitrust violations. ISEA leadership, staff and legal counsel consider antitrust compliance essential and will monitor all meetings to ensure compliance.  Should you have any questions before, during, or after any meeting or activity, please immediately reach out to ISEA staff.

Use of Artificial Intelligence Digital Assistant Tools

This policy addresses AI tools that can record online or in-person meetings, generate transcripts, and summaries. This guidance applies to all ISEA community members and any attendee participating in meetings organized by ISEA. While text rendering of spoken discussions and presentations provided by AI meeting assistants may help to promote inclusion, accessibility and participation by those with disabilities or not fluent in the language used, there are implications on privacy and the willingness of participants to speak freely. ISEA may use Digital Assistants on member calls (e.g. Product Groups and Committees) to facilitate accurate note taking, and the creation of minutes. In this case, ISEA will explicitly inform participants about the use of the tool and request consent from all participants. Should any participants not approve, ISEA will not use the Digital Assistant for that meeting or portion of the meeting. If during a meeting a participant requests ISEA to turn off the Digital Assistant, it will do everything in its power to do so. While ISEA will share the manually, ISEA-edited notes/minutes (consistent with current practices), under no circumstances will recordings or full transcriptions be shared. Meeting participants may not have a Digital Assistant attend in their stead, and can’t attend along with their own Digital Assistant.
