- Denver, CO (1888PressRelease) March 21, 2014 - Stephen L. Vogel, who holds a BS in Industrial Safety and an MS in Safety Management, both from the University of Central Missouri, followed by a PhD in Safety Engineering from Warren National University, has been working in the field of safety since he was active in the US Air Force Reserves in 1988. After earning both his BS and MS and with several years of experience, he became a district safety manager for the largest truck leasing company in the transportation industry in 1992. It was during this time that he also became a Certified Director of Safety (CDS) through the North American Transportation Management Institute (NATMI).
Over the next few years, Dr. Vogel went on to work in the home improvement industry as a corporate hazardous materials manager and later for the largest third-party logistics company as their corporate director of safety. This opportunity brought on more experience with regards to safety regulations governing transportation via ground, air, water, rail, and pipeline, as well as how to develop and implement a world-class fleet safety policy and best practices on how to hire and train safety manager staff.
In 2003, Dr. Vogel ventured into business for himself, founding Vogel Safety & Risk, Inc., offering safety consulting services on a national basis, with a few international clients. Vogel Safety has continuously found growth in many ways and in many industries, regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, a division of the Department of Transportation (DOT). Dr. Vogel constantly seeks out innovative ways to continue assisting workforce changes. He is an instructor of DOT compliance seminars, conducts DOT audits and on-site training in various topics, serves as an expert witness, customizes fleet safety policies and procedures, creates drug and alcohol testing policies and written security plans for haulers of hazardous materials, develops new products and services, and manages the office and consultant staff, all the while serving as the company's senior consultant.
"I believe the more I learn, the more I can help others to save lives," Dr. Vogel said. "The one thing that sets me apart from other consultants is that I actually care about people more than money, which has also been my source of inspiration."
Dr. Vogel recently co-founded a partner company, ProDriver Connections, a certification program that makes an average driver into a certified transportation specialist. He wanted to do this to help reduce the frequency and severity of vehicle accidents and the amount of driver turnover in the transportation industry. His future goals include the expansion of Vogel Safety & Risk so he can support a humanitarian effort that will help the homeless find jobs and homes, help the next generation become leaders of their generation, and help those in need by becoming a life coach.
As a member of the board of directors for two non-profit organizations, Geneses XXI and Mosaic, Dr. Vogel also serves on Mosaic's elder board. He has served on various other boards in the past, including NATMI, and is currently a course instructor for various organizations regarding safety regulations and defensive driving.
