SEL Profile
Safety, Environment & Legislation (SEL) is a core IMCA activity working on behalf of all members world-wide to help address issues of common concern.
The SEL activity has a broad work programme, delivered through its management committee, a variety of workgroups and with secretariat and member input all combining to deliver the association's key objectives.
The committee also oversees relevant aspects of work in the technical divisions, which address detailed aspects relevant to their own sector, to help ensure a consistent approach that can be applied across the industry.

This work includes development of good practice guidance, publication of a range of safety promotion materials and co-ordination of systems for sharing safety-related information (see below). This is all monitored through an annual safety statistics exercise.
