National Safety Council appoints Todd Buehrig to Board of Directors
October 5, 2026
Todd Buehrig, President & CEO of the National Safety Council Southeastern Chapter (SCNSC), has been elected to the National Safety Council Board of Directors. Announced during the 2026 NSC Safety Congress & Expo in Indianapolis, his appointment places him alongside four other new board members tasked with providing strategic oversight to guide the organization’s national initiatives in workplace and roadway safety.
Since joining SCNSC in 2017, Buehrig has led a period of significant growth and transformation across South Carolina and Georgia, expanding the Chapter’s safety training programs, reach and impact. Under his leadership, SCNSC has launched new community safety initiatives, strengthened and broadened roadway and workplace safety programs, and established a second training center in Atlanta, Georgia. Throughout that growth, the mission has remained at the heart of the work: saving lives from the roadway to the workplace across South Carolina & Georgia. Buehrig’s focus on innovation, strategic growth and community partnerships has helped SCNSC reach more people, serve more organizations and respond to evolving safety needs across the Southeast.
“I’m proud of what our team, instructors and partners are accomplishing across South Carolina and Georgia, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to bring that experience and perspective to the national level,” said Buehrig. “I look forward to working alongside leaders from across the country as we continue finding new ways to make our workplaces, roadways and communities safer.”
Today, SCNSC reaches more than 40,000 individuals each year through community wellbeing, roadway and workplace safety programs. Behind that number are people, families and communities connected by a powerful goal – ensuring everyone makes it home safe at the end of the day. Buehrig’s appointment brings that commitment to the national level, where he will help advance NSC’s work to save lives and prevent injuries across the Southeast and beyond.
