Elizabeth Calvanese
Elizabeth Calvanese is a partner in Goggin Safety Services, an all women owned business. While studying her undergrad at Suffolk University of Boston Elizabeth became interested in helping the lives of others.
Having a background in the physical therapy world, Elizabeth often dealt with work-related injuries. Working with injuries involving heavy lifting, she then implemented her own CORE Training program used amongst out-patient clients for successful full-body rehab. Specializing in Ergonomics gave her the interest to become involved in construction safety.
She began with writing safety manuals part-time for Goggin Safety Services in 2012 and is now a full-time construction safety specialist as well as an OSHA Outreach Instructor.
Elizabeth travels the New England area performing on-site inspections and training to ensure proper safety for all employers and employees.
For over 20 years, Goggin Safety Services has partnered with companies across construction, manufacturing, warehousing, and more to offer a complete environmental, health, safety, and wellness training solution that reduces risk and empowers workers with the knowledge and confidence they need to remain safe on the job.
