Part X, Line 2:The Society is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state law, except for taxes pertaining to unrelated business income, if any. The Society has adopted the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, the Society may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Society and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income. During fiscal year 2014, there were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities. The Society files Forms 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois. The Society is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2011.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aAll American Society of Safety Engineers members in good standing 30 days prior to election are eligible to vote for a new slate of officers at each yearly election.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7bThe House of Delegates approves any new business brought before it from the Board of Directors. The House of Delegates is the organization unit of American Society of Safety Engineers that studies and debates matters important for the Society and the safety profession and sets broad direction through member representatives in a public forum. The House of Delegates meets annually at such place and time as determined by the Board of Directors for the purpose of receiving reports, amending the by-laws and other Society business. This meeting is typically held in conjunction with the Annual Professional Development Conference. The Board may also call special meetings. Official business of the House of Delegates may also be transacted by mail or electronic means.

The acceptance of such disclosures are made a part of the minutes of the meeting or documented by a mail ballot. The records of disclosure are maintained in ASSE's permanent records.
