Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Management
From the time of the industrial revolution to the 1980s, the single-minded focus on industrial and economic growth has cost the environment severely. Pollution and depletion of resources at a fast pace forced governments to wake up and realize the importance of the environment, health and safety. Frameworks that guide businesses on how to continue to grow while implementing sustainable business processes as well as making the workplace safe. In a stringent environment, regulatory bodies expect employers to create a safe workplace. This expectation is shared by employees who are concerned about their own safety. They feel more involved when they see their employers care and their productivity improves as a result. Customers and other stakeholders also have a positive perception about businesses that put the safety on par with quality and growth.
