About Environmental Health and Safety
Environment, health, and safety, or EHS, is the group that researches and puts into practice the practical elements of preserving the environment and upholding health and safety at the workplace. Simply put, it is what businesses must do to ensure that their operations don't damage anyone.
Why is Environmental Health and Safety important?
The main advantage of EHS and workplace EHS programs is plain to see: they reduce the likelihood of incidents like accidents, diseases, and emissions that harm the environment. The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire is among the most egregious historical examples of a workplace tragedy that demonstrated the necessity for EHS actions.
