ESG – Environment, Social, and Governance – is all the rage. Whether its attention from investors that see ESG metrics as innovative risk indicators, attention from businesses trying to understand current and upcoming disclosure requirements, or attention from consumers that want to use ESG data to inform purchase behaviours, the ability to collect, report, analyze, and improve ESG metrics will be a hallmark of leading businesses in the 2020s and beyond.
So why should EHS professionals pay attention? Because a significant portion of the ESG data that so many stakeholders are after will come directly from the EHS Department.

The newfound spotlight on the role is resulting in material change to tactical job requirements, executive visibility, and organizational influence. Are you ready to navigate and embrace the change?
