The landscape of EHS (environment, health, and safety) has become increasingly complex in recent times, with the onset of the global pandemic, continuously expanding legislation of workplace safety standards, alongside a growing awareness of the importance of fostering mentally healthy people in the workplace.
The scope of EHS work has truly expanded to encompass far more than just hazard and risk management, with a much broader range of responsibilities for the EHS leaders within an organisation.
With a job where responsibilities continue to shift and change as rapidly as Auckland’s weather forecast, those responsible for leading EHS in their workplaces might feel the weight of their job on their shoulders - and with that, perhaps higher-than-ideal levels of stress and a never-ending to-do list.
