How to Plan and Execute an EHS Awareness Day

A common theme among successful EHS programs is awareness and understanding among employees. Employees need to know what EHS is, why it’s important, and how they can contribute to a healthier and safer work environment. But oftentimes this isn’t the case. According to our research, 72% of employees are largely unaware of their company’s EHS function.

Holding an annual EHS Awareness Day can be a great way to encourage engagement and make EHS more visible. It’s an excellent opportunity to shine a light on often overlooked safety issues, show employees their safety is a company priority, and drive toward creating a company culture where EHS is understood and valued.

On the Antea Group blog, we dive into 7 tips that can help EHS managers plan and execute a successful EHS Awareness Day.
