EHS Metrics - Safety Metrics to Measure your Company

Course Description:

Environmental Health and Safety Metrics (EHS metrics) are the measurable performances of an environmental or safety activity or program within an organization. EHS metrics that are followed in an organization should be consistent, comparable, credible and relevant to the people using it. A good performance metric can give organization valuable information to improve efficiency and profitability. EHS metrics can also help in the more efficient use of resources and general health and well being of workers in an organization. This EHS Metrics webinar will discuss the various safety metrics used to measure safety performance, what is being measured, and why tracking metrics often does not deliver the improvements in desired performance.

Course Objective:
