Dakota Software highlights the evolving role of EHS managers in new white paper
The role of environmental, health and safety (EHS) professionals has undergone a sea change in recent years, according to the new whitepaper “EHS Managers: The Evolution from Necessary Evil to Vital Leaders” by Dakota Software.
The white paper outlines how the EHS department, once considered a cost center solely responsible for complying with burdensome obligations, has evolved to become a leading force for mitigating risk, improving operational efficiency and, more recently, implementing and managing corporate-wide sustainability initiatives. It provides a glimpse into the past and present challenges of the profession, including the increasing complexity of regulatory compliance and resource management.
