CSHS takes lead role in coalition to advance worker safety and health
The Center for Safety and Health Sustainability (CSHS), whose member organizations represent more than 100,000 workplace safety and health professionals around the world, has signed on as a strategic partner of the newly launched Capitals Coalition. The Switzerland-based coalition, which unites more than 350 organizations globally, is a merger of the Natural Capital Coalition and the Social & Human Capital Coalition. The group will take an integrated and systemic approach in addressing environmental, social and economic challenges.
The Capitals Coalition believes many global leaders overlook the value provided by nature, people and society when managing their businesses. “Natural capital” – the world's stock of natural resources – is a growing international focus for organizations, and coalition members want it top of mind when world leaders review and update targets for biodiversity and climate, and measure progress against sustainable development goals that include workplace safety and health.
