“The EH&S profession continues to evolve and practitioners have to face a host of new
challenges and responsibilities.
We will discuss how this point in evolution was reached and where it might go in the future.
We will provide some technical and managerial strategies that will assist the professional in
staying ahead of the “New Normal” as it continues to evolve.”

Defining Evolution and Safety
Evolution is the change over time in one or more inherited traits found in populations or organisms.
Safety is the condition of being protected against different types of consequences of failure, damage or any other event which could be considered non-desirable.
6
Evolution put into Perspective
Began from the infancy of the modern age to today in our industrialized nation.
Shows the change over time in the culture and involvement of Safety over the past few years.
Shows how other countries have adapted (or a lack there of) to evolution during these developing times.

In the beginning,safety was
non existent.

10
Today, the industrialized world has achieved standards of safety that were never thought of before.
11
12
EvolutionIn Other Countries
However, not all countries think along the same lines. Even “Industrialized” or “civilized” countries do not incorporate safety into their operations.
13
14
15
However, we have come a long way.
We are no longer the one dimensional Safety Engineers of generations ago.
16
The New EHS Managers have become:
Risk Managers Project Managers Fire Safety Manager Incident Commanders Emergency Coordinators Safety AND Security Managers Business Continuity Professionals Workers’ Compensation Managers
17
Regulatory Agencies
18
Our governing body is not just OSHA or EPA, but European and Asia Regulatory bodies as well.
19
20
Our scope of work is no longer limited by the amount of people we encounter each day.
We are responsible for tens, hundreds, even thousands of people we may never meet.
Cultural and Geographic Differences
21
EHS Managers transcend time zones and language barriers. We need to get our
message across countries and hemispheres.

Being Dynamic
25
In today’s changing atmosphere, we the Safety Professionals, need to change with the times.
26
First Step
Be Prepared!In today’s economy, most of us have
encountered PGA (Peer Group Analysis).It is critical that you are the one with all the
skills necessary to keep the job.
27
Quick TestBe aware!Have you suddenly seen your workload increase OR decrease?Are critical decisions being done without your input?Have you lost direct reports?
These are all signs of PGA
28
Second Step
Establish yourself in your current field. Have a sound base, before taking on new responsibilities if possible.Make sure that you are the resident expert in the field that you are in now.
29
Third StepDo you want to succeed?Do you want your safety goals to get accomplished?Then you need to sell safety.
30
Fourth Step
Find the common groundIn order to get goals accomplished in your organization, merely citing OSHA regulations will not get you the kind of impact that you need.
31
Fifth StepFollow the moneyFinancial weight is the most powerful driving force in MOST company’s today.
32
How many times have you or your department been involved in financial decisions for your company?
(For example: New furniture or office chairs).
What happens if your company buys the wrong furniture for the office?
33
Doing the right thing is important.
Doing the right thing and being
financially sound can make you a
success or a failure.
34
Safety is no longer an option, but rather a standard that must be incorporated into mainstream business.
Our impact can be felt in the cost savings from Lost Time Days to Cost of Goods Sold.
The insurance premiums affect the bottom line and we affect the insurance premiums.
35
Total dollars spent on any project or any budget are affected by the quality of the safety professional.
You must interject safety in the calculation of any budget.
Without safety, production can and will be effected and business will be interrupted.
36
Today, take a look at the big picture and see where you or your department sits.
Are you on the corporate radar?
Far too many times, EHS has taken a back seat.
37
Water is fluid, soft and yielding. But water will wear away rock, which is rigid and cannot yield. —Tao Te Ching
38
Being Dynamic
Evolution is Adaptation
Adaption is key
Learn new technologiesDo not be afraid of changeYou must stay ahead of the curve
39
In order to adapt, we must learn a skill set for the new environment that we find ourselves in.
We can no longer be myopic and look at our lives in one dimension.
40
Whether we would like to or not, we need to expand our responsibilities.
There are very few careers that have not increased their workload or scope of accountability in today’s economy.
41
Review Points

42
SummaryThe new norm is changeThe new norm is adaptationThe new norm is doing more with lessSafety does not have the luxury of being isolated and insulated from the economyThere are more demands placed on us now, then ever before.Get in the fast lane or move over!
