"This book focuses on operationalizing sustainability in the context of worker safety, health and wellbeing, thereby connecting the dots between the subject, the perspective, and the professional's role. It also incorporates culture and discipline processes to operationalize the concepts. The book uses integrated business and risk models related to the frameworks, standards, themes, issues, impacts and materiality. Global in scope and applicability, this resource remains practical and scalable to the size and nature of a company's operations. The primary focus of the book is on the intersectionality of sustainability and EHS professionals because these two competencies form the basis of all successful businesses, therefore, it is applicable to anyone in the business. For example, the supply chain chapter will be of interest to the procurement professional. While the risk management chapter may be a focus for the enterprise risk team and applicable to procurement as well as internal audit and others. From the C-Suite to the front line worker, this book provides value throughout an organization."-- Provided by publisher.
