EMERGING RISKS IN EHS AND SUSTAINABILITY: WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

What EHS&S trends are top of mind for companies like yours? Our clients say that
these 3 emerging risks stand out above the rest. 


Back to overview



We asked our clients to identify the 3 issues that were currently ‘top of mind’
for them, meaning those most important to their business. Of the 140 responses,
almost half (68, or 48.6%) mentioned sustainability reporting or environmental,
social and governance (ESG) reporting. No other factor was mentioned by more
than 40% of respondents.  

It’s interesting to note that our experts have found companies that are already
ahead on environmental health and safety reporting have a head start on ESG
reporting. They generally have better data and have become accustomed to mining
it for information and insights. The requirements for ESG reporting may be
different than for EHS, but the sources of information are the same. The issue
is therefore to help others to reach this same understanding and be able to draw
on their existing data to solve this problem.  


EMERGING RISKS IN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

The next most important factor from the annual survey, carbon emissions
management, capping, trading and taxation, was mentioned by 54 respondents, or
38.6%. It was closely followed by energy efficiency and resource management,
identified by 48 respondents, or 34.3%. Both these are far fewer than the number
highlighting ESG reporting, but still represent considerable concern.  

These were key issues were highlighted by our experts in their own
trend-spotting survey. Over half of them identified environmental issues as a
key trend. Several specifically mentioned emissions, carbon taxation, and
climate change mitigation. Others commented on improving resource management or
the move to renewable energy. There is clearly consensus between both experts
and clients that environmental issues will feature heavily over the next 12
months. 


ZEROING IN ON CARBON EMISSIONS

It’s certainly true that environmental issues are taking a larger role on the
world stage—and that businesses are expected to take action to address climate
change. Governments everywhere are tightening legislation to ensure that this
happens. There is huge awareness of the global emissions reduction targets and
move towards zero carbon emissions among businesses, and concerns about how
these will be reached. This is one trend that is definitely not going to
disappear in the next year or so. 

Other environmental issues highlighted by both clients and experts were waste
management and wastewater management. Waste management regulations were
mentioned by 45 respondents, or 32.1% and wastewater management by 38 people, or
27.1%. These were also both identified by several of our experts. One expert
commented that waste management was a particular issue in certain countries, and
mentioned new legislation being introduced in Spain. 

Overall, just under one-fifth of respondents (17.9%) cited single use plastics,
plastic pollution or recycling strategies as an issue for their business. A
total of 17 (12.1%) mentioned per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS),
substances found in non-stick cookware, stain-resistant carpets and
grease-resistant packaging. These are considered to be emerging contaminants,
and scientific consensus is growing on their adverse health effects, resulting
in increasing attention from regulators. Both these issues were also cited by
our experts, either as a compliance issue, or an environmental one.  


CONCERNS ABOUT HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK

Another category that was cited by both clients and experts was health and
safety at work. Two main issues were mentioned here. The first was chemical
management in the workplace, which was highlighted by 47 respondents to the
annual survey, or 33.6% (the fourth-most commonly mentioned category). This was
also identified as a trend by one of our experts, but only one. This suggests
that it is not top of mind for most of them. This is an interesting mismatch,
especially because this area is expected to become increasingly important in the
US, where successive administrations have been keen to tighten up regulations
and enforcement. 

The other issue that was highlighted by both experts and clients was
teleworking. This issue has emerged from the pandemic, and many organizations
are still grappling with their responsibilities in this area. There’s growing
consensus that businesses need to help and support staff to ensure their health
and safety wherever they work, including at home. However, the details of how
this will happen are still being developed.  

While this hasn’t historically been a huge issue for all of our clients, it’s
worth being aware of its importance for some organizations. It’s clear that
several of our experts are following this area with interest and expect to see
it becoming more important over the next year. 


MORE ON EMERGING RISKS FOR MULTI-NATIONAL BUSINESSES

Overall, there was reasonable consensus among our clients and experts that the
big–ticket emerging risks in EHS and sustainability for the rest of this year
will mainly be in the environmental area. They are also generally driven by
increasing regulation, which further reinforces the critical need to have a
wider-reaching view of evolving requirements in your jurisdictions. To learn
