In occupational safety and health, both EHS (Environment, Health, and Safety) and HSE (Health, Safety, and Environment) are critical frameworks. While their functions overlap, their emphasis differs. EHS focuses on the environment first, addressing pollution and resource management, followed by health and safety concerns. In contrast, HSE prioritizes health and safety first, then considers environmental protection. Understanding the differences between these two approaches can help organizations improve workplace conditions and maintain compliance with safety regulations. In Nigeria, industries benefit greatly from HSE practices as they foster a safer and healthier work environment, promoting sustainable growth and community well-being.
