NAEM is the largest professional association for corporate environment, health and safety, and sustainability decision-makers.

Based on more than two dozen interviews with corporate leaders and sustainability experts, the report reveals that among leadership companies, sustainability has evolved from a collection of programs into a risk-based business management strategy.

“The leadership companies we spoke with have overcome the inertia and even the initial excitement that came with picking the low-hanging fruit, and are more thoroughly integrating the concepts of sustainability into their operations and beyond their gates,” said Carol Singer Neuvelt, Executive Director of NAEM.

The hallmarks of this transition are reflected in several of the 12 trends that the report identifies as the ideas that will shape EHS and sustainability management in the year to come. These include:

  • 新计划的重点是供应链中的环境风险
  • There's a new emphasis on employee engagement
  • Effective risk management now includes environmental considerations
  • Companies are beginning to make plans for climate adaptation
  • There’s a growing awareness that resilience will require a longer timeframe for strategic planning
  • Advancing sustainability will require new thinking and systemic changes

除了概述2014年决策的核心驱动力外,该报告还提供了对即将出现的新兴问题的见解。

“The conversations that EHS and sustainability leaders are having internally today will become the programs of tomorrow,” Ms. Neuvelt said. “This report provides a unique inside look at what is on the minds of the professionals who are guiding this transition to a more sustainable future.”
