EHS teams are navigating rising injury risk, widening visibility gaps, and expanding responsibilities—often with shrinking teams and uneven technology maturity. This report reveals where pressure is building and how organizations are responding.

• How safety performance, injury severity, and underreporting are shifting year over year
• The visibility gaps keeping early warning signals out of reach
• What’s stretching EHS teams thin: capacity, resourcing, and growing expectations
• Where technology is falling behind—and where it’s starting to catch up
• How AI has moved from experimentation to everyday EHS use
• Strategic actions to strengthen early risk detection, scale capacity, and improve decision-making
