Program Professional Framework
Environmental, Health, and Safety (ESH) Leadership and Governance
Program Overview
Serious incidents and environmental failures are rarely caused only by frontline errors; they usually reflect weaknesses in leadership, governance and organizational culture. This program equips senior managers and EHS leaders to govern environmental, health and safety performance: defining board and executive accountabilities, setting EHS policy and risk appetite, applying the leadership requirements of ISO 45001 and ISO 14001, building a positive safety culture, using leading and lagging indicators, and integrating EHS into ESG reporting. Cases from energy, construction and industrial operations in the Gulf illustrate how governance decisions shape EHS outcomes.
