For years, environment, health, and safety (EHS) programs were treated as the paperwork-heavy cousin of corporate compliance—necessary, yes, but hardly the stuff of boardroom strategy.

It was a rare public signal from one of the most security-mature organizations on the planet — and the timing could not have been sharper.
