About EHS Awards

Businesses in India are no longer putting in place Environment,
Health & Safety (EHS) initiatives as a matter of compliance but as
a means to enhance their global standing, protect employees, and
behave responsibly towards society and the environment.
In developed countries, all places of work - industries, offices,
universities, medical institutions, government and social
organisations adhere to Environment, Health & Safety (EHS)
standards. But in India, an estimated 82% workplaces do not
comply with EHS norms, according to a cross-sector survey of
done recently. There is, however, a growing consciousness of the
need to comply with EHS requirements. The survey found that all
sectors uniformly increased their EHS budgets over the last few
years.
More than a decade, the Confederation of Indian Industry is
recognising the companies with innovative and best practices in
EHS through the CII-SR EHS Excellence Awards.
With this background, CII Southern Region is announcing the 12th
Edition of CII-SR EHS Excellence Awards 2019.
