Exploring the Role of Generative AI in EHS
Generative AI tools like Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT are increasingly integrated into workplace operations, offering potential efficiencies in data management and routine task automation. What does this mean for the field of occupational environment, health, and safety (EHS)? This webinar presents findings from a literature review spanning 2019 to 2024, examining how Generative AI is being discussed and studied in EHS contexts. The session will highlight emerging themes, areas of interest, and notable gaps in the current research. Join Carolyn Evemy, MA, Research Associate at the Campbell Institute, for a thoughtful look at where Generative AI may support EHS efforts and where further investigation is needed.
The Heart of Workplace Safety: Fostering Emotional Engagement for Lasting Impact
Join Carolyn Evemy, Research Associate at the National Safety Council, for a webinar on emotional engagement and its pivotal role in advancing workplace safety. This webinar shares key insights from “The Heart of Workplace Safety: Fostering Emotional Engagement for Lasting Impact”, the latest white paper from the Campbell Institute. Based on data and perspectives collected from leading organizations in Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS), the session examines how factors like trust, recognition, and communication may influence how workers perceive and respond to safety efforts. This webinar will also equip safety leaders and professionals with a clear understanding of the difference between safety culture and climate, tools to strengthen emotional engagement across teams, and practical steps to embed emotional safety into day-to-day operations. Learn how your organization can lead with heart by putting people at the center of your safety strategy.

Serious Injury and Fatality Prevention: Leading Indicators, Cumulative Risk and Safety Networks
Highlighting the third white paper in the Campbell Institute’s serious injury and fatality (SIF) prevention series, this webinar addresses leading indicators for SIF prevention by discussing programmatic elements that organizations can use to design their SIF prevention program. Additionally, two frameworks are introduced to support SIF prevention efforts – cumulative risk assessment and social network analysis.
Designing Strategy for Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) Prevention
The Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) Prevention Workgroup within the Campbell Institute created an implementation guide for SIF prevention, with real-life case study examples of their approaches to and lessons learned from SIF prevention. This webinar presents member perspectives about developing their strategies and long-term goals for SIF prevention, use and evaluation of SIF metrics, tools for SIF prevention, communication, as well as, a perspective on SIF Prevention during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Contractor Life Cycle: Managing Expectations
This webinar will highlight the successes and challenges experienced by Campbell Institute members in each stage of the contractor management life cycle. Discussion will also address how the COVID-19 pandemic may change the management of contractors and further impact expectations.
Beyond Safety: Leading Indicators for Health and Wellbeing
The majority of the leading health indicators developed by other sources look specifically at physical wellbeing, and also approach health and wellbeing from a general community and public health perspective. While still useful, the Campbell Institute Health & Wellbeing Workgroup wanted to create a list of leading indicators more inclusive of wellbeing – physical, mental, emotional, financial – and provide indicators that employers in a variety of industries can implement and track to improve health and safety outcomes. Join us to hear about this latest research from author Joy Inouye.
Lisa Bultman, of member organization Owens Corning, will provide examples of metrics used in her organization.
An Implementation Guide to Leading Indicators
The Leading Indicators Workgroup within the Campbell Institute collaborated on a benchmarking exercise, submitting the leading indicator metrics that their organizations were actively tracking in 2018. This webinar presents a comprehensive list of those metrics, ranked and categorized by organizational maturity and complexity. Learn where an organization has to be in its safety journey in order to implement the leading metric, and how complex a process it is to track and calculate a given metric.
Campbell Institute research associate Joy Inouye and Kevin Converse of United Rentals to present why leading indicators for EHS is not only worthwhile but necessary for creating safe and sustainable workplaces.
Sustainability: Key Takeaways from a Campbell Institute Member Organization
“Sustainability” for Campbell Institute member organizations is about more than just being green – it’s also about protecting worker health and safety, and ensuring a profitable business for years to come. In this webinar, hear the findings from a Campbell Institute research study on corporate sustainability, and learn about the sustainability efforts of Institute members – what they’re doing well and how they plan on becoming even better. This webinar will feature the sustainability efforts from recent Campbell Award winner, USG, and how they have continued to protect workers and preserve the planet since the white paper was first released. A live Q&A session will follow the presentation.
A Second Look: Update on Visual Literacy
Last year, the Campbell Institute introduced the concept of visual literacy for occupational safety in its collaboration with the Center for Visual Expertise (COVE) and Institute member organizations. The purpose of this research collaboration was and is to evaluate the effectiveness of visual literacy training on workplace health and safety outcomes. That is, does “learning to see” improve our ability to identify hazards in the workplace, keeping us safer while on the job? This webinar provides background and preliminary research results of the pilot project for visual literacy launched last year.
Serious Injury & Fatality Prevention: Perspectives and Practices
In the past twenty years, the US has seen gains in workplace safety, particularly regarding total recordable incident rate (TRIR). This reduction in workplace injuries should not be overshadowed by another more disturbing trend, namely that the number of life-altering injuries and fatal incidents has been on a much slower decline, and in fact has increased for the past three years. The next step in the journey to safety excellence, and one that Campbell Institute companies are currently pursuing, is the elimination of serious injuries and life-altering events. This webinar will summarize the current state of research on serious injury and fatality (SIF) prevention and provides insight into how Institute organizations are protecting their workers from harm.
A Systems Approach to Worker Health & Wellbeing
More companies than before are realizing that a robust worker safety program needs to include worker wellbeing in an integrated safety and health system. In this presentation, you’ll hear about a systems approach to worker health and wellbeing based on risk assessments and a Plan, Do, Check, Act model.
Visual Literacy: “How Learning to See” Benefits Occupational Safety
Hear about a new project from the Campbell Institute and the Toledo Museum of Art to discover how better visual literacy can improve hazard recognition. Also learn how Campbell Institute member Owens Corning has already incorporated visual literacy into their safety training.
