Challenge: Improving Industry-Wide HSE Performance— Particularly Contractor Safety
The Retail industry faces numerous challenges including sustainable development, global climate changes, international regulatory consistency, and of course, workplace and environmental health and safety.

While the industry’s implementation of Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) management systems has yielded significant improvements in industry-wide safety performance metrics over the past few years, continued vigilance is essential, especially in the area of contractor safety and health, given that approximately 40 percent of retail workers are contract employees.

To remain successful, Retail firms must:
  • Remain vigilant about—and continue to enhance—HSE performance through successful implementation of HSE management systems.
  • Ensure consistency and coordination between HSE systems of corporate and contract employees who work side-by-side in the field.
  • Maintain accurate, comprehensive records on employee/contractor HSE training and certifications to ensure regulatory compliance.
  • Provide easy access to top-quality HSE training at a reasonable cost.
