Increased investment in H&S (health and safety) over the next three years will be directed at a much-changed set of priorities for the companies that participated in our 2024 Global Health & Safety Survey. 31% percent of the participants will invest in digitalizing H&S processes, the number one priority investment in 2024, ranked seventh in 2021. The scale of organizations' investment in H&S is substantive and runs ahead of all key economic indicators. This is a tremendous opportunity for those charged with accountability for protecting the health, safety, and well-being of people at work, and it means sustained business success in a changing world of work. Even though 22% of the Function Leaders shared that their increased understanding of H&S risks had caused them to revise their priorities, the findings strongly suggest a need for more careful consideration of how these investment resources are deployed. #HealthAndSafety #HS #WorkplaceSafety
