EHS Prioritization of Issues (POI)
Many of our clients find it particularly useful to manage their Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) programs based on a risk-prioritized approach. The EORM Prioritization of Issues or POI assessment targets EHS issues that have business impact and regulatory liability exposure.

The EORM POI provides a proactive roadmap that efficiently steers your EHS resources towards minimizing injuries, property damage, business interruption, regulatory fines, notice of violations, unsolicited media coverage, or other losses.
Customized to Fit any Business Need
The scope of a Prioritization of Issues Assessment can be comprehensive or cursory in nature and may include environmental and/or health and safety concerns. Typically, POIs are beneficial during: new company acquisitions, benchmark studies, and resource allocation/budgeting. They are especially helpful in preparing for internal audits or scheduled/expected regulatory audits.
Evaluating Your Compliance Status
The POI process offers an excellent opportunity for an external expert to evaluate your compliance status. In addition, a POI identifies the positive aspects of your programs as well as potential gaps that could lead to regulatory exposure. EORM’s goal is to help you identify concerns before they create a workplace incident or are identified during a regulatory inspection. We help our clients Prevent rather than React to EHS situations.
The POI Assessment provides a prioritized list of compliance issues with your EORM consultant’s corresponding recommendations. This list can be easily translated into action items which can be delegated to appropriate individuals. In many cases, a comprehensive POI also helps justify additional resources to better address the facility’s EHS needs.
