What Are EHS Services and Why Do They Matter?

Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) services are essential for identifying workplace risks, maintaining compliance and protecting both people and the environment. These services encompass strategies, tools and safety consulting support that ensure regulatory compliance and workplace safety standards are consistently met.

Whether you’re operating a construction site, manufacturing plant or corporate campus, strong workplace safety practices rely on tailored EHS services to mitigate risk, reduce liability and improve employee wellbeing.

EHS Risk Assessment for Identifying Hazards

EHS risk assessments play a crucial role in understanding your organization’s exposure to safety and environmental hazards. By following a structured risk assessment process, Medcor’s team helps your business identify potential hazards, evaluate their impact and implement strategies for mitigating risk.

1. Define Scope and Objectives

Establish the purpose, parameters and goals of the assessment to ensure all relevant areas of your operation are included.

2. Hazard Identification

Identify physical, chemical, biological and ergonomic hazards that could lead to injuries, illnesses or environmental harm.

3. Risk Analysis

Assess the likelihood and severity of harm associated with each identified hazard.

4. Develop Control Measures

Design and recommend appropriate safety controls, including PPE, training and procedural changes to reduce or eliminate risks.

5. Document, Monitor & Review

Maintain detailed records, track risk mitigation effectiveness and continuously review assessment data to improve safety over time. Medcor’s proprietary technology and secure client portal make it easy to access reports, visualize trends and collaborate across teams—empowering EHS leaders to take a proactive, data-driven approach to safety.
