## Resource

Happy New Year 2026! In this episode, Sheldon Primus reviews his eBook Top 10 EHS Challenges for 2025 and gives himself a scorecard: Hit, Partial, Mixed, or Evergreen. He breaks down what “regulatory scrutiny” really looks like (enforcement, rulemaking, and data transparency), highlights why climate and heat planning became a major operational focus, and explains why remote work and mental health remained real EHS issues—not just HR topics. You’ll also hear practical examples tied to real-world signals (OSHA reporting/data transparency, training gaps reflected in common standards, public health guidance, and cyber/ICS attention). Sheldon closes with a forward-looking challenge: stop relying only on lagging metrics and start building leading indicators—like EAP utilization trends, hazard reporting rates, and near-miss learning—to predict risk before incidents happen. Plus: Sheldon shares how to access a free proposal mini-course + template and invites you to Safety Consultant 101 (free live workshop).
