What Does EHS Stand For?
EHS stands for Extremely Hazardous Substance
EHS, or Extremely Hazardous Substance, refers to materials that pose significant risks to human health and the environment due to their toxicity, reactivity, or potential for causing severe harm. These substances are regulated under various environmental health and safety laws to ensure proper handling, storage, and disposal, minimizing risks associated with exposure and contamination. Organizations that work with EHS must implement rigorous safety protocols to protect workers and the surrounding community.
