Integrated Health and Safety (IHS) Index
Taking into account the global success and impact of the DJSI, and increasing discussions among workplace health experts about the need for standardized, public metrics reporting of health and safety data, ACOEM and Underwriters Laboratories (UL) have partnered to create a consistent, replicable, public metrics reporting system similar to DJSI, making it possible for investors to assess the business value of health and safety. One of the long-term goals of this effort is to help propel faster establishment of true cultures of integrated health and safety in the workplace. The resulting system, called the Integrated Health and Safety Index, allows employers to measure their performance in three key dimensions of sustainability modeled by the DJSI: economic, social and environmental.
