The Challenge

A Key EHS Leader Lost Before Launch

A global building materials manufacturer with 170,000+ employees lost a key EHS Area Manager responsible for three U.S. locations, with a new facility under construction. The company had already spent 60+ days trying to hire internally, with no results.

Delayed opening = millions in lost productivity
Extended hiring timelines = increased labor and production costs
No safety lead = higher risk of OSHA fines or incidents
