  29. Hub & Spoke EHS Service Operating in the environment prior to the RBU structure, the approach CSU EHS pursued was hub & spoke

  30. Benefits • Customised attention to each company • Fast communication

  31. Drawbacks • Huge effort required to service and monitor 40 individual clients • Confusion as to what was required • Difficult to leverage opportunities within and across: RBUs, facilities, and countries due to exclusive reliance on CSU EHS

  32. Drawbacks • Continuous “fire drills” limit time to think and plan strategically • Little incentive for member companies to generate their own agenda

  33. “Spoon Feeding” Approach 1997

  34. “Spoon Feeding” Approach Major goals: • Formal standards and action plans • Improve effectiveness • Mandatory minimum standards Leveraging information and resources in 3 ways: 1. Within regional business groups 2. Among facilities 3. Within countries The tool: EHS Programmes • Assign responsibilities • Provide information and tools

The EHS committee is responsible for: • Reviewing periodically the EHS Laws & Regulations binder to maintain familiarity with the laws and regulations that apply to the company • Reporting to CSU EHS their status of regulatory compliance by 1 May using the format suggested in Appendix A • Co-ordinating with company management and CSU EHS to ensure that the company remains in compliance with EHS laws and regulations Standards Responsibilities
