The Decision Gap
Safety teams have more data than ever, but is it actually driving better decisions?
The Decision Gap: 2026 Benchmark examines insights from 167 EHS and operations leaders across construction, energy, manufacturing, utilities, and transportation. The report explores why 75% of safety leaders aren’t “very confident” their data would flag the next serious injury or fatality, the barriers preventing data from driving action, and how decision frequency and frontline participation impact confidence.
Discover what more confident safety programs do differently and how organizations can shorten the path between identifying risk, reaching the right people, and taking action before an incident occurs.
