Research and Publications

Literature Review: The Evolving Relationship
Between EHS and Voluntary Turnover

Voluntary turnover disrupts operational efficiency, erodes organizational knowledge and can lead to a decline in overall performance. In November 2021, voluntary turnover rates in the U.S. reached a 20-year high, highlighting the profound changes in workforce dynamics. This review explores how EHS initiatives can be leveraged to improve employee retention.

White Paper - The Heart of Workplace Safety:
Fostering Emotional Engagement for Lasting Impact

In today’s workplace, cultivating a safety culture that resonates both emotionally and intellectually with employees is essential for fostering a resilient and proactive environment. This paper explores the critical elements and strategies for building a safety culture that transforms safety from a compliance-based requirement into a shared, intrinsic organizational value.

Literature Review: Exploring the Role of Generative AI in 
Occupational Environment, Health and Safety

Presents results of a literature review on the evolving landscape of generative artificial intelligence in occupational environment, health and safety domains. Drawing from 27 peer-reviewed articles, industry reports and grey literature sources published between 2018 and 2024, this review captures a snapshot of how GenAI is beginning to make its mark across diverse EHS functions.

White Paper - The Challenge of Safety Metrics:
Leading Indicators in Real-world Applications

Explores the real-world conditions that influence whether leading indicator programs take root and deliver lasting value. Drawing on insights from professionals across logistics, aviation and manufacturing, the report highlights the organizational, cultural and strategic factors that shape success.


events and networking

In February, Campbell Institute members participated in the 2025 Future of EHS for over 200 EHS professionals, business leaders, and researchers. The event included Campbell Institute securing speakers and hosting a technical session. Moving forward, this event has been combined with the NSC Spring Safety Conference and Expo and the NSC HOP Summit to create a new, leadership focused event each Spring, the NSC Safety Summit.

The Campbell Institute Track at the NSC Safety Congress & Expo featured robust programming focused on ASTM Standards around classification, employee & executive engagement, and hazardous risk. Attendance included over 1,000 participants across all events (Campbell Institute Forum, Executive Summit, and the Campbell Institute Workshops.

The Campbell Award was not given in 2025 to accommodate a criteria refresh and timing adjustment.

The Institute hosted one virtual meeting in August, engaging participants in a diverse agenda covering two Psychological Safety sessions, EHS Organizational Structure, and an open benchmarking session.
