Stewardship and Sustainability Committee Mission

• The Stewardship and Sustainability Committee
  provides a bridge between AIHA members and
  businesses, workers, government, and the
  community to meet the health, safety, and
  environmental needs of present generations
  without compromising the needs of future
  generations. Through education, and the
  development of training, communication, and
  resource tools the committee enables the AIHA
  membership to utilize sustainability and
  stewardship models to balance the financial,
  social, and environmental objectives of the
  organization.

6
Stewardship and Sustainability Committee What
We Do

• Educate the membership on the importance of
  balancing the financial, social and environmental
  objectives of any organization
• Build consensus for sustainability driven policy
  making and business incentives
• Assist the membership in broadening their
  influence on their respective organizations
• Provide information and assistance on how to
  identify, characterize and manage potential risks
  to human health, the environment, and community
  as a result of exposure to commercial products in
  all phases of their life cycle.
