What a difference a few months make. At the start of summer, it looked like COVID-19 might finally behind us. As we all know, that’s not the case.

Cases of COVID-19 have been rising for the past few weeks, thanks to the delta variant, which is now the dominant strain of the virus in the United States.

And although COIVD-19 continues to dominate the safety conversation, it’s only a small piece of what you all do. With that in mind, EHS Today asked more than 900 respondents as part of our National Safety & Salary Survey 2021 what is the biggest non-COVID-19 challenge facing the industry today.

This slideshow offers a representative sampling of those answers.

We want to know how these answers compare to your own work situation. Drop us a line in the comments section below, and keep on doing the good, hard and important work you've been doing all along. We thank you.
