myEHS
Environment, Health and Safety

Underpinning all of the framework, providing support for all programmes and enabling collection and analysis of the data in this report is a state of the art intranet system that we have called the myEHS Community web site or myEHS for short. It has three main functions:

  • It is primarily a comprehensive EHS information management system that provides sites with tools for managing all of their EHS responsibilities and measuring their progress.
  • It is the repository for EHS Standards, Guidelines, Tools and other EHS information as well as the central point for EHS-related announcements, news and listings of events as well as a place to share good EHS practices and ideas.
  • It is the central collection point for EHS data provided in this report and used by GSK and its business units to monitor progress and drive continuous improvement.

In addition to serving as the central collection point for the data, myEHS functionality includes:

  • Creation and distribution of MSDS.
  • Eco-design, occupational hygiene, hazard assessment and other tools.
  • For sites that are currently ISO certified or that are in the process of ISO certification, myEHS provides all of the support functionality needed for the required documentation and EHS management.

Structurally, myEHS is a combination of two commercial software packages, several collaborative working tools used within GSK and other information technologies.
