An independent EHS reference, built for the field.
EHS Community is a free, practitioner-first resource for the people responsible for workplace safety. No paywall, no vendor agenda — just clear, sourced guidance organised around how safety professionals actually work.
The reference we wanted as safety people
Good safety information is scattered — buried in regulatory text, spread across dozens of sites, or locked behind a subscription. EHS Community pulls it together: each topic researched against the primary standards and written to be immediately useful on the floor, not just technically correct.
We're starting with two high-hazard sectors — automotive manufacturing & assembly and welding & fabrication — and adding more over time. Everything here is free, and every claim points back to a source you can check.
Made for the people on the hook for safety
Safety managers & EHS coordinators
Running a program day to day and looking for reliable guidance you don't have to fact-check line by line.

Running a shop without a full-time EHS department, who still have to get the fundamentals right.

ExploreThe principles behind every page
Independent
Not affiliated with any manufacturer, vendor, or trade association. No sponsored content, no product placement — where a control like matting is discussed, it's framed as one option among several.
Cited to primary sources
Every load-bearing claim links back to a primary source — OSHA, NIOSH, ANSI, NFPA, AWS, ASTM, the ESD Association, or CCOHS — so you can verify it yourself.
Practitioner-first
Written for the people doing the work: answer-first, framed around the hierarchy of controls, and practical over academic.
Honest about limits
This is general information, not legal advice. We'd rather flag something as unverified than overstate it, and the current text of any cited standard always governs.
A note on scope. EHS Community provides general safety information for educational purposes. It is not legal advice and is not a substitute for a qualified EHS professional or your own regulatory counsel. Standards change and jurisdictions differ — where a specific standard is cited, its current official text governs.
Stay ahead of safety.
