About ESSG
Environmental & Safety Support Group (E&SSG) was founded in 1993 to fill the need of industrial companies who decided to outsource all or part of their EH&S needs. E&SSG has spent the last 7 years broadening our service offering. E&SSG has primarily been adding to and developing our services/systems to expand and offer solutions on a national and global scale.
From the beginning E&SSG was aware of one of the foremost challenges facing industry, which was a cost effective way to manage their chemical inventory. E&SSG noticed that if companies could break down constituents and properties within products, they could match these findings against the EPA and OSHA lists. This would give a company a very clear picture of most of their EH&S requirements. E&SSG was determined to provide an easy-to-use solution. E&SSG would then use the CIA service to determine and generate needed EPA reporting, permitting, site/area specific safety training, site/area specific personal protective equipment requirements, storage requirements, potential monitoring requirements, etc. E&SSG's clients also discovered the additional benefit of the service was the defensible documentation that they now had to show regulatory authorities why they were or were not required to adhere to a certain standard.
