Is the term for safety, environmental protection, and health in English EHS or HSE?
The Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) management system is an effective approach that involves conducting risk analysis in advance to identify the potential hazards and consequences of one’s own activities. By doing so, appropriate preventive measures can be taken to avoid accidents, thereby reducing possible injuries to people, property losses, and environmental pollution. The HSE management system is a modern management approach widely adopted in the international oil industry, and it is also a prerequisite for entering the international market. Safety refers to the efforts made during the labor production process to improve working conditions and eliminate unsafe factors, so that labor production can proceed smoothly while ensuring the health of workers, protecting corporate property from damage, and safeguarding people’s lives. Environment refers to the sum of various activities that are closely related to humans and affect their lives and production activities, as well as all natural forces or influences involved in such activities. Health means being free from physical diseases and maintaining a sound mental state.
It seems there isn’t much difference: some companies call it ESH while others call it SHE
It seems that except for the petroleum industry’s HSE, other industries use EHS for translation

HSE is a management system that integrates Health, Safety, and Environment; hazard identification and risk control are at the core of HSE management.
Whether it is EHS or HSE, both are important; any issue with either of them can cause serious problems. It makes sense to discuss whether it should be EHS or HSE
