I'm currently having to justify (yay budget season) why we need an EHS team of 2 (at least). Do any of you have metric, literature, experiences in how to justify staffing an EHS team?
A little background on Finch Therapeutics, where I started 6 months ago:
Currently, the EHS "team" is me. We have 3 sites and will be acquiring a 4th next year. We are a relatively small biotech (~200 employees) with R&D, GMP, and Clinical departments.
I appreciate any insight. A preliminary search yielded very little. Thanks!
