Moving the safety curve: what one compliance leader wants you to know about AI

Alan Johnson, Managing Director of Chemical & Workplace Safety at 3E, recently spoke about what’s changed after a decade of chasing the same goal: shifting compliance from reactive to proactive. Despite better tools and bigger budgets, the safety curve flatlined. The conversation is part of Meet the Expert, 3E’s ongoing series with the people building the future of compliance and safety. 

It covers why proactive compliance stayed out of reach for so long, what separates AI that delivers real value from AI that’s mostly hype, and what leaders should ask before trusting any AI-powered compliance solution. The conversation poses a broader question: if AI changes how compliance work gets done, what becomes possible for the people doing it?
