Asia Task Forces: Register Now!

Several EICC companies have indicated their interest in joining the new Asia Program task forces to address specific issues in the region. Please register as soon as possible to participate.

• Employee Health & Welfare Task Force: EICC members are concerned about employee health and welfare, and are particularly concerned about workplace suicide in the region. This Task Force will help EICC members understand societal and other factors that affect employee health and welfare. The Task Force will identify experts in the region who can help the industry develop a better understanding of the unique challenges for employers and employees. It will also identify resources outside the industry, such as service organizations and government agencies, that may be able to help. Companies should contact Brad Cameron to register their Asia-based personnel.
   
• Environment Task Force: EICC members are also concerned about environmental issues in Asia. This Task Force will collaborate with the Environmental Sustainability Work Group, and will focus on pollution and environmental sustainability in southern China. Companies are asked to designate Asia-based personnel for the Task Force who have responsibility in their companies for environmental compliance or environmental sustainability practices. Contact Brad Cameron to register.
