Newfoundland Consortium
It is always a pleasure to support manufacturers in Atlantic Canada through the challenges they are facing but also to celebrate successes. We are becoming accustomed to ‘change’ requiring the ability to re-adjust; the opportunities of peer networking are powerful as well as a tool for professional development:
- No Need to Re-Invent the Wheel!
- Many minds are better than one.
- There’s Power in Numbers.
- Gain a fresh perspective and greater awareness.
- Make new Connections.

Making Impactful Ergonomics Improvements – MacGyver Style

Join this interactive session featuring the Ontario Disability Employment Network (ODEN) to learn how inclusive workplace practices can strengthen recruitment, retention, and performance in manufacturing — and how EMC’s Supporting Learning Differences in Manufacturing initiative can support employees on the job.
GHG Metrics and Energy Efficiency
An increasing number of manufacturers are being asked by their customers to provide information on the carbon footprint of the products they produce. However, recent analysis conducted by EMC indicates that approximately 70% of manufacturers are not currently measuring or tracking their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, highlighting a significant gap in data visibility across the sector.
