Green Manufacturing Maturity Assessment
As part of EMC’s Energy & Green Manufacturing Consortium, several EMC members have asked for help in assessing, gauging and benchmarking their sustainability efforts, with a focus on identifying areas for energy and emissions management, opportunities for process efficiencies, Green manufacturing and CleanTech adoption.
Chaos or Calm?
Your facility’s vulnerability to different risks will vary. For example, wildfire risk depends on factors such as location, surrounding vegetation, and building materials.
Women in Manufacturing with Lilly Wood
Welder/fabricator Lilly Wood credits supportive guidance at critical moments for helping her discover and thrive in a profession she might never have otherwise considered. Her future changed course when she was introduced to welding through a workplace visit. That single day at Charlottetown Metal Products sparked a passion that continues today.
Re-Assessing First Aid Programs
Keeping first aid programs up to date is critical. According to OHS Canada[i], “A key occupational health and safety (OHS) activity for any organization to undertake is to continually assess and improve first aid programs… It is important to avoid a “one and done” approach and instead understand how the shifting complexities of the environment could impact first aid plans, supplies, equipment, and training needs.”
