All, There will be a Northeast Product Safety Society meeting tomorrow, February 25, at EMC Corporation's Customer Briefing Center in Hopkinton, MA. A social hour with light refreshments will begin at 7:00 PM and the technical meeting will start at 7:30 PM. This month’s presentation will be an open discussion on the RoS and WEEE directives. Bring along anything you may have such as any presentation or reference materials or speakers to provide supplier viewpoints and activities. Does anyone have a corporate plan to comply with these European directives before the August 2005 WEEE and July 2006 RoS mandatory compliance dates? A brief description of these directives along with links to many of the recent ESAC presentation materials is now available at the NPSS site at http://www.nepss.org. The EASC presentation material is very extensive and available at http://www.nepss.org/presentations/aESACspeakerindexFeb2004.html. You may want to review these materials prior to tomorrow’s meeting. If you will be in the area, please feel free to join us as NPSS membership or advanced notice is not required.
If you or anyone you know would like to give a product safety technical presentation, please contact Paul Smith, our meeting scheduler, by phone at (508) 482-7034 or by email at [email protected]. A technical presentation should be 45 to 60 minutes in duration and be related to product safety. Although the presentation may reference your company and it’s services, the presentation must not be simply company advertising. We would also appreciate any slides or handout materials be made available for posting on the NPSS web site. Releasing presentation materials for posting is desired but not a requirement to make a presentation. The NPSS jobs bulletin has been updated with five new jobs. The Jobs located within New England are yellow highlighted. The jobs bulletin is available on the NPSS web site at http://www.nepss.org/jobs/jobs.htm. If you have any positions available or would like to post your resume, please contact Dave Lorusso, our job master, through the jobs bulletin.
