State-specific legislation
and mandates have the potential to place companies at a significant
competitive disadvantage to their out-of-state counterparts, in terms of
increasing the cost of the product both through the direct placement of a
fee on said products or through costly compliance procedures that will need
to be followed. This program is designed to enable your managers, compliance
executives, legal, environmental and facilities professionals to better
understand and comply, as well as to determine how your company can best
position itself in the global marketplace.
Topics
include:
- Recent revisions to the WEEE and
RoHS Directives, focusing on enforcement, exemption, coordination (or lack thereof) among Member
States. How to ensure your products are not stopped, or worse,
rejected, at the border of an important overseas market?
- Provide an update on developments relating to the EUP regulation and discuss
its potential impacts on companies
- WEEE/RoHS
“copycats” in other jurisdictions (e.g., China, Korea, California,
Rhode Island, New York City, and New Jersey). What this means for the
high-tech industry?
- Overview
on the REACH Regulation and all requirements for downstream users.
Importers of articles into the EU will have to notify certain
substances contained in these articles. Some chemicals might be
subject to authorization for use in the EU.

This seminar is highly recommended for all companies that sell or have

enable your managers, compliance executives, legal departments and
environmental and facilities professionals to better understand and comply
with environmental directives. We strongly encourage you to bring your
business and channel partners with you, since working together on these
new requirements is essential to your company's success. |
