미얀마 노동조합, EU 미얀마 봉제산업 개선사업 반발

[애드쇼파르] 미얀마 노동조합들이 EU에서 진행하는 봉제산업 개선사업은 노동자에게 혜택이 돌아가지 않고 국가관리위원회만 인정하는 꼴이 될 것이라는 주장을 펼치고 있다고 한다. EU 상공회의소와 독일에 본사를 둔 Esaqua Group은 향후 4년동안 미얀마 봉제 산업 개선사업을 위해 여러 이해관계자들과 협업하여 MADE in Myanmar 사업을 진행할 계획이다. 이 사업 예산으로 300만 유로와 다양한 의류 브랜드들의 추가 기부를 통해 예산을 추가 확보해 나갈 계획이다. 하지만 현재 유럽으로 피신한 미얀마 노동조합중 하나인 IWFM 회장 MS. Khaing Zar Aung은 이 사업은 ILO(국제노동기구)가 국가관리위원회를 합법적인 정권으로 인정하는 것 뿐만 아니라 노동권 침해도 은폐하게 될…

Any maintenance that is organized, documented, and scheduled before asset or equipment failure occurs is known as planned maintenance. A simple way to put it is that planned maintenance is proactive rather than reactive. That means maintenance that is scheduled in response to an equipment breakdown is not considered planned maintenance. The underlying importance of planned maintenance is that it reduces your maintenance costs, equipment downtime, and yields a better return on investment.

I was commissioned to create a cover and feature illustration for Facilitate magazine, the official magazine for the IWFM (Institute of Workplace and Facilities Management). The feature focuses on recognising neurodiversity in the workplace, exploring the strengths and advantages of a neurodiverse workforce. This can include people on the autistic spectrum, dyslexia, ADHD and Tourette's syndrome. The article goes on to discuss how businesses can support and accommodate neurodivergent staff. © Zara Picken 2021 www.zarapicken.com

International Wix Farmers Market (IWFM)

Launched in 1877 by African-Caribbean wizard Obadiah Lennox, Indian wizard Maneet Khanna, and Chinese witch Wei Ning, it started as just a small produce stand.

Since then it grew into a full world market by the 20th century.

With 187 flags of countries around the world were charmed and decorate the ceilings, greeting shoppers as they enter the market. With fresh produce, meats, seafood, breads, beer and wine, cheese, delis and a restaurants. It also as several flower shops inside as well.

The IWFM is seven stories, the bottom level was the market with produce from all over. The first, second and third levels are the actual market. The third and fourth floor are resturants and dinning halls. Boutiques, shops, and offices are located on the fifth floor. The sixth and seventh are residential units. 

A hidden oasis among the wizarding community. Many wixen who were homesick or expats frequent the IWF Market. Located in South, London England.

The Hogwarts students and staff who have knowledge of the market usually on attend on weekend trips to Hogsmeade. There is an entrance to the Market from Hogsmeade Post Office, so if anyone needed to send anything it is quite easy access, also Mr. Quiller was quite fond of treats the student gave him on their way back.

Facilities Managers: Sustainability is your job too

NEWS FEATURES FIRE & SECURITY SUBMISSIONS RESOURCES

By Cormac Crossan, Commercial Real Estate Business Development Director at Schneider Electric UK&I

Many of us have heard the staggering fact that the buildings and construction sector accounts for almost 40% of global energy-related CO2 emissions. But did you know that up to 80% of a building’s energy use, and therefore carbon footprint, results from its operations?

This may seem daunting at first. But it also presents a huge opportunity for facilities managers (FMs) to play a major role in creating green buildings, driving value for customers and occupants, and closing the gap between well-intended green building design, and the often less sustainability reality of building operations.

After all, as building end-users grow increasingly serious about sustainability, they’ll look to FMs to help identify where they can make a difference. To satisfy these stakeholders and meet environmental KPIs, FMs must prepare now by embracing smart building technology.

The current issue with buildings

To be truly sustainable, buildings, both new and old, need to change. Over 70 countries, including large polluters like China, the US, and the European Union, have already set net-zero targets, covering around 76% of global emissions. Now, there’s increasing pressure from governments and consumers on building owners to do the same. In fact, major built-up areas like London, New York, and Tokyo have already committed to net-zero by 2030—with building owners potentially facing steep penalties if they don’t comply.

An important place to start is the building performance gap. In terms of energy efficiency, buildings often don’t perform anywhere near as well once in use as they were predicted to in their design stage. Some buildings can consume up to ten times more energy than their compliance calculations expected.

One of the largest factors contributing to this gap is a lack of monitoring and feedback following occupancy. Without the right tools, inefficiencies are rarely identified, and occupant behaviour isn’t corrected. So, what tools do FMs need to close this performance gap in both new and retrofitted facilities?

Install energy management technologies

The struggle for energy efficiency has become a well-established global issue. As a result, the market for energy management solutions is now similarly mature and poses a low technology risk for building owners looking to reduce energy costs while boosting stakeholder satisfaction.

But while 70% of respondents to the IWFM 2021 Sustainability survey highlighted energy and carbon footprint reduction as a building priority, 62% said they don’t have access to the data needed to help clients meet their facility sustainability objectives. Digital is key in bridging this gap.

Analytics monitoring services allow FMs to uncover key insights into a building’s operations by continuously scanning its energy systems, highlighting inefficiencies, and identifying areas of optimisation to be actioned by stakeholders. These digital tools can also allocate a cost to any faults and generate comprehensive reports that offer a complete picture of the building, its systems and assets, and performance against KPIs.

Any green technology solutions being considered should offer a three-prong approach. Then, the business, the occupants, and the operators can all take steps towards stronger sustainability—and other efficiencies, too.

Leverage building optimisation software

Workplace management systems also help FMs to monitor and optimise occupancy characteristics, like space utilisation or lighting levels. First, these digital systems collect and analyse important building data. Then, they send the curated analytics to a central dashboard, and begin adapting the workplace to improve occupant well-being, enhance output, and reduce operating costs. These are all common issues that busy FMs wouldn’t have the time to analyse themselves – but digital optimisation tools speed up the process and free up time to actually make the necessary changes.

For instance, these systems can instantly identify underutilised meeting rooms, helping occupants free up valuable space and reduce applicable energy consumption. Or, they can monitor temperature and humidity and automatically adjust HVAC levels, boosting occupant comfort for greater productivity and a potential reduction in energy waste. With these management systems in use, UK offices can expect huge returns on investments.

Efficiency is the new competitive advantage

If FMs want to improve internal operations, developing an optimisation strategy is now crucial. And with access to a range of technologies, FMs and building owners can instantly act on facility insights and embed sustainability within their organisations. The gap between building design and operation is too clear to ignore, and with the digital tools available today, there’s no reason it can’t be closed.

2050 is fast approaching. With almost half of all companies already setting and implementing clear net-zero strategies, the best time to join them was yesterday. The next best time? Today.
