“I really enjoy attending the Council's network meetings, particularly the HR Sub-council and the EHS group. The topics are always timely, the presenters knowledgeable and the other participants are also from manufacturing companies that face very similar issues to my company. I never leave a meeting thinking that I wasted my time.”

Eileen Larocca, HR & EHS Manager, Alcoa Fastening Systems.
