Karl G. Albrecht, director of Environment, Health and Safety for Fairchild Semiconductor will be sworn in as the 2006-2007 President, taking the helm against the backdrop of significant changes in the semiconductor/high technology industry. With industry downsizing (1) Converting mainframe and mini-based systems to client/server LANs. (2) To reduce equipment and associated costs by switching to a less-expensive system. (jargon) downsizing in the U.S. marked by fab closures, a maturing of the industry and of EHS EHS Environmental Health and Safety EHS Early Head Start (pre-school program) EHS Extremely Hazardous Substance (EPA) EHS Environmental Health Services EHS Exchange Hosted Services engineering, and reductions in EHS staffs, the work of SESHA continues to evolve. "Among the biggest challenges for the industry today are addressing worldwide green initiatives, banned and restricted substances, and voluntary programs to reduce global warming global warming, the gradual increase of the temperature of the earth's lower atmosphere as a result of the increase in greenhouse gases since the Industrial Revolution. gas emissions," Albrecht stated. "SESHA members are under enormous pressure to maintain EHS performance while constantly reducing costs and increasing productivity--necessities for companies competing in today's global market. SESHA's focus is on the specific needs of this unique industry sector, therefore we can address these challenges, helping members and their companies succeed in this ever-changing environment," he added.
