Majority of MSMEs in India are doing very little to protect the environment while running their businesses. According to the recent World Bank report `Strengthening Institutions for Sustainable Growth: Country Environmental Analysis for India’ 4.5 million SMEs contribute 40% of industrial production but create 70% of industrial pollution. Report also points out that most of the initiatives towards attaining environmental compliance within Indian Industry do not cover MSMEs.

This alarms of a significant cumulative impact on the environment in terms of unprecedented pressure on natural resources such as land, water, air, soil and forests and the lack of action amongst MSMEs in India, on account of the low levels of awareness and poor knowledge on environmental legislation and obligations.

To address the environmentally compliant growth and initiate green drive among Indian MSMEs, CII is organising an International conference on Environment and MSMEs – “Small is Beautiful and Green” on 7th December 2007 at Hotel Intercontinental, Barakhamba Avenue, New Delhi.

This Conference would cover –

*International and National Environmental Policy Framework for MSMEs
*Legal Requirements for Environmental Compliance in MSMEs
*Impediment and Drivers for Environmental Performance
*Environment Management and MSMEs
*Business Advantages to Green MSMEs
*Takeaway for stakeholders
Eminent speakers from policy, international environmental agencies, industry, judiciary, practice/consultation, and experts from financial institutions, academia, Industry associations are invited to address the conference.

Please confirm your participation through the below ‘Reply Form’ at the earliest.

We look forward to receiving you at this international conference.

The high economic growth in many regions of the world and the resultant job opportunities have thrown up many challenges for industry. The availability of talent has become a key factor in building and sustaining successful organisations.

Manpower shortages are causing unprecedented escalation in the salary levels and leading to lower average stay of an employee in an organisation, leading to high attrition rates. In many cases it is estimated that more than half of the talented employees in companies are either being poached or are themselves looking for greener pastures. The attrition rates are soaring and in many cases are reported to be as high as 20-30% in some sectors. All this is causing a high level of uncertainty and instability in businesses. The problem has to be addressed, not only by HR but also by the top management.

In view of the above, companies have to be proactive in their approach. Quick-fix solutions of retaining employees, through promotions or salary increases, invariably take their own toll on employee morale and thus have to be avoided. The changing needs and aspirations of the work force and the factors causing high attrition need to be understood.

Many companies have already started addressing these issues, e.g. taking steps to become employers of choice, providing good career planning and opportunities, evolving a better work-life balance etc.

I am writing to advise that the CII National Committee on HR & IR is organizing a one-day Seminar on Employee Retention on 4 December 2007 at Delhi. The objective of the Seminar would be to disseminate and share success stories that participants could replicate in their respective companies.

I am writing to cordially invite you, to attend this Seminar as well as nominate concerned officials from your company. Please confirm your participation through the attached Reply Form.

We look forward to receiving your confirmation.
With kind regards,

The heartening fact is that, even though this industry is relatively young; it has been maturing rapidly by enhancing the service offerings and increasing the scale of operations. This exhilarating and accelerated growth coupled with other environment factors like competition, foreign currency fluctuations etc throw its fair share of challenges for the industry.

It has been a constant endeavour of CII to introduce the industry to new and rapidly evolving management concepts and it is against this background that Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in association with Business Process Industry Association Of India (BPIAI) is organising the 3rd Outsourcing Summit 2007 : “Mastering Operational Effectiveness – The Strategic Need” scheduled from 0900 hrs to 1800 hrs on Monday, 10 December, 2007 at the Ball Room, Hotel Sheraton, District Centre, Saket, New Delhi.
