EC Rejects U.S. Oak Proposal
The European Community has again insisted that the U.S. initiate an unmanageable inspection procedure for oak logs bound for Europe. In response the U.S. is standing firm on its original proposal to the EC that oak logs will: o Receive a phyto-sanitary certificate from the U.S. Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) when proper evidence is shown as to the source.
Originate in an oak wilt free county and be so marked.
Furthermore, the U.S. insists that the above procedure is to be considered temporary until the research on an effective fumigation procedure is completed.
The-EC has extended the former regulations (same as above excluding marking) until this month, but is requesting additional certification by State officials and a second marking by APHIS, both of which were rejected previously by the U.S. as being impractical procedures to implement. As such they are being rejected again. Negotiations have been called for by the EC and government officials are planning to visit the Continent.
Start Training At Once
The first day on the job, a new employee is under a shain and likely to remember vividly everything he sees and hears.
Use this to your advantage and emphasize how things are to be done and rules to be followed. Establish the supervisor's authority.
Beware of practices that give indirect messages such as most of the employees arriving 15 or 20 minutes late after the new employee has arrived on time.
