Don't Tread on My Shoes: California Proposition 65 and Other Product Safety Issues Date: Wednesday, February 3, 2010 Cal Prop 65 is becoming the symbol for product safety compliance. But will Prop 65 be the standard going forward? And if so, how could it affect the way you do business? Proposition 65 is a California law that requires warning labels on all products (not just children's products) sold in California that contain lead, phthalates and other chemicals. Join AAFA and its footwear technology partner Intertek Consumer Goods for an in-depth discussion about all that Prop 65 entails, the possibility of other states and the federal government following California's lead and what you can expect if they do. AAFA is the premiere national trade association representing apparel, footwear and other sewn products companies, and their suppliers, which compete in the global market. Representing approximately 80 percent of wholesale apparel sales of U.S. companies, it is one of the strongest national trade associations and includes manufacturers of allied needle trade products, as well. Its membership has plants located in almost every state in the union. Activities include advocacy toward Congress and federal agencies, as well as strong programs in economics, education, technology, government affairs, marketing, communications and industry relations. Industry executives pool their resources and talent as part of AAFA's programs, committees and services. Register now for this seminar!
