AAAmed.cn: A Professional B2B E-commerce Platform for Medical Devices

0

A new online B2B e-commerce platform-AAAmed.cn was launched on October in China. It only focuses on medical devices, and provides services for Chinese wholesalers and millions of buyers around the world.

AAAmed.cn

In recent years, with the rising geriatric population, the growing prevalence of chronic conditions, and growth in surgical procedures, the global medical devices market starts booming. As a result, many people are manufacturing and sourcing medical devices. Though there are many comprehensive platforms for that industry, there isn’t any professional B2B trading platform for buyers and suppliers.

 

To urgently address the market need, AAAmed.cn was launched last month. It is the Chinese leading platform for global wholesale trade of medical devices. In a way, AAAmed.cn is just like Alibaba, both providing trading services for buyers and suppliers. But AAAmed.cn only focuses on medical devices, and mainly offers professional information and services to Chinese suppliers and foreign buyers.

 

Since the birth of AAAmed.cn, it has successively launched online platform, offline exhibition, Chinese supplier catalogues and so on. With online and offline efforts, AAAmed.cn has developed many communication channels for suppliers and buyers. Besides, it has a good knowledge of each country’s policy on the import of medical devices, so it can ensure suppliers and buyers trade better and safer.

 

In the past months, AAAmed.cn has attracted more than 500 suppliers and manufacturers, who provide 14 medical devices categories and 69 sub-categories. It is said their products are high quality and competitive price. Meanwhile, more than 1,000 foreign buyers have registered AAAmed.cn, and they have submitted above 300 RFQs to source their expected medical devices.

Questions to Ask When Crafting a Drug and Alcohol Policy

0

Morton Grove, Illinois: InOut Labs today announced that they are helping employers to adapt their substance abuse policies to deal with changing state laws regarding legalized marijuana.

 

Every employer needs a drug and alcohol policy, whether or not actual testing is performed. A policy not backed up by testing, however, is at risk of failure. If there is no testing, there is no deterrence.

 

Who will be tested — and when?

This question is one of many that employers must answer when crafting a drug and alcohol policy.

 

Developing a drug and alcohol policy begins with a concern about safety or productivity, and a decision that there will be zero tolerance for substance use in the workplace. And then defining what “zero tolerance” means.

 

“A zero tolerance policy does not necessarily mean workers are automatically terminated with a positive drug test,” says Tim Thoelecke, president of InOut Labs, “but it does imply that there will be consequences. Consequences can include required counseling, temporary suspension, eventual termination, and follow up testing.”

Federally regulated employees must be tested under regulations set forth by the U.S. Department of Transportation. In DOT and non-DOT safety-sensitive positions immediate termination is often the consequence, but many employers offer ”second chance” or “last chance” agreements in an effort to work with employees they want to keep, as long as they are willing to accept counseling and treatment.

Ask the right questions to form your drug and alcohol policy

  • Will a drug and alcohol testing program be implemented?
  • Are any employees covered by DOT requirements?
  • What are the expected policy outcomes? Improved safety and productivity? Lower workers comp premiums?
  • What are management expectations for employee behavior when it comes to drugs and alcohol?
  • Under what conditions will testing take place? Pre-employment? Post-accident? Reasonable suspicion? Random?
  • What drugs will be tested?
  • How will you deal with medical marijuana? Recreational marijuana?
  • Who determines whether a reasonable suspicion situation exists?
  • Will Supervisor training be required?
  • What is the basis for employee selection for random testing (i.e. by department, unit, job description, location, etc.)?
  • What are the consequences should an employee refuse to be tested? 
  • Employee Assistance Programs, counseling services, and who pays?
  • Consequences for failing a test.
  • What is the company policy on alcohol and drugs at workplace functions like office parties and other company functions?
  • Will you require a retest for a negative-dilute test result?
  • How is accident/incident information documented?
  • What is the policy for an employee returning to work after completing counseling or treatment?

Is this really necessary for a small business? Yes.

Developing a drug and alcohol policy is important for all sizes of businesses. Safety risks exist in the five-person business as well as the 500-person enterprise. And it’s much more painful for the smaller business.

A well-written policy protects the employer and employees and ensures legal and personnel requirements are met and integrated with the values of the organization.

Efficiency and consistency in your drug and alcohol policy

Written policies demonstrate professionalism as well as an interest in safety for all employees. And confidentiality is particularly important when administering a drug and alcohol program.

Written substance policies give teeth to enforcement of workplace rules and drug and alcohol policies provide a framework for accountability and for measuring worker performance.

“Employers are required to provide a safe place to work for all employees,” says Thoelecke, “and employees also have responsibilities to follow safety procedures.”

InOut Labs provides drug testing services that support the policies and procedures put into place by employers. As a national provider of both DOT and non-DOT drug testing services, InOut Labs provides employers with greater legal defensibility and access to industry best practices.

InOut Labs also provides employers with

Supervisor Training

Lucky & Prince Premium Dog Sausage from Germany hits the UK market

0

Lucky & Prince has unveiled a new range of ‘eco-friendly’ human grade meat products for dogs.

The “Raw to Go” range is said to offer the best alternative to raw feeding and support healthy dog growth and development at competitive pricing. The Lucky & Prince range is straight from the heart of Bavaria in Germany, using only the freshest, premium ingredients in clever packaging that is good for the environment.

The range includes tasty ingredient combinations:
Beef with Potatoes, Apples and Cottage
Lamb with Carrots and Potatoes
Poultry with Carrots and Rice
Venison with Zucchini

Founder and owner, Philip Staudacher, said: “My best friend and partner in crime breeds British bulldogs, who are known for the delicate digestion and fragile health. He complained that he did not have access to nutritious food on the go when he was taking his dogs to shows. So, we did our research. We wanted wholesome, nutritious and clean fuss free dogs’ food with as little packaging as possible.


“We worked on the recipe with a dog nutritionist, the dog producer and developed the sausage to do away with cans and any trace of tinny flavour in our food. All of our ingredients are ethically and locally sourced to avoid long transportation.”

Philip said that the name Lucky & Prince was inspired by the names of two of the bulldogs bred by his friend.
All Lucky and Prince products are made in Bavaria, Germany. For more information you can visit www.luckyandprince.com.

Dream Big Empire Brings you “Wadd Up Doe” by Blacc Cuzz”

0

Pennsylvania – November 2019 – Pittsburgh native artist Blacc Cuzz delivers an anthemic and grasping trap rap single, ‘Wadd Up Doe’. The track contains uplifting chords, a speaker-rattling bassline, a catchy melody, and an uplifting, clutching vocal performance. The single starts with the catchy melody that resonates throughout the entirety of the track. The track then proceeds to introduce the main beat with the emotion-packed flow. Undoubtedly, the track can impact the listener as it contains every inspiring element for a trap rap track. The hard 808s and beat give Blacc Cuzz’s flow a grand energetic feeling. ‘Wadd Up Doe’ will take the listeners into a musical journey with the beats, the deep, original vocals, and the well-rounded production.

‘Wadd Up Doe’ is what the streets needed. Blacc Cuzz is as true as they come. As a man and an artist, Blacc has experienced his share of trials and misfortunes. Elements like drug dealing, death, jail and more, compose only a fraction of his background. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, Blacc’s full story is one of triumph over odds that have caused lesser men to fold. That’s where the hit single ‘Wadd Up Doe’ was born.

About Blacc Cuzz

Blacc Cuzz’s musical influences come courtesy of the guys from his neighborhood who served as big homies. Artists like B.G., Soulja Slim, Yo Gotti, Boosie Badazz, Gucci Mane and Jeezy inform his sound like a rapper. “A lot of my old heads that were around, that’s the music they used to ride to,” Blacc says. “So when we jumped off the porch, that’s the music that helped us keep the structure as a young gangster. Those artists were talking that shit we were living.” His rhymes are dreams mixed with reality. The hard-nosed tales of making a name for himself in the streets are what attract listeners to his growing musical catalog. Blacc doesn’t pull any punches when speaking on the highs and lows of days gone by. Yet, his approach isn’t all dark and dreary. He’s just as optimistic about the good days he’s having now and the bright future he has ahead in music.

In an industry craving authenticity, Blacc Cuzz is as true as they come. As a man and an artist, Blacc has experienced his fair share of trials and tribulations. Elements like death, jail, drug dealing, compose only a fraction of his background. Born in Pittsburgh, PA, Blacc’s full story is one of triumph over chances that have caused lesser men to fail.

Blacc’s earliest intentions for music didn’t include him being an artist. Instead, his first incursion began when he invested hundreds of thousands in another local artist. While the situation didn’t pan out as expected, Blacc soon realized there was no better fit for the type of artist he wanted for his record label, Dream Big Empire, than the man in the mirror. Going on tour with Eightball and MJG opened Blacc’s eyes to a potential career as a musician. Blacc signed himself as an artist and committed to figuring out the music business as an independent MC and CEO. Armed with a charming smile and magnetic personality, he’s made fans out of the people. The raw honesty and captivating narratives are what keep people hooked to Blacc’s work. His main goal as an artist is a simple one: “I want to be known as the new voice of the streets.”

These are the real-life experiences that shape chapters in life. Blacc’s using his experiences in Pittsburgh’s seedier neighborhoods as fuel for bold beats and flows.
