description:

Anti-Fainting Campaign: BFC has produced a number of innovative materials (Brochures, Good Practice Sheets, Calendars, Audio-Visuals etc) aimed at addressing the mass- fainting epidemic of 2012. The Experts by Experience is one of the anti-fainting campaign activities designed to prevent or minimize fainting incidents. Other initiatives include the Cambodian Television Network comedy show on fainting issues, a workers’ calendar with monthly health and safety tips, and the One Change campaign. The One Change Campaign 2012 has been designed in order to help Cambodia’s garment factories reduce the likelihood of fainting in the workplace. Factory management are encouraged to make at least one of the suggested changes in order to improve the working environment generally and to combat the causes of fainting such as poor hygiene, nutrition, heat stress and poor worker-management communications. Factories who successfully adopt one or more of these recommended changes were awarded the special status of a ‘One Change Factory' and earned the right to brandish the ‘One Change’ logo on their branding materials. These initiatives have been supported by the buyers, by GMAC, and the factories (BFC website 2012).
