FDA Calorie Disclosure Update
A small group of OneShow attendees listened intently
to a calorie disclosure update given by Dr. Claudine
Kavanaugh, an interdisciplinary scientist in the Office
of Foods and Veterinary Medicine at the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration. Kavanaugh discussed a few
of the FDA calorie disclosure posting rules that will be
enforced in December of 2016 and appropriate ways
to meet the requirements. For the full list of current
calorie disclosure rules, visit www.namavoice.org .
Advancements in technology are changing
the way current generations work. In fact,
many office spaces today look rather
different than they did 30 years ago. Or at
least they should. That's the message Julie
Seitz, director of Workplace 2020 for The
Coca-Cola Company discussed during her
keynote speech. Laptops and WiFi make
it easy for many employees to work from
anywhere. In order to get them back into
the office, some companies are recreating
spaces, like breakrooms, that are well-lit
and modern with access to WiFi, electrical
outlets for devices, comfortable seating
and many food options. She addressed the
importance of working with locations to
create a cafe-like feel.
