Paul & Caroline In Nepal - p2

The factory where your pashminas and knitwear is made , is pretty nice. It is on the edge of Kathmandu and is in a peaceful valley, with lots of green space. It has an open courtyard and is clean with a friendly atmosphere. We have visited a number of factories in the area which are not as nice.

However, we are working to improve our factory further.

This week we gave all the employees a questionnaire. We made it clear that the factory managers would not see individual questionnaires, and we took them to a friend in Kathmandu to translate the answers for us.

Some interesting issues have arisen from this , and we are working now to implement improvements.

1. We have set up a proper rubbish sorting system.
2. There will now be monthly meetings in each department to keep the staff and management close and communicating well

got to go... power cut in 3 minutes!
