The Eastern Rizal Miners Association (ERMA) promoted community safety through an emergency awareness and preparedness seminar while also educating its participants the importance of the quarry sector in the Philippine economy.

A total of 245 participants from different companies and 25 barangays in Rizal attended the organized seminar which is part of ERMA’s 23rd anniversary at the Ynares Event Center in Antipolo, Rizal last April 4.

“We need our people to lead and embrace change. It’s going to be about increased productivity, efficiency and being more sustainable and responsive in a social and environmental sense. It’s about embracing disruption, not fearing it,” said ERMA’s president Angelita Lee through EINPresswire.com.

Disaster Risk Reduction and Management doctor, Teodoro T. Esguerra talked about the need to be prepared even before a calamity strikes.

“Disaster preparedness is a skill that shouldn’t just be taught in our workplaces. It should start from the home. For a country that is scourged with yearly calamities, it is crucial that we are equipped with life skills in the most literal sense of the word,” Esguerra explained.

Quarrying was described as a vital part of our country’s economy especially with the current administration’s Build! Build! Build! Program.

According to ERMA, quarry products provide the basis for transport network and for water and sewage system. Without it, we would not have the stone, gravel and sand that go into any form of construction.

The miners’ association added that President Rodrigo Duterte’s ambition to complete infrastructure projects estimated to worth P 8-9 trillion within 2017-2022 is only achievable if players involved in the supply chain are physically and mentally fit, equipped to perform their tasks in a safe environment, and are professionally trained – ERMA is one of the organizations that try to do their part in helping make this vision a reality.
