Two Organizations Receive CEO Cancer Gold Standard(TM) Accreditation: GHI and PPD Join Workplace Wellness Leadership Effort
CARY, N.C. (Business Wire EON) April 16, 2008 -- William C. Weldon, chairman and chief executive officer of Johnson & Johnson chairs the CEO Roundtable on Cancer, the nonprofit organization of cancer-fighting CEOs that created the CEO Cancer Gold Standard(TM), in collaboration with The American Cancer Society, NCI-designated comprehensive cancer centers and leading corporate health professionals. "Adopting the Gold Standard is a tribute to the value these CEOs place on their employees," said Weldon. "I hope that the efforts of these and other Gold Standard companies will encourage other corporate leaders to recognize the valuable role they can play in helping us win the battle against cancer. "
The CEO Cancer Gold Standard(TM), calls for companies to evaluate their benefits and culture and take extensive, concrete actions in five key areas of health and wellness to fight cancer in the workplace. To earn Gold Standard accreditation, a company must establish programs to reduce cancer risk by discouraging tobacco use and encouraging physical activity, healthy diet and nutrition; detect cancer at its earliest stages; and provide access to quality care, including the availability of clinical trials.
New York-based GHI becomes the first health insurance provider in the nation to be Gold Standard accredited. GHI and its wholly owned subsidiary, GHI HMO, provide health coverage and administrative services to more than 2.6 million individuals, including active employees, their dependents, and retirees. Wilmington, NC-based PPD is a leading global contract research organization providing discovery, development and post-approval services as well as compound partnering programs to help its clients and partners accelerate the delivery of safe and effective therapeutics to patients. PPD is the fifth North Carolina employer to be CEO Cancer Gold Standard accredited.
The most recent President's Cancer Panel report, "Promoting Healthy Lifestyles: Policy, Program, and Personal Recommendations for Reducing Cancer Risk," identified the CEO Cancer Gold Standard(TM) as an initiative that is helping reverse negative, unhealthy lifestyle trends and creating hope in the fight against cancer for America's workers and their families.
Joining GHI and PPD in this workplace-based effort to eliminate cancer as a public health threat are: American Cancer Society, American Legacy Foundation, AstraZeneca, C-Change, Duke Medicine, Edelman, Enzon Pharmaceuticals, GlaxoSmithKline, Jenner & Block, Johnson & Johnson, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Novartis, OSI Pharmaceuticals, PhRMA, Quintiles Transnational, SAS Institute, The University of North Dakota and Valeant Pharmaceuticals.
About the CEO Roundtable on Cancer
The CEO Roundtable on Cancer was founded in 2001, when former President George H.W. Bush challenged a group of executives, then led by Robert A. Ingram the CEO of Glaxo Wellcome, now GlaxoSmithKline, to "do something bold and venturesome about cancer within your own corporate families." The CEOs responded with the CEO Cancer Gold Standard encouraging its widespread adoption in workplaces across the country.

Scrap Gold Recycling - A Profitable Business Idea?
Scrap gold is often referred to as "a mine above ground"! Recyclers are quick to point out that their tradition of producing valuable metals from unwanted items goes back to ancient civilization. Back then, scrap gold or seized pieces from conquered nations was melted down and remade into new pieces of jewelry or figurines. Today, after scrap gold goes through its melting process there is no difference between its purity and mined gold ingots. The cost of remelting and then refining is still regarded as very small, when compared to the cost of mining. The scrap gold market plays a very important role in the overall world wide gold market scene.
