Lets Cut Out
Dermatitis |
 |
You
might be surprised to find out that the skin is the
biggest organ in your body. Although you might not think of
as an organ, your skin is
very important. It covers and protects everything inside
your body. However we can expose our skin, especially the
hands, to chemicals, epoxy resins or oils which can lead
to increased wear and tear of the skin, or the development
of an allergy to a substance. Dermatitis or eczema
usually affects the hands or sometimes the face. It can
force you to change your occupation. Read on and see how
you can help prevent the most common occupational diseases
of dermatitis and eczema from interacting with you.

Women In Construction |
|
Construction work appeals to many people. It offers varied
assignments, a chance to work outdoors, good pay and a
sense of accomplishment. Over the next number of years,
the 'face' of the construction industry will
change. Its workforce will become more diverse. It will
include more women workers and workers with different
backgrounds and experiences. Read on to learn about health
and safety issues found in such a diverse workforce.

Q&A section with Paul Tierney
|
|
 |
Paul,
Our engineers carry out service, maintenance, calibration,
testing, etc on laboratory equipment in all types of
laboratories all over Ireland, including hospitals,
pharmaceutical companies etc. We want to ensure that, as
an employer, we address all our legal requirements
regarding employee health check programmes we may need to
have in place. Could you let us know what regulations we
need to adhere to - including any codes of practice that
are available, medical tests the engineers may need to
undertake at regular intervals, etc. and relevant
information covering this issue.
