The Management Techniques and Behavioral Science chapters were also combined in to Management of Risk to reflect the growing importance of broad based risk control strategies. A chapter on the employer's obligations for safety was included to replace the behavioral science techniques chapter and the practical day-to-day engineering application of physics and chemistry techniques was retitled Engineering science.

Download or read book Social Security Law in Context written by Neville S. Harris and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The social security system of Great Britain has reached a crossroads, following the election of a Labour Government promising a 'New Age' of welfare and seemingly prepared to 'think the unthinkable' on welfare reform, at a time when public expenditure on welfare benefits has reached nearlyL100 billion per annum. In 1985 the Conservative's Green Paper on social security reform announced that the benefits system had 'lost its way'. Attempts were made to curb benefits expenditure and reduce welfare dependency, for example through better 'targeting' of needs, the reinforcement ofpersonal and family responsibility, and tighter administrative controls. The ten years from 1988 to 1998 saw the introduction of many new benefit schemes including income support, family credit, the social fund, disability living allowance, incapacity benefit, and jobseeker's allowance as well asthe increasing influence of European Law. Yet the system 'achieves too little' according to the new Government's Green Paper on welfare reform, which promises ' a new contract between the citizen and the Government, based on responsibilities and rights'. The precise form these responsibilities andrights will take remains unknown, although we already have schemes like the New Deal and proposals for stakeholder pensions. Meanwhile, social security law continues to impact upon the lives of millions of citizens.After ten years of major legislative change, and with the prospect of a new direction, this is a time to take stock and to analyse the social and legal impact of the past decade's legislation, case law, and policy, as well as considering possible reforms. The book's approach is to organise this taskthematically, particularly with regard to the social context to social security, through discrete chapters on, for example, gender and the family, disability, housing, old age, and unemployment. It is also opportune to examine the theoretical framework of state welfare and social security,particularly in the context of social rights. The book aims to provide an authoritative, contextual and critical account of how British social security law has evolved, how it operates, its substance, and its social effects.

Download or read book Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD chronic bronchitis and emphysema written by Industrial Injuries Advisory Council and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-11-21 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Industrial Injuries Advisory Council (IIAC) has completed a review of occupational coverage for the prescribed disease chronic bronchitis and emphysema (now encompassed by the term chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)). Following reviews of the literature, consultation with experts in several areas, consideration of reviews commissioned by independent academic bodies and public consultation, the Council recommends that the current terms of prescription remain for chronic bronchitis and emphysema in underground coal workers, for byssinosis in cotton workers, and for emphysema in workers exposed to cadmium fume. It recommends an extension for chronic bronchitis and emphysema to include exposure to coal dust in screen workers employed at the surface of coal mines. Workers should have been employed for the equivalent of 40 years and qualifying exposures should have occurred before 1983. IIAC has also considered prescription for other occupational groups including cotton textile workers, welders, grain workers and workers exposed to silica or isocyanates. There was insufficient evidence to recommend prescription or amendment to prescription for any other occupational categories, but the IIAC will continue to monitor emerging evidence.
