The association between manual handling operations and pain in the hands and arms in the context of the 2018 BIBB/BAuA Employment Survey

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Manual handling operations (MHO) are tasks performed by hand that require repetitive and forceful hand and arm movements. MHO are currently performed in many workplaces in skilled and unskilled jobs in the production and service sectors.

A bookshelf on occupational health and safety. [PDF]

American Journal of Public Health, 1975
The effects of exposure to toxic substances and poor conditions of work on human health have long been known. Hippocrates' description of lead poisoning, Pliny's use of sheep bladders as respiratory masks in the year 1 A.D., and the descriptions of the health hazards of mining by Paracelsus, Agricola, and Ramazzini are evidence of this.

Tracheal epithelium cell volume responses to hyperosmolar, isosmolar and hypoosmolar solutions: relation to epithelium-derived relaxing factor (EpDRF) effects

Frontiers in Physiology, 2013
In asthmatic patients, inhalation of hyperosmolar saline or D-mannitol (D-M) elicits bronchoconstriction, but in healthy subjects exercise causes bronchodilation. Hyperventilation causes drying of airway surface liquid (ASL) and increases its osmolarity.

REACH and occupational health and safety [PDF]

Environmental Sciences Europe, 2014
The EU legislation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) aims to improve the level of human health and environmental protection which has also implications for occupational health and safety. The authors describe their own subjective definition of ‘the ideal REACH world’ from an occupational point of view as a ...
