Thesis (MScEng) Stellenbosch University, 2014<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis brings together productivity and risk assessments through innovative design, development and evaluation of a unique system for retrieving and analysing data. In the past, although the link between them is well-documented, these assessments have largely been dealt with as separate antagonist entities. A broad evaluation of the existing traditional and technological support systems has been conducted to identify suitable methodologies along with a common technological platform for automation. The methodo

Abstract:

The importance ascribed by a nation to the subject of occupational safety and health is reflective in the growth, sustainability and the national development of an economy. Besides the economic benefits stood to be derived from an occupational safety and health structure that is constantly nurtured, there is also the human rights issue. Less industrialised nations still grapple with fundamental challenges brought about by occupational health and safety, challenges which more advanced nations seem to effortlessly address. Nigeria falls into the former category, hence, the interest of this thesi

Abstract:

Auditing in health care has been recommended by many national organisations to improve patient safety and quality of care, despite inconclusive evidence to support its effectiveness. In South Africa, the National Core Standards for health establishments in South Africa (NCS) was published in 2011. The NCS recognises that staff are vital to ensuring that the health system delivers quality health care and therefore require protection against the risk of injury, infection and other occupational hazards, consistent with the South African Occupational Health and Safety act of 1993. The aim of this

Abstract:

As a theme for my Master's Thesis I chose the theme of problems which are connected with application of Occupational Safety and Health Protection principles in practice. The aim of the Master's Thesis is to outline possible problems which we could come across while implementing the Occupational Safety and Health Protection policy and to map a major part of important legal enactments covering sphere of Occupational Safety and Health Protection. The Master's Thesis is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical one. In the theoretical part I at first briefly outline historical development

Abstract:

The primary purpose of this study is to identify those people at most risk of being bullied at work. While much research is being conducted on school bullying, little has been conducted on workplace bullying. Using data gathered from a 2004 study conducted by the National Opinion Research Center for the General Social Survey, which included a Quality of Work Life (QWL) module for the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), linear regressions indicated significant findings. As predicted, workers in lower level occupations, as ranked by prestige scoring developed at Nation

Abstract:

The significance of risk is growing in many Western societies, a phenomenon linked to increasing individualism, personal choice, and outcome uncertainty in multiple spheres of life. Despite being healthier and more physically protected from harm than any previous society, a serious concern for safety and risk control is emerging as a defining characteristic of modern social life. Within the context of a risk-averse society, this thesis investigates the nature and relevance of risk in natural resource recreation and tourism settings.

OCD can be either due to irritants or allergens or a combination of these two agents. Irritant contact dermatitis (ICD) tends to be more common than allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). Skin diseases affect the financial, psychosocial and occupational lives of people. Productivity in the work place is detrimentally affected.

Abstract:

The introduction of the National OHS Strategy 2002-2012 into Australia signified a new direction in occupational health and safety (OHS) policy development. It represented the first policy in which Australia’s institutional stakeholders had reached a formal agreement to achieve targeted reductions in injuries and fatalities across Australian workplaces. However, despite its significance, the National OHS Strategy remains largely unexplored throughout the literature, as have national OHS strategies in other countries. This research seeks to contribute to narrowing this gap in knowledge by inves

Abstract:

Annoyance due to relatively high levels of sound and noise, above 50 dB, has been well documented in noise assessment literature. The potential for annoyance or disturbance from low amplitude sound, below 50 dB to the threshold of an individual’s hearing, is not as well documented. The thesis presents a new approach to the measurement and assessment of intrusive noise and low amplitude sound. Acoustical and sound quality measures are integrated with measures of loudness, pitch, dissonance and tonality to provide physical measures of sound. Individual amenity is assessed with respect to persona

Since the fungi, especially their spores, are comparatively more resistant than bacteria. In this study, we assessed antifungal effects of the nano-metals (Ag, Cu and Ni) loaded titanium dioxide (TiO2) on Aspergillus niger spore. 　　The antifungal experiments were conducted under four situations: in the darkness (Dark), illuminated with ultraviolet lamp (UV), exposure to 5 ppm of ozone (O3), exposure to 5-ppm ozone and illuminated with ultraviolet lamp simultan
