Occupational cancer what you need to knowMike Slater
Approximately 8,000 workers die every year in Great Britain from occupational cancer. Controlling exposure to carcinogens at work involves recognizing hazards, evaluating exposures, and controlling them. The hierarchy of control recommends prevention through engineering controls, work practices, and personal protective equipment in order of preference. Occupational hygienists can help employers implement controls and locate guidance to address cancer risks like asbestos, silica, and diesel exhaust.

- Construction workers face significant health risks from exposure to silica dust, which can lead to fatal lung diseases like silicosis. Over 500 workers in the UK are estimated to die from silica exposure each year.
- Exposure measurement studies show that workers performing tasks like drilling, demolition, and concrete grinding often experience respirable silica exposures above the UK limit of 0.1 mg/m3. Long-term or high-level exposures increase the risk of developing silicosis.
- Effective dust control measures during tasks that generate silica dust, such as using water sprays or extraction tools, are needed to reduce worker exposures and health risks from silica.
This document discusses protecting worker health in various industries. It notes that while 39 workers fatally in construction in 2012/13, occupational exposures also lead to many non-fatal illnesses. Each year there are an estimated 31,000 new cases of work-related ill health in construction, 3,700 occupational cancer cases, and over 500 deaths from silica exposure alone. The broader picture shows approximately 13,000 occupational disease deaths annually in the UK. Various industries like stonemasonry, welding, painting, and recycling expose workers to hazardous substances that can cause cancer, respiratory disease, and other illnesses. The document advocates for prevention through engineering controls, safe work practices, protective equipment, and proper management of occupational health and safety programs.
This document discusses occupational exposure to industrial dust, including an estimated 9.2 million workers exposed in the UK. Dust exposure can occur through handling powders, cutting materials, and disturbing settled dust. Health effects include respiratory diseases, irritation, fibrosis, COPD, asthma, and lung cancer. Evaluating risks involves initial and detailed surveys. Studies on brick making and stone cutting found many workers exposed to respirable crystalline silica above recommended limits. Risk of silicosis increases significantly with exposure levels over 15 years. Controlling dust involves prevention through engineering solutions, work practices like wet cutting, PPE, and measures like exposure time reduction, supervision, training and health surveillance.
This document discusses managing risks from heat stress at work. It explains that human beings naturally produce body heat through physical activity, and must lose heat to the environment to regulate body temperature. However, high environmental temperatures, humidity, radiant heat, and other factors can increase heat stress risks. Left unmanaged, heat stress can cause illnesses ranging from heat cramps to heat stroke. The document outlines factors to consider in assessing heat stress risks, such as air temperature, humidity, clothing, metabolic rate, and acclimatization. It then discusses methods for evaluating risk levels, such as the WBGT index and physiological monitoring. Finally, it presents a hierarchy of controls for preventing and mitigating heat stress risks through engineering solutions, work
Slides from my presentation at the Occupational Hygiene Society of Ireland Society Conference 2014.
The slides on their own don't make a lot of sense - for speakers notes see http://www.slideshare.net/mikeslater/presentation-design-slides-for-web
Slides with speaker's notes from the Presentation on "Presentation Design" given at the Occupational Hygiene Society of Ireland Conference on 20 February 2014
The document provides tips for designing effective presentations. It notes that presentations come in many forms, from reporting results to management to conference speeches. Good presentations have clear objectives, appropriate content for the time available, and engage the audience. Effective visual materials like slides should enhance the speaker's message, not serve as a script. The document outlines best practices for slide design, including using visuals over text and limiting content to key points. It also advises that handouts expand on the presentation instead of duplicating slides verbatim. Overall, the tips emphasize preparation, clear and concise visual aids, and audience engagement.
Increasing our influence and making a differenceMike Slater

Occupational hygiene aims to prevent illness caused by workplace hazards. It does this through recognizing, evaluating, and controlling hazardous agents via a multidisciplinary approach involving chemistry, toxicology, physics, biology, engineering, and law. Hazards include chemicals, physical agents like noise and vibration, biological agents, and ergonomic risks. Risk is determined by assessing the hazard and level of worker exposure. Controls follow a hierarchy starting with eliminating or substituting the hazard, then using engineering controls, administrative controls like safe work practices, and finally personal protective equipment. Occupational hygienists play a key role in anticipating hazards, conducting exposure assessments, and advising on prevention strategies to protect worker health.
Sampling for sulphuric acid mist version for slideshareMike Slater
This document discusses occupational hygiene and measuring exposure to hazardous substances like sulphuric acid mist. It explains that a new workplace exposure limit has been set for the thoracic fraction of sulphuric acid mist. Two options for measuring exposure are discussed: 1) sampling the inhalable fraction, which would overestimate thoracic exposure but may still indicate if the limit is exceeded, and 2) developing a validated method for directly measuring the thoracic fraction, which would be expensive. Interpreting exposure measurement results and correcting for background also need consideration.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
