It begins by outlining the learning outcomes, which are to describe chemical and biological hazards, explain control and prevention strategies, and discuss indoor air quality issues. It then covers definitions of chemical hazards, how to identify, assess, and control chemical hazards in industries. It discusses indoor air quality problems and sick building syndrome. Biological hazards are defined and examples are provided. Routes of biological hazard entry and examples of occupations exposed are outlined. Finally, strategies for controlling biological hazards are presented, including engineering, administrative, and personal protective controls.
Chemicals are the most common and significant health hazards and Chemicals can be hazardous for numerous reasons and can combine with other chemicals to make new hazards.
Therefore All hazards must be taken into account when using and storing chemicals.
# Understand that chemicals hazards.
# Understand that safe storage is an important issue.
# Understand that many chemical injuries result from
improper storage.
# Know four basic rules of chemical safety.
# Be aware of the categories of dangerous chemicals
and appropriate safety precautions.
The meaning of the word hazard can be confusing. Often dictionaries do not give specific definitions or combine it with the term "risk". For example, one dictionary defines hazard as "a danger or risk" which helps explain why many people use the terms interchangeably.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

• A chemical hazard is a chemical that because of its
characteristics and effects may cause harm to an individual.
• Level of harm is impacted by ;
amount of chemical
time frame the exposure occurs
how the exposure occur (route of entry)
characteristic of the individual
• Typical chemical hazard includes mists, vapors, gases, dusts
and fumes.
4. 4.1 Chemical hazard Definition
• Routes of entry point of toxic chemical;
Inhalation
• Once a chemical reaches the lower levels of the lungs, it
can pass into the bloodstream and travel to a target organ
where it will exert its effect
Skin
absorption
Ingestion
• Chemical can be absorbed directly through the skin
and into the bloodstream
• Not a major concern in an industrial setting is entry
through the mouth, but may occur if house keeping
and personal hygiene practices are not adhered.
Injection
• Is a route of entry for some chemicals, particularly
drugs, where the use of needles is common in
product handling, dispensing or delivery.
5. 4.1 Chemical hazard Definition
• Time frame the exposure occur;
Acute
exposure
• An exposure to a substance over a brief period of time
(usually 24 hours) that has an immediate or delayed
impact on the exposed person.
Chronic
exposure
• An exposure to a substance that occurs over a long
period of time, which allow to accumulate and cause
toxic effects in the body.
• Types of hazardous Chemical.pdf
6. 4.2 Identifying, assessing and control chemical hazard in
industries
• How to identify and assess chemical hazards :
Step 1
List tasks that the worker performs and environmental factors where the
worker is located
Step 2
Identify and list the chemicals to which the worker may be exposed
Step 3
Identify the potential for exposure to chemical substances through the
various routes of entry
Step 4
Assess the hazard, evaluate potential exposure and determine the risk for
exposure
Step 5
Identify appropriate controls following the hierarchy of controls
7. 4.2 Identifying, assessing and control chemical hazard in
industries
How to implement Step 2 and Step 3:
Ensure the labels of incoming containers of hazardous chemicals are not
removed or defaced.
Retain MSDS/CSDS on Incoming hazardous chemical.
What is MSDS/CSDS?
Step 2
Identify and list the chemicals to which the worker may be exposed
Step 3
Identify the potential for exposure to chemical substances through the
various routes of entry
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)/ Chemical Safety Data Sheet (CSDS)
contains precautions for handling and using harmful substances and
includes information such as health hazards, fire and explosion hazards,
physical characteristics, hazardous ingredients, PPE and spill procedures.
9. 4.3 Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
IAQ problem arise in non- industrial buildings (enclosed
work space that is served by a ventilating and air
conditioning system where there are person at work).
IAQ and mechanical ventilating and air conditioning system
(MVAC) are closely related.
Often cause of poor IAQ can be slipshod maintenance
such as failure to keep fans, ductwork and filters clean,
particle and gases release by equipment, carpet, paints ,
solvent etc.
“Sick-building syndrome”- A combination of ailments
(syndrome) associated with an individual’s place of work
(office building).
Symptom of sick- building syndrome ; building occupants
complain of symptoms such as irritation of the eyes, nose,
throat, skin irritation.
10. 4.4 Biological Hazard Definition
• Organisms or products of organisms that present a health hazard to humans.
• The most common biological hazards include :
a) Bacteria – microscopic organisms that live in soil, water, organic matter or
the bodies of plants and animals.
b) Viruses – a group of pathogens that consist mostly of nucleic acids and
that lack cellular structure.
c) Fungi – any of a major group of lower plants that lack chlorophyll and live
on dead or other living organisms.
• Examples of different types of biological hazards :
a) Bacteria – Escherichia coli (E.Coli), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB)
b) Viruses – Influenza, SARS, cold
c) Fungi – yeast, athlete's foot
• Other concerns from the environment may include:
a) Insect stings/ bites
b) Allergic reactions e.g. peanuts, bee stings
c) Poisonous plants. Animal.
11. 4.4 Biological Hazard Definition
How Biological hazard enter the body :
Inhalation
• Unlike chemical inhalation, we don't know that we have
inhaled a bacteria, virus. It is only when we get symptoms
of the infection
Absorption
• A biohazard can enter the bloodstream through broken
skin, such as chapped skin, hangnail or any other break in
the skin.
Ingestion • Poor hand washing is one of the most common ways that
biological hazards can be transmitted.
Injection
• When something sharp punctures the skin, a biohazard
can enter the body
12. 4.4 Biological Hazard Definition
Examples of occupations which is exposed to Biological hazard :
13. 4.5 Biological hazard control and prevention strategies
Three approaches to control biological hazard :
Where reasonably practicable,
employer must be use engineering
controls
Employer must use administrative
controls that control exposure to the
hazard to a level as low as reasonably
achievable
Employer must ensure that appropriate
personal protective equipment is used
Employer may use a combination of
above mentioned approaches.
•Ventilation systems and seals to
create negative pressure room.
•Bio-safety hoods
•Disposal containers
•Worker training,
•Policies (regular hand washing)
•Specific work schedule to limited
the times of exposures
•Most common PPE are; latex
gloves, proper mask and eye
protection.
14. Chemical safety and handling procedure:
1. LABELS: Ensure the bottle has the correct product in it and correctly
labeled. Do not use un labelled chemicals. Replace any labels, which are
damaged or illegible.
2. CORRECT USE OF CHEMICALS: Always use chemicals as per the
instructions on the label, product information sheets, Wall charts and on the
Material Safety Data Sheet.
3. READ THE MSDS BEFORE YOU USE ANY CHEMICALS: Not all the
information you need is on the label. It is your responsibility to always know
where the chemical register is kept.
4. CHEMICALS – SAFE HANDLING: Do not mix chemicals, (It’s hazardous and
can be counter productive). Do not “Top Up”, (It’s hazardous and can lead to
cross contamination). Always use a clean empty container. Do not overdose.
5. RETURN CHEMICALS AFTER USE: When finished with chemicals, wipe
down the bottle and store away safely in chemical cupboard.
6. ALWAYS WEAR APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: i.e. Aprons,
Gloves, Goggles or Glasses, Safety Footwear, Masks, etc (As per the MSDS).
15. Chemical safety and handling procedure:
7. REPORT ALL SPILLS, ACCIDENTS & ILL EFFECTS: Ensure Spill Kits are
available and easily accessible. Remove spills as per MSDS directions. If
unable to contain spills safely activate code YELLOW.
8. FIRST AID KIT: First Aid Kits should be easily accessible
9. NEVER STACK CHEMICALS MORE THAN 2 DRUMS HIGH: Stacking
Chemical drums and boxes more than 2 high is unsafe and may fall causing
damage. It is advisable to store powders above liquids.
10. IF IN DOUBT THROW IT OUT: If you are not sure of a product, label, etc.
Do not use it, notify your supervisor so it can be disposed of properly.
11. OBSERVE SAFE OPERATION OF DISPENSING EQUIPMENT: Ensure all
staff knows how to operate chemical-dispensing systems safely.
12. USE OF CONTAINERS: Seal containers when not in use. Do not open
damaged containers, return them or seek advice from your supplier.
13. HYGIENE: Always wash your hands after using chemicals, (even if gloves
were worn).
14. VENTILATION: Ensure there is adequate ventilation in the storeroom and
when using the chemicals.
16. Chemical safety and handling procedure:
15. SAFETY: If in doubt as to the correct use of the chemical, DO NOT USE
16. SMOKING: Do not smoke anywhere near the chemicals or whilst you are
using the chemicals.
17. FOOD SAFETY: Do not use any chemicals near food.
18. CORRECT CHEMICAL, CORRECT JOB: Always use the right chemicals for
the right job
19. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Always use and clean safety
equipment after use.
20. MOST IMPORTANTLY USE COMMONSENSE: We must all take every
precaution when using chemicals to ensure that individual safety and
responsibility is optimised.
