It is forbidden to send pregnant women on business trips, to engage in overtime work, work at night, weekends and non-working holidays of pregnant women (Article 259 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

Sending on business trips, engaging in overtime work, work at night, weekends and non-working holidays of women with children under the age of 3 years is allowed only with their written consent and provided that this is not prohibited by their medical recommendations. These guarantees are also provided to employees who have children with disabilities or disabled from childhood until they reach the age of eighteen, as well as employees who care for sick members of their families in accordance with a medical report (Article 259 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

At the present time, Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of February 25, 2000 No. 162 "On approval of the list of heavy work and work with harmful or dangerous working conditions, in the performance of which the use of women's labor is prohibited" is in force.

In accordance with the Sanitary Rules and Norms (SanPiN) 2.2.2.1327-03 "Hygienic requirements for the organization of technological processes, production equipment and working tools", approved by the Decree of the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of the Russian Federation dated May 25, 2003 No. 100, optimal and permissible values indicators of the severity and intensity of labor process factors for women are:

lifting and moving (one-time) gravity when alternating with other work (up to 2 times per hour): optimal - up to 5 kg, permissible - up to 10 kg;
lifting and moving (one-time) gravity constantly during the work shift: optimal - up to 3 kg, permissible - up to 7 kg;
the total mass of goods moved during each hour of the shift:
from the working surface: optimal - up to 100 kg, permissible - up to 350 kg;
from the floor: optimal - up to 50 kg, permissible - up to 175 kg.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Cosmic rays to help customs officers 04.05.2004

Konstantin Borozdin from the Los Alamos National Laboratory (USA) and his collaborators propose to use not X-rays, but radiation penetrating the Universe, cosmic rays, to scan suspicious cargo at customs.

The checked baggage is placed between two cosmic ray detectors - flat ionization chambers with thin strings stretched inside and filled with argon. Cosmic rays ionize the argon, and current discharges jump between the strings. Comparing the discharges in the upper and lower chambers, the computer builds a picture - the shadow of metal objects in the luggage.

Thus, using large ionization chambers, it is possible to shine through at least a whole truck. Heavy metals are especially visible.
