Occupational Safety and Health / Legislative basis for labor protection

Due to the high growth rates of market trade in the late 90s of the 20th century, no special attention was paid to labor protection rules in this area. This led to the fact that very often the most elementary conditions for safe trading were not observed. Spontaneous outlets were placed in places completely unintended for trade: in tents at bus stops; in squares, parks; in trailers, near the roadway; on the territory of educational institutions.

Today we can say that the time of spontaneous markets has passed. Programs are being developed and legislative acts are being adopted aimed at restoring order in the sphere of trade, the purpose of which is the elementary observance of the Sanitary and Hygienic Rules and, at the same time, the rules of labor protection of citizens working in trade.

If you are a trade worker, then you should know that the Decree of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of October 16, 2000 No. 74 approved and entered into force on December 1, 2000 Intersectoral rules for labor protection in retail trade POT RM 014-2000. These rules apply to employers and employees of retail trade organizations, regardless of their form of ownership and organizational and legal forms, as well as individual entrepreneurs using hired labor, performing all types of work related to the purchase and sale of goods and the provision of trade services to customers.

Decree of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation dated February 12, 2002 No. 9 approved Intersectoral standard instructions on labor protection for retail workers, namely, standard instructions on labor protection for:

the cashier of the trading floor and the controller of the cashier;
storekeeper;
auxiliary worker;
goods receiver;
retail chain seller;
seller of non-food products;
culinary seller;
a seller selling beer (kvass) from isothermal containers;
seller of food products;
a seller selling food products for consumption on the spot;
cleaner of industrial and service premises;
an employee who accepts glassware from the public;
an employee engaged in the packaging of food products;
a loader working in a trade organization;
a janitor working in a trade organization;
an attendant at the escalator working in a trade organization;
elevator operator of a freight small elevator working in a trade organization.

Employers are required to comply with the rules of labor protectionestablished by law.

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 ... >>

Hear the molecules 30.01.2019

Ultrasound technologies have been widely used by people for several decades, providing non-destructive control of technological processes, allowing physicians to see the internal organs of a person without the need for surgical intervention, etc. It is quite natural that with an increase in the general level of development of modern technologies, ultrasonic technologies also become more advanced, sensitive and functional. And what researchers from the University of Queensland managed to achieve can be characterized by the phrase "achieving perfection", the ultrasonic device they developed has such a high sensitivity that it is able to "hear" the vibrations of individual air molecules or the movement of individual living cells, including bacteria .

In conventional ultrasonic technology, the transmitter and receiver are made from crystals of piezoelectric materials. These materials are known to vibrate when an electric current is applied to them, creating sound vibrations whose frequency is beyond the sensitivity of the human ear. Ultrasonic waves, passing through air or water, are reflected from harder surfaces and returned to the receiver, where the mechanical vibrations are converted back into an electrical signal. Computing devices can decipher the information contained in the arrival delay time of reflected waves, their shape, phase, and build a fairly clear image based on this information.

Naturally, ultrasonic technologies have their limits, determined by the sensitivity and other parameters of the technique used. So the Queensland researchers had to use an unconventional approach to get the increased sensitivity of their device. And the device, in fact, is a quartz disk, 148 microns in diameter and 1.8 microns thick, placed on top of a semiconductor laser structure. Because sound vibrations affect the disc material at different points in different ways, this results in tiny deformations that are read by the laser and used to build higher quality images.

This new ultrasonic transducer is at least one hundred times more sensitive than any current high precision transducer. It measures the distortion of ultrasonic waves caused by very weak forces, such as gravitational forces pulling down on a single molecule. In other words, this sensor can hear vibrations of individual molecules or "echoes" of processes occurring inside individual living cells.
