Health and safety doesn’t just occur in HR. It has to be closely and
carefully monitored at all times. Human resources must comply with a
significant amount of legislation; this is where the human resources
part comes into function in this area. Sainsbury’s HR like all other
businesses has a safety policy. This is a legal requirement, the
policy says in simple terms what the aims of Sainsbury’s are in
relation to health and safety of employees. It also includes key
members of staff and actions for carrying out the policy. The policy
will include arrangements covering training and instruction, company
rules and emergency arrangements. This will be signed by the senior
manger; it is revised regularly to be kept up to date. Sainsbury’s HR
has their own codes of practise; this is unique to Sainsbury’s HR as
all different businesses have their own. This states what employees
should do in an even of an emergency, such as a fire, bomb scare etc.
It says how to contact a first-aider, where a medical room is, calling
a doctor and so on. Sainsbury’s HR has a health and safety office in
all their stores; they have the responsibility for all health and
safety policies and training. They advise store managers about their
responsibilities for h+s and make sure that all employees working in
stores are informed about them. This is all to do with health and
safety laws. They place a responsibility on both the store managers
and employees. Human resources record all accidents in an accident
book which all employees have, they also record ‘near misses’ so they
can see where improvements need to be made.
Human resources train new staff for health and safety jobs which
include roles being health and safety officers, safety committee
meeting holders etc. Customers are also accounted into the health and
safety acts for Sainsbury’s HR, these include:-
* Disability needs accounted for- wheelchair access, lifts, helpers
etc
* Car parks- checked regularly for trolleys causing hazards, etc.
* Customer fire exits- Kept clear at all times.
* Shelves- all stacked to the lowest they can be.
* Warning signs- always can be visible and heard.
* Smoking, drinking, eating- banned in all stores.
* Substances and solvents- all kept in unreachable areas for
children’s safety (3rd or 4th level shelves).
* Toilets- checked every half an hour for staff and customers.
There are a lot more things human resources do to
protect all their customers and employees. Health and safety is
important for human resources as it protects their employees and
customers, Sainsbury’s reputation will not be very good if employees

Arson dogs are proving themselves to be a valuable asset to the arson investigators. Arson dogs are being used more each year by investigators and as well as private companies. Who do investigate for insurance companies. The use of a dog is to help pinpoint the location of where the fire started and what caused it. The dog reduces the number of samples that need to be collected and sent to be tested. This saves time and money. The dogs are trained to scent out a variety of chemicals used in a fire. Such as gas, lighter fluid, charcoal started, diesel. Kerosene, alcohol, brake fluid, paint thinner, and many more.
The samurai were élite warriors in Japan during the 1200’s to the early 1700’s. Fifth century Japan saw conflicts with Korea and China, but Japan had a very untrained army, with a clumsy Calvary, and poor infantry men (Blumberg 1). The reason was that horses were seen as a burden and were never bred to be strong, fast, and large for war purposes (Blumberg 2). In the 6th and 9th centuries, a series of rebellions in Japan began from the Emishi people of the northern home islands; these country people were very well-trained in mounted archery. The nimble Emishi would defeat the Japanese riders with ease (Blumberg 2). But during the war against the Emishi, Japan learned to breed horses for fighting, adapted new fighting methods, and developed new weapons. They replaced the slow, straight-sword with two curved blades that were faster and lighter. For the next 350 years, infantry was replaced with mounted archers, and we start to see the 13th century samurai form (Blumberg 3). The Bushido Code, the code that all samurai follow, helped form medieval Japan.
German war under Hitler was so powerful at the beginning of World War II. Later, the Germany became weaker and weaker as they go through the battles. In 1943, at the battle of Stalingrad, the allied troops invade Berlin. He married Eva Braun on April 29, 1945 and wrote his final political testament. The next day (April 30, 1946) they killed themselves using poison tablets when they realize that they are no longer safer. Seven days after Hitler’s Death, Germany Surrendered.

The release of the hazardous material or exposure to the fire that ensues results in the need to evacuate 25 or more people
It is a positive and realistic approach to emergency and disaster situations where citizens will be initially on their own and their actions can make a difference. Through training, citizens can manage utilities and put out small fires; treat the three killers by opening airways, controlling bleeding, and treating for shock; provide basic medical aid; search for and rescue victims safely and organize themselves and spontaneous volunteers to be effective. Furthermore, CERTs are formed by members of a neighborhood or workplace who want to be better prepared for the hazards that threaten their communities. Initially, CERT programs were developed to assist communities in taking care of themselves in the aftermath of a major disaster when first responders are overwhelmed or unable to respond because of communication or transportation difficulties. As the CERT concept has taken hold across the country, however, they have become much more than originally envisioned. They have proven themselves to be an active and vital part of their communities' preparedness and response capability. For example, they have been used to: distribute and/or install smoke alarms and batteries to the elderly and disabled; assist with evacuations and traffic control; promote community awareness of potential hazards and preparedness measures; supplement staffing at special events, such as parades; and act as victims in training exercises. CERTs are an investment of local government's time and resources (CERT...,

Adolf Hitler was born at 6:30 p.m. April 20th 1889 in the Austrian border town of Braunau Am Inn. His family tree was a mystery that would cause a lifelong source of embarrassment. He was the fourth of six children born to Alois Hitler and Klara Pölzl. Alois was an emotionally harsh, aggressive, and dominating father who didn’t support his son’s dream of a career in the fine arts. For these reasons there was a strain in their relationship. The family moved multiple times; Leoding, Austria in 1894, Hafeld in 1895, back to Leonding in 1898. In 1898 the family moved to Linz. Hitler fought with his father because he wanted to pursue a career in the arts while his father wanted him to enter the civil service. Although his mother
However the production and consumption of wine has been localised since the 1990’s. Most of the worlds wine consumers bought local wines or imported wines from nearby producing countries, this is mainly due to history and countries remaining true to their traditional roots of wine making such as the United Kingdom’s preference for wines made in France. Winemaking thus had limited international trade as they remained attached to local traditions. However, competitive positions in wine producing countries have exponentially changed in current times. Due to elimination of tariffs, some trade barriers and cost reductions global wine exports specifically have increased from 15% to 25% since the 1990s (Anderson et al, 2001) and thus have also enabled wine producers the chance to sell wine beyond regional
Introduction Canadian health and safety legislation requires companies and organizations to make a commitment towards occupational health and safety. Maintaining a safe workplace environment has numerous benefits. A safe work environment can boost employee morale, increase productivity, and improve job satisfaction. For companies and organizations, these benefits can lead to less turnover and increased employee retention. They can also reduce absenteeism while improving the culture and image of a company or organization.
Safety is a primary concern in the health care environment, but there are still many preventable errors that occur. In fact, a study from ProPublica in 2013 found that between 210,000 and 440,000 patients each year suffer preventable harm in the hospital (Allen, 2013). Safety in the healthcare environment is not only keeping the patient safe, but also the employee. If a nurse does not follow procedure, they could bring harm to themselves, the patient, or both. Although it seems like such a simple topic with a simple solution, there are several components to what safety really entails. Health care professionals must always be cautious to prevent any mishaps to their patients, especially when using machines or lifting objects, as it has a higher
By 1945, Hitler knew that Germany was going to lose the war. At midnight, going into April 29, 1945, Hitler married his girlfriend, Eva Braun, in a small ceremony in his Berlin Bunker. Around this time, Hitler was told that the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini had been assassinated. Hitler would rather die with his wife than with enemy troops, so the next morning Eva Braun and he committed suicide. Their bodies were later
In the 1800s and early 1900s Sociological Theories were introduced in crime causation. The Social Ecology Theory, Anomie Theory, and Subcultural Theory, are a huge factor in the study of crime causation. While taking a sociological approach, they discovered that “the structure of prevailing social arrangements, the interaction between individuals and groups, and the social environment” (Schmalleger 89) are the main causes of criminal behavior. Prospectively speaking, the majority of sociological viewpoints of crime are very unique from each other. Though the spectrum of this topic is wide, they all originate on a few essential hypotheses.
