Cyanobacteria Blooms Sample Clauses

Cyanobacteria Blooms. Incorporating a metric for cyanobacterial abundance in the assessment of ecological status is of great relevance to the ultimate goal of the WFD, the sustainable use of our freshwaters. In the context of harmful cyanobacterial blooms, as a precautionary approach, it would be better to consider the potential maximum cyanobacterial abundance that the current environment could bring about. For modelling the relationship between cyanobacterial abundance and nutrient pressure, it was, therefore, considered more relevant to model maximum abundance instead of mean abundance. Quantile regression was used to estimate a range of distributions of the response variable (cyanobacteria bio volume) conditional on the predictor variable (total phosphorus), rather than only the mean distribution. There were highly significant relationships between cyanobacteria bio volume and TP for quantiles 50%, 75%, 90% and 95% (p<0.001) in all three GIGs examined (Central-Baltic, Mediterranean, Northern). Figure 3.1-4 illustrates the median (50%) and 90% response curves from Central-Baltic GIG lakes. It shows that there is a 90% likelihood of being below the World Health Organisation (WHO) low/medium risk threshold at about 20 µg L-1 TP, compared with only a 50% likelihood at about 80 µg L-1 TP. Reference lakes also had significantly lower cyanobacterial bio volumes than non-reference lakes in all three GIGs. A provisional approach to setting status class boundaries has been outlined based on the frequency of samples that exceed the WHO risk thresholds. WhO risk threshold Total Phosphorus (µg L -1)

  • Hepatitis B Vaccine Where the Hospital identifies high risk areas where employees are exposed to Hepatitis B, the Hospital will provide, at no cost to the employees, a Hepatitis B vaccine.

  • Influenza Vaccine Upon recommendation of the Medical Officer of Health, all employees shall be required, on an annual basis to be vaccinated and or to take antiviral medication for influenza. If the costs of such medication are not covered by some other sources, the Employer will pay the cost for such medication. If the employee fails to take the required medication, she may be placed on an unpaid leave of absence during any influenza outbreak in the home until such time as the employee has been cleared by the public health or the Employer to return to the work environment. The only exception to this would be employees for whom taking the medication will result in the employee being physically ill to the extent that she cannot attend work. Upon written direction from the employee’s physician of such medical condition in consultation with the Employer’s physician, (if requested), the employee will be permitted to access their sick bank, if any, during any outbreak period. If there is a dispute between the physicians, the employee will be placed on unpaid leave. If the employee gets sick as a reaction to the drug and applies for WSIB the Employer will not oppose the application. If an employee is pregnant and her physician believes the pregnancy could be in jeopardy as a result of the influenza inoculation and/or the antiviral medication she shall be eligible for sick leave in circumstances where she is not allowed to attend at work as a result of an outbreak. This clause shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the Ontario Human Rights Code.

The Employer will provide training and ongoing education in communicable disease recognition, use of personal protective equipment, decontamination of equipment, and disposal of hazardous waste.

  • Vaccination and Inoculation ‌ (a) The Employer agrees to take all reasonable precautions to limit the spread of infectious diseases among employees, including in-service seminars for employees. Where the Employer or Occupational Health and Safety Committee identifies high risk areas which expose employees to infectious or communicable diseases for which there are protective immunizations available, such immunizations shall be provided at no cost to the employee. The Committee may consult with the Medical Health Officer. Where the Medical Health Officer identifies such a risk, the immunization shall also be provided at no cost. The Employer shall provide Hepatitis B vaccine, free of charge, to those employees who may be exposed to bodily fluids or other sources of infection. (b) An employee may be required by the Employer, at the request of and at the expense of the Employer, to take a medical examination by a physician of the employee's choice. Employees may be required to take skin tests, x-ray examination, vaccination, and other immunization (with the exception of a rubella vaccination when the employee is of the opinion that a pregnancy is possible), unless the employee's physician has advised in writing that such a procedure may have an adverse effect on the employee's health.
