Rapid Behavioral Assessment Sample Clauses

Rapid Behavioral Assessment. The Rapid Behavioral Assessment was conducted in 27 health facilities to better understand the target workplace population and explore the health-related behavior of employees. A total of 394 worksite employees, including daily laborers, support staff, and technical staff from a variety of agricultural and industrial sectors were included in this rapid assessment with a response rate of 93 percent. The participants were 50.5% male and 49.5% female with a median age of 29 years, with ages ranging from 16 years old to 60. Respondents were asked a variety of questions regarding HIV, STIs, sexual practices, worksite health practices, and gender-based violence. Key findings include: When asked to identify the health problems affecting employees at their respective worksites HIV (43.4%) was cited as the most affecting health problem in the worksites; followed by Malaria (42.9%), Hygiene/sanitary problems (20.6%), TB (16.2%), and worksite accidents (8.1%). Apart from HIV, accidents and addiction to khat and alcohol were also considered major health problems within certain industries. Worksite employees were asked about how people get infected with HIV. Accordingly, a significant majority of males (87.9%) and females (87.2%) identified that having unprotected sex with an infected person is the most frequently cited way of HIV transmission; followed by sharing sharp instruments like needles, razor blades, tooth brushes; having more than one sexual partner at a time; unscreened blood transfusion; and mother to child transmissions. 6.4% of respondents (7.5% of male respondents and 5.1% of females) had misconceptions on HIV transmission, wrongly identifying ways of HIV infection such as sharing a meal with a person who acquired HIV, mosquito bites, eating raw meat, and a curse from elders. A large proportion of males (69.3%) and females (61.0%) believed that STIs increase the likelihood of contracting HIV. However, approximately 10% of respondents believed that STIs have no effect or decrease the likelihood of contracting HIV, while the remainder said they did not know of any relationship between STIs and HIV. Such answers revealed a large knowledge gap in the relationship between STIs and HIV, highest among respondents from industries such sugar factories, farm-flower, and farm agriculture. Of similar concern were respondents’ beliefs regarding the effectiveness of condoms in preventing HIV transmission. Less than two-thirds (61.2%) of respondents believed that using...

  • Denial/Restoral OSS Charge In the event <<customer_name>> provides a list of customers to be denied and restored, rather than an LSR, each location on the list will require a separate PON and, therefore will be billed as one LSR per location. <<customer_name>> will incur an OSS charge for an accepted LSR that is later canceled by <<customer_name>>. Note: Supplements or clarifications to a previously billed LSR will not incur another OSS charge. <<customer_name>> will incur the mechanized rate for all LSRs, both mechanized and manual, if the percentage of mechanized LSRs to total LSRs meets or exceeds the threshold percentages shown below: Year Ratio: Mechanized/Total LSRs 2000 80% 2001 90% The threshold plan will be discontinued in 2002. BellSouth will track the total LSR volume for each CLEC for each quarter. At the end of that time period, a Percent Electronic LSR calculation will be made for that quarter based on the LSR data tracked in the LCSC. If this percentage exceeds the threshold volume, all of that CLEC’s future manual LSRs for the following quarter will be billed at the mechanized LSR rate. To allow time for obtaining and analyzing the data and updating the billing system, this billing change will take place on the first day of the second month following the end of the quarter (e.g. May 1 for 1Q, Aug 1 for 2Q, etc.). There will be no adjustments to the amount billed for previously billed LSRs.
