The compensation culture is still going strong and it seems we need to have health and safety training just to sneeze these days. In fact, I bet, somewhere in this crazy world, someone has managed a compensation claim from a higher authority after a place wasn\'t thoroughly dusted, bringing on a sneezing fit and causing a whiplash injury.
This need for health and safety training to cover...
There is a bit of a panic on of late regarding the cleanliness of our hospitals. Since this job has been sub-contracted out to commercial cleaners, budgets have been cut and no matter how efficient a cleaning service are, they can only do a limited amount of cleaning if hospital budgets only allow for occasional cleaning. This, it is believed, has led to many an outbreak of the deadly MRSA...
The most important piece of office furniture you could possibly invest in is proper seating. The correct seating that is supportive and, set up correctly, will avoid untold compensation claims through the health and safety department. To get the right seating for our employees we need to understand why it is so important.
The spine is a complicated piece of equipment. It supports our whole...
Businesses are folding left, right and centre at the moment due to the collapse of the banking system and it will be the elite few that can survive the current crisis. People are spending less and less due to a lack of confidence and therefore companies are having to work that much harder to gain and keep customers. There is a distinct downturn in profits for the majority of companies and these...
New surf clothing is on the market that is so stretchy and water tight that there are no seams, seals, joints or fastenings. You climb into this wetsuit through the neck.
Now correct me if I am wrong but this sounds like a feat beyond all reasonable physical possibility. I\'m not a surfer but I am a scuba diver and have been exposed to the ritual of donning and removing a wetsuit and it is...
Is it a sign of affluence to dress your children as scruffy as possible? If so, then I am doing something wrong. When I take my children out, I expect them to look clean and tidy. They are of an age now where they can choose their own fashion sense, but cleanliness and tidiness are a must.
Yet, I open the paper and see the likes of the Jolie/Pitt clan looking like some Victorian paupers in...
If I hear the phrase \'too much baggage\' one more time, I\'ll scream!
The only people that use the \'baggage\' excuse when it comes to relationships are those who are young and/or too immature to realise that this so-called baggage is actually \'life\' and if you didn\'t get involved with someone and accept their baggage you could well have a very lonely life!
There are certain stages...
With all the doom and gloom in the news these days is it any wonder we\'re all depressed? There\'s no money, food and petrol prices are going through the roof, crime is on the increase, the country is housing enough immigrants to sink the island without having enough accommodation for their own, the property market has gone for a Burton and the end is nigh.
This all goes to show us how we...
Trampolines have become a popular source of fun for children in recent years. Of course, safety features have increased because, as with most things, accidents are a hazard. However, walking across the street can be dangerous but we still do it so with trampolines, we take all the precautions we can and then we go have fun. The springs are now covered and most children\'s trampolines come with...
When it comes to the health of the nation, there are two classes of people. Those who don\'t give their health a second thought until it starts to disintegrate and those who firmly believe in covering their backs, so to speak, by taking out health insurance and also implementing preventative measures to look after themselves before an event.
This second group are the ones that will be...
