Control personal

A second issue that apparently elevates public anxiety about industrial products to a high level concerns the fact that people feel they have little or no personal control over those products. Tobacco and alcohol usage, diet, reproductive and sexual habits, and sunlight exposure are... 

Of course individual people can, for causes under their personal control, also benefit from the results of epidemiology studies even though epidemiology results apply to populations, individuals at least have an increased chance of benefiting by avoiding the substances or factors identified as causes of disease, especially when, as in the case of smoking, the population risk from the causative agent is unusually... 

The theoretical rationale had to be acceptable to both therapist and client. Credible explanation gives a sense of personal control, thereby making co-operation in the therapy more likely. 

Archive Management. An individual must be responsible for the archives. This person controls access to the archives, checks items in and out of the archives, and maintains these use (access) records. 

Qualitative characteristics such as the degree of personal control of exposure to a hazard, familiarity with the hazard ... 

The simple act of planting trees illuminates the importance of autonomy and personal control over one s activities as essential elements in these forms of timekeeping, both in distinction from and as responses to the cooptations of time that take place in the non-dacha lives of Russian citizens. Pleasure, then, is very much tied to the ability to control one s time and... 

A single chemical is most likely not responsible for SBS but, rather, it probably reflects exposures to various chemicals, which can differ at different sites. Because many VOCs produce similar symptoms to those noted in BRS, they are suspected to be potential causative agents. However, there seem to be some contributions from a wide range of other factors in the environment such as temperature, humidity, and cleanliness of offices, personal control over the environment, noise, and lighting. In addition, biological agents may contribute to BRS. 

It should be noted that although the sale of GSL medicines from a pharmacy does not need to be under the supervision of a pharmacist, GSL medicines must still be sold under the personal control of a pharmacist. The term personal control comes from the Medicines Act 1968 and has never been interpreted in the courts. However, it is generally understood to mean that the pharmacist must be available on the premises. If the pharmacist is not available, no medicines (including GSL items) may be sold at all. For this reason, GSL medicines sold from pharmacies are often treated as pharmacy (P) medicines, which can only be sold from a pharmacy under the supervision of a pharmacist (see Section 1.3.2). Obviously, this restriction does not apply to GSL medicines sold from other (non-pharmacy) establishments. 

Storage - an undertaking must be made that the IDA or TSDA will be stored under lock and key and under the pharmacist s personal control or under the control of an authorised deputy. 

Investigators such as Slovic, Fischoff and Sandman have studied how people perceive, or feel about, potential threats. A few of the attributes of a risk people consider, either explicitly or implicitly, in forming judgments, are the degree to which it is voluntarily assumed, the extent to which a personal benefit is perceived to exist as a result of incurring the risk, and the degree to which personal control over the risk is felt. 

A second issue that apparently elevates public anxiety about industrial products to a high level concerns the fact that people feel they have little or no personal control over those products. Tobacco and alcohol usage, diet, reproductive and sexual habits, and sunlight exposure are to greater or lesser degrees within people s personal controls, or at least they take personal responsibility for them, while they are involuntarily exposed to many industrial chemicals. As we shall show in our later chapter on Managing , people do not readily tolerate involuntarily-assumed risks, even if these risks are small.

Humans in the system can be treated in the same way as automated components in step 1 of STPA, as was seen in the interlock system above where a person controlled the position of the door. The causal analysis and detailed scenario generation for human controllers, however, is much more complex than that of electromechanical devices and even software, where at least the algorithm is known and can be evaluated. Even if operators are given a procedure to follow, for reasons discussed in... 

The LOLER impose further requirements on employers, on persons controlling the lifting equipment, and on the operator of the lifting equipment or the method of operation of the lifting equipment. 

Understand that some things cannot be measured, but it is important to increase self-esteem, personal control, optimism, and a strong sense of being a part of the safety culture.
