Protection from danger

Liver Chemical Processing. For protection from dangerous accumulation of various toxins, the body has evolved methods to eliminate foreign substances. Potentially harmful chemicals can originate from myriad sources including foods, liquids, air, and, of course, medications. The liver s role is to inactivate these chemicals and to convert (metabolize) them to water-soluble forms (i.e., forms that dissolve in water rather than fat), which can more easily be filtered and eliminated by the kidneys. 

Private Protection from Danger (Insurance, Supervisory Bodies)... 

Protection from danger on the basis of laws and by officials is by no means the only adequate form of loss prevention. 

Precautionary Measures Against Risks and Protection from Danger... 

As for the conventional type of loss prevention (protection from danger), there is no doubt that risks which are extremely unlikely to occur... 

The concepts of sanction, liability, and loss prevention (protection from danger) do not figure within the boundaries of safety legislation as unconnected or unrelated parts. On the contrary, they are linked together... 

The interlinking of liability, sanction, and loss prevention (protection from danger) is a necessary measure, A legal system confined to subsequent indemnification and sanctions would be just as ineffective and inadequate as preventive protection from danger which, in the case of failure, is not supplemented by the obligation to provide indemnification and, in the case of violation, is not empowered to impose the proper sanctions. 

Thus, if the demand for zero risk must be rejected as a nonsensical, absolute demand in view of technicabpractical conditions prevailing in this world, while the basic claim of the citizen to protection from dangers remains, the measure of protection, and the imposed risk can be determined only in concrete instances according to the principle of the relationship between means and ends. The limitations of our abilities only permit that we transform into reality some of that which is feasible in view of outside, factual reality in this case the moral law commands selection of the best possible alternative. Between equally good or, if the occasion arises, between only probably equally good means and ends there is free choice. What will determine our choice is morally a matter of indifference [9-26]. 

If an employer s wheels meet the exclusion above, they would not be covered by 1910.215. Instead, they would be covered in 1910.212, General Requirements for All Machines (1910.212 does not address specific types of equipment and is not as detailed as 1910.215, but it does require that workers be protected from dangerous parts by one or more methods and that the point of operation must be guarded.). 

No. OSHA requires in 1910.212 that workers be protected from dangerous parts by one or more methods and that the point of operation must be guarded. 

Mine conditions are primarily controlled by mine operators. Accordingly, Congress charged operators with ensuring that the miners are protected from dangerous conditions within the mines. The mere operation of a mine operation explains why the operator is primarily responsible for ensuring safe mining conditions. After all, it is the operator that purchases the equipment used in the oper-... 

Protection against explosions is typically provided by explosion-venting, using panels or membranes which vent an incipient explosion before it can develop dangerous pressures (11,60). Protection from explosions can be provided by isolation, either by distance or barricades. Because of the destmctive effects of explosions, improvement in explosion-prevention instmmentation, control systems, or overpressure protection should receive high priority. 

From early cave dwellings to the well-appointed suburban homes of today, the most fundamental reason for shelter remains to provide protection from weather and other possible dangers. Beyond this most basic purpose, modern culture has forged a number of other expectations for homes, including affordability, comfort, health, durability, and peace of mind. This article explains the concepts behind energy-efficient homes—how they meet our basic needs... 

This is one of the simplest applications of the flow of a compressible fluid and it can be used to illustrate many of the features of the process. In practical terms, it is highly relevant to the design of relief valves or bursting discs which are often incorporated into pressurised systems in order to protect the equipment and personnel from dangers which may arise if the equipment is subjected to pressures in excess of design values. In many cases it is necessary to vent gases evolved in a chemical reaction. 

The Delaney Clause was introduced to protect the American consumer from dangerous substances. By the if proven toxic, X is forbidden logic that did not include any reference to medical risk, the inexorable progress of instrumental analysis naturally lead to the situation where, in a few years, apple pie would have been declared off limits had the clause not been struck from the books, because it is certain to contain a one part per trillion of some X that is toxic at the kg-per-day level. 

Short-wavelength shield The protection of the surface of a planet from dangerous short-wavelength radiation from the local star. On the Earth, the ozone layer shields the surface, as does the photic zone. 

If a terrorist attack occurs near an occupied home or office building, the building can provide some level of protection from weapons of mass destruction, assuming its structural integrity is still intact and no imminent danger of fire is present. However, the purity of the air within the building must be maintained. This can be accomplished by ... 

The Militia Law should be repealed and none sujfered to be reenacted and the Arms of all the People should be taken away and every piece of Ordnance removed into the King s Stores, nor should any Foundry or manufacturer of Arms, Gunpowder, or Warlike Stores, be ever suffered in America, nor should any Gunpowder, Lead, Arms, or Ordnance be imported into it without License they will have but little need of such things for the future, as the King s Troops, Ships Forts will be sufficient to protect them from danger. ...
