O yes indeed,

OH&S is big business here right now, as is occupational hygiene.

Most of the major consulting houses have OH&S people (asbestos, industrial, marine etc), and there are lots of specialist firms too.

Does she have a speciality?

With the new year well underway and the kids back at school, I wonder if capacity in the workplace is increasing or decreasing.

If we go home burden or harm with by-products of our job, what are the impact for our family members?Workplace health and safety normally attract on workplaces, and as a result we tend to overlook the home. How many lost time injuries are accurate for accidents in the home? If the kids get sick or are injured, the mother is the common to take care of his child and take off to the work.

We can't really constitute or police health and safety at home. I'm hardly suggesting that some lost time can be prevented if we have safety precaution at home to avoid injury. Are there any company that are enthusiastic in this health and safety at home?
