I have been quite around the streets in old Dubai market area. But yesterday was the first time I visited the market area in Deira. I was jus' surprised at sight of workers kickin' back on these mini cargo trolleys on every nook and corner of the busy streets sippin' tea n having a chit chat.
While I was there, I did try to kick back on one of these myself :D

The BC Centre for Ability in Vancouver has an annual health and safety fair. It is mandatory for workers to attend so they can meet accreditation standards, and our members there did a great job of informing everyone!
The OHS Tea is our annual event to get relevant and necessary information out to our staff in a quick and fun way and it is mandatory for staff to attend. There are certain topics that have to be relayed to staff yearly per CARF standards, so we do those and then we look at topics that seem to be relevant to staff and set up booths relating to each topic. On the CARF standards, we always have a quiz to show that staff are aware of the information and we keep the results as evidence for the accreditors. The other booths have various interactive things happening. This year’s topics were:
1.NO SCENTS MAKES SENSE – we have had a number of staff wearing scents which are very irritating for number of other staff members, so I did this booth with information on the effects of scents on people. I also had a quiz “No Matter the Language, No Scents Makes Sense” and displayed the sentence in various languages (mainly spoken by staff) and staff were to guess the language. Also, had handouts for natural and scent free products.
2.BACK CARE – as our staff deal with clients and also spend time doing reports, this was done to give good pointers on proper posture. (done by a physio)
3.SAFETY IN THE COMMUNITY – most of our consultants and therapists spend a fair amount of time in the community, so this booth covered how to stay safe when out working in the community – where to park, no cell phone while driving, how to get out of a place if you feel unsafe, etc.
4.SLIPS, TRIPS & FALLS – main injuries at our Centre – hazards in homes and community and how to prevent them. Had a quiz for completion.
5.ROUTINE PRACTICES – basic practices to keep yourself and others safe – risk assessment, hand hygiene, ppe, environmental and administrative controls. This is mandatory information that is to be disseminate to staff yearly, so had a quiz to ensure that people understood.
6.RISKS, HAZARDS & INCIDENTS – again mandatory information to be disseminated – so how to identify and differentiate between them.

OK, so it’s only a cardboard prototype at the moment BUT this is the approximate size of the proposed GPS/GPRS lone worker/small team terminal that we are currently developing. I've also put a short video on YouTube...www.youtube.com/user/timewareCommunity
The price of apartment and land has been doubled or tripled in some regions of Tehran. So even a tree-floor building is demolished to make a five-floor one . The land owners and capitalists are get richer and richer. But these workers which are utilized with no safety , no insurance and facing death dangers for them. If one of them fall down, what happens? Nothing!
You know what they do? They are removing breaks and steel rods which are again utilized in the new building!!
Elli was barking at the railway worker who was up on the train line. As you see, Hector never even noticed he was there.
