Title A name given to the resource <h2>Mise au point et validation d’un outil de calcul du temps de service des cartouches filtrantes pour vapeurs organiques</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>En étudiant la capacité de filtration et la durée de vie des cartouches de protection respiratoire, l'IRSST a déjà démontré que, dans le cas de mélanges de polluants, il peut être plus dangereux d'utiliser un masque muni de cartouches saturées que de ne pas en porter. Des chercheurs ont mis au point un logiciel qui permet d'estimer le temps de service des cartouches chimiques qui filtrent les vapeurs de 145 solvants, la plupart cités dans le Règlement sur la santé et la sécurité du travail. Ce projet a aussi mené à l'élaboration d'un outil informatique qui permet d'établir une séquence de remplacement des cartouches filtrantes.Tous deux sont accessibles à partir du site Web de l'Institut.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100348.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100348.html</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource <h2>Sécurité des chariots élévateurs : Étude de l’efficacité de la ceinture de sécurité</h2> Subject The topic of the resource <span>Ce rapport fait état de l'évolution des recherches menées depuis le début des années 1990 sur l'efficacité du port de la ceinture de sécurité et d'autres dispositifs pour protéger les caristes en cas de renversement d'un chariot élévateur. Il rend compte des essais réalisés par l'Université de Sherbrooke et l'IRSST, en collaboration avec l'INRS, de France, pour connaître l'apport en matière de sécurité de divers dispositifs, dont des portillons, des accoudoirs et des sièges à oreilles, combinés ou non à une ceinture de sécurité pelvienne. Il s'avère que le port d'une ceinture seule ou la présence d'une porte complète, combiné à un système de protection de la tête, constitue un bon moyen de protection contre la plupart des lésions qui peuvent survenir en cas de renversement latéral d'un chariot élévateur. Les résultats de l'étude réfutent la croyance voulant que le port d'une ceinture de sécurité augmente significativement la vitesse d'impact du corps ou de la tête au sol. Ils démontrent également que des actions prescrites par les fabricants, soit le cramponnage au volant et le calage des pieds, contribuent à la sécurité, mais ne garantissent pas une protection efficace contre les blessures graves. Les auteurs recommandent que le port de la sécurité pelvienne soit réglementé.</span> Description An account of the resource <a target="_blank" href="http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100345.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.irsst.qc.ca/en/_publicationirsst_100345.html</a> Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It is based on the premise that in order to respond effectively to the delivery of education in emergencies, UNICEF officers must take the requisite preparedness actions. These materials can be used in three main ways: 1) as a resource in conjunction with education in emergencies training; 2) as a guide for emergency preparedness, and in particular, for preparing Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans; and 3) as a reference in the face of an emergency.
