Question

Interpret the law to devise a valid and ethical solution to a problematic workplace scenario and then present your case and solution to the scenario using multimedia

Answer 1

Answer:

To devise the technical and ethical issues in a workplace,we have to interprete the following rules and guidlines:

International Labor Organisation,s guidelines and recomendations for safeguarding interests of workers, occupational health hazards program through TV serials and TV episodes for family planning and risk related conditions at work through video coverage can assist in preventing accidents at workplace.

The health guidelines can be used in development of legislation,regulation,collective agreement,work rules,policies and practical measures at enterprise level on worker,s health surveillance. The law says that workplace should be comfortable and environment should be clean but there is clear violation of laws like Mines fields are full of dust and smoke which is hazardous to human life.

Employment injury scheme and preventive of occupational accidents and disease prevention of occupational risks is becoming part of mendate of these scheme can play very important role in this purpose.Some workplace are prone to physical injuries and accidental chances are more than the workers should be strictly covered by compensation act.

HIV/AIDs prevention in informal sector can adopt the measures to prevent these disease in employees and multimedia can be used to spread awareness among workers and staff to safeguard against these disease.The legal interpretation in this case state that surgical operation should be carried out by strict compliance otherwise negligence can affect the other person with deadly disease.

Occupational safety and haelth inspection: Enforcement of legal provisions relating to conditions of works and protection of workers while engaged in their works and provisions of technical informations and advice to employer and workers concerning most efficient means of complying with legal provisions. Industrial labor laws cover maximum safety and security of workers but still there is lack of awareness of legal provisions and this gap can be filled by Multimedia.

ARTICLE 9:

1. The enforcement of law and regulations concerning occupational safety and health and working environment shall be secured by an ediquate and appropriate system of inspection.

2. The enforcement system legally provide for adequate penalties for violation of laws and regulations

Labor Inspection Convention 1947 (no 81):
