please complete my answer to be 500 words...

Safety is done by taking some precautions like avoidance of iritant through its removal from workplace or through technical shielding by the use of potent irritant in closed systems or automations ,,, improve the related laws about health safety, by taking care of adaptation and adjustment of workers.

All workers should wear mask on face.

They should always wash their hands with hand wash, or use sanitizers if handwash is not available..

Avoid contact with people who are seems to b unhealthy or having cold like symptoms  

They should always use tissue papers for cleaning nose or use tisse papers during sneezing for closing the nose.

1)...

Epidemic disease like weil syndrome, yellow fever, bubonic plague, influenza, small pox, chicken pox, typhus, syndemic infection, hepatitis B and D.

Pendamic- cholera, covid 19, ebola, influenza etc.

2) by taking the same precautions which are written above according to particular disease.

3) labour inspection

Training and education about safety

Develop a safety compliance plan.

1.Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are the leading cause of mortality from infectious disease worldwide,it's affecting the youngest and oldest people in middle-income nations. These infections, typically caused by viruses or mixed viral– bacterial infections. In modern medicine, infection prevention and control (IPC) measures in health-cares are of central importance to the safety of patients, health-care workers and the environment. In an era of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, IPC in health care is as important now as ever. The management of ARIs is no exception. Because many symptoms of ARIs are common and nonspecific, the application of IPC measures for ARIs in health care can be fraught with difficulty and confusion, especially in outbreaks where resources may be strained. Yet such measures, including early identification, prompt isolation precautions, proper patient placement and adequate ventilation, are essential to contain the impact of pathogens that may constitute a major public health threat. To address the need for clear advice on applying IPC measures for ARIs, these guidelines focus on recommendations for non-pharmacologica aspects of IPC for ARIs in health care. This is intended for IPC professionals and members of IPC teams, health-care managers and policy-makers. The secondary audience is health-care workers, including doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, auxiliary and community health workers, and others involved in provision of health care. Given that etiological diagnosis is often not achievable, these guidelines prioritize a syndromic and epidemiological approach for assessing risks of infection and application of additional IPC measures. Special emphasis is placed on ARIs that can present as epidemics or pandemics. It was considered to review and incorporate from WHO that specifically notify to use of vaccines and antivirals for influenza are the WHO guidelines for the use of seasonal influenza vaccine in humans and the WHO guidelines for pharmacological management of pandemic (H1N1) influenza and other influenza viruses. Recommendations in the current guidelines that refer to the use of vaccines and antivirals are based on these method. Infection prevention and control of epidemic- and pandemic-prone acute respiratory infections relevant research data that have become available since publication of the interim guidelines in 2007. The important changes that were made to these guidelines as a result relate to the duration of additional isolation precautions, vaccination of health-care workers against influenza, antiviral prophylaxis for health-care workers exposed to ARIs, and environmental ventilation.The additional precautions for patients with all ARIs should be maintained for the duration of symptomatic illness

• Vaccination of health-care workers for those caring for patients at high risk of complicated influenza illness (rather than for all health-care workers, as was previously recommended); and • The antiviral prophylaxis should not routinely be given to health-care workers exposed to ARIs.

• An outline of the main components of preparedness plans for health-care facilities to prevent and control ARI outbreaks that may constitute an international public health concern

The Department of Pandemic and Epidemic Diseases at the WHO headquarters in Geneva, along with its internal Executive summary Infection prevention and control of epidemic- and pandemic-prone acute respiratory infections will be responsible for coordinating the guideline update, following the WHO handbook for guideline development procedures.

As a health worker I can protect my self-form disease by:

• Maintain the infection control guidelines in your workplace.
• Using protective gear, such as gloves, goggles, and/or masks.
• Treating all blood and body fluids as though they are infectious.
• Handling and disposing of needles and sharp instruments correctly.
• Getting immunized for necessary vaccines.

Public health is one of the greatest things in which a government can invest. Early prevention, which is relatively inexpensive, can prevent dire and expensive health care problems later in life.

Early in their development, both Minnesota and the United States recognized the role of the government in protecting the public's health, and each entity makes reference to this in their constitutions as part of a "general welfare" clause. Public health promotes the welfare of the entire population, ensures its security & protects it from the spread of infectious disease and environmental hazards, and helps to ensure access to safe and quality care to benefit the population.

Governmental responsibilities for public health extend beyond voluntary activities and services to include additional authorities such as quarantine, mandatory immunization laws, and regulatory authorities.
