Abstract:
Introduction and Aim: The metal working process has many hazards that the metal workers are exposed to resulting in several health disorders and diseases. However, there is a lack of documented information regarding the prevalence of ophthalmic safety practices and the factors influencing them among metal workers in the Moradabad region or the study area. The aim of the present study is to assess ocular morbidity patterns among the metal workers from an unorganized sector. Methods: We conducted this study to find out the morbidity patterns among the metal workers working in Northwestern Uttar Pradesh, district Moradabad. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 metal workers using a pre-validated structured questionnaire. Results: All the metal workers working, without any formal eye health and safety training. Eye Injury was the most common problem at work. The age of the metal workers, duration of employment & welding hours per day were associated with ocular morbidities among the metal workers. In this study, among 100 metal workers, 18% of workers were suffering from an occupational eye injury. 98% metal workers population don’t have any personal protective eye device.86% of them feel this protective eye device is not so necessary. Conclusion: There is a need for occupational health safety awareness services for metal workers in Moradabad as well as in Uttar Pradesh. While further research may be required to make policy recommendations, the current study provides a baseline morbidity burden among these mental workers to look for interventions to promote health and safety at work for this neglected unorganized group.

Abstract:
Introduction Female workers in textile and metal industry are exposed to various physical and chemical hazards that can lead to the occurrence of gynaecological diseases. Objective The aim of this study was to estimate the frequency of gynaecological diseases among workers of textile and metal industries. METHOD The investigation comprised 197 female workers, 148 from textile and 49 from metal industry, aged from 26 to 57 years. All subjects were hospitalized based on non-gynaecological diagnoses. Gynaecological diagnoses included: tumours of the genital organs and breasts, cervical ectopy and lacerations, inflammatory diseases, disturbances of static of genital organs, cysts, and irregularities of menstrual cycle. Results Textile workers were significantly younger than metal workers, but the groups were comparable according to total and exposure work-time, qualifications and diagnosis on hospital admission. Gynaecological diseases were diagnosed among all investigated subjects. About 80% were diagnosed with tumours and inflammatory diseases. A highly statistically significant difference was observed among groups according to the presence of cervical ectopy and lacerations, which were more frequent among textile workers. Conclusion Comparison of gynaecological status of workers revealed that, among textile workers, cervical ectopy and lacerations were more frequent than among workers in metal industry. .

Abstract:
Abstract The purpose of the project is to promote occupational health among workers in the informal sector in Kenya. It started with work on prevention of exposure to high noise among metal workers. A group of 60 workers where provided with protective devices and training on health hazards associated with exposure to high noise. From the proceedings with a group of metal workers, we obtained a good picture on the challenges faced by the workers in the informal sector. As a follow-up to this first project, we are working on providing solutions that will contribute in reducing the noise levels. The workers do, for example, all the metal cutting with a chisel and a hammer, and further shaping by other crude tools, which are a major source of the high noise. We are looking at providing alternatives such as metal pressers to reduce the noise level. In addition, to the metal workers, we have started with providing training to three other groups in the sector: construction workers, carpenters and joinery, and another small group metals workers with a bit different product focus than the first group.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction Metal workers in small scale industries are involved in different metal fabrications activities using scraps and metals. They produce metal products such as pans, basins, spoons, boards, boxes, cookers, baking items and spoons. These metal fabrication activities produce noise. Noise is unwanted, unpleasant and louder sound which results in adverse health effects. Loud intensity and repeated long term exposure of noise may cause hearing loss among metal workers.The aim of this study was to determine noise exposure level and create a basis for improving adverse health effects related to the noise levels among metal workers in small scale industries in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Methods This was a cross-sectional study design, conducted among 66 metal workers from three small scale industrial workers in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Personal noise measurement was done using personal noise dosimeter (Brüel and Kjær type 4448) at average time of 7 hours and 48 minutes. Results and discussion The average equivalent noise level and peak noise level among metal workers in small scale industrial workers were 94.6dBA (S. D=5.5) and 138.8dBA (S. D= 4.4) respectively. The average equivalent noise level ranges from 90.7dBA to 99.3dBA and mean exposure level was significantly different among the small scale industries. Discussion and conclusion High noise levels were reported in this study and they were all above occupational exposure limit of 85dBA. Thus these workers may develop hearing loss and other health problems at this workplace.

Abstract:
The largest UK outbreak of respiratory disease in metalworking fluid (MWF) exposed workers (Powertrain) led to a heightened awareness of the health hazards associated with MWF. A literature review identified 29 outbreaks of ill health associated with MWF exposure with a peak incidence between 1996 and 2000. Microbial contamination was suspected but no unifying causative agent could be found. Six different case definitions for extrinsic allergic alveolitis (EAA) were indentified, only one of which was validated. The process of developing an evidence based case definition for MWF-EAA required the identification of a group of patients with unequivocal MWF associated EAA. The Powertrain database (created at the time of the outbreak and subsequent follow up appointments) was utilised and an Expert Panel of five occupational lung disease consultants concluded that there was sufficient clinical evidence to diagnose 14 workers as definite cases of EAA. By calculating the positive predictive value of the data points relevant to a diagnosis of EAA combined with knowledge and experience of previous EAA diagnostic criteria, it was possible to develop a new evidence-based EAA diagnostic score (the MWF EAA Score). The MWF EAA Score was applied to the Powertrain data demonstrating agreement with the Expert Panel opinion in over 80% of the cases with a greater number of workers correctly classified than with other published diagnostic criteria1. The score was also applied to previously published case series of workers diagnosed with MWF EAA, in order to externally validate the new EAA rating system. The MWF EAA Score appeared to perform well and there was sufficient data provided in almost half of these published cases indicating that the MWF EAA Score would have shown agreement. This scoring system is a simple and reproducible tool and provides an evidence-based case definition suitable for use in future UK outbreaks.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis will consider the economic and social lives of women who were engaged in Sheffield's metal trades. The timeframe for this research - c.1742-1867 - is significant as 1742 saw the introduction of the crucible method of producing steel and the invention of Old Sheffield Plate. The introduction of the Bessemer converter and large-scale production of steel took place in the 1860s. Sheffield's metal trades constituted a distinctive working context due to the continuation of the workshop-based production, subdivision of labour and the organisation of the industry through the Cutlers' Company. Women's contribution to the labour force during the Industrial Revolution has been the focus of studies since Ivy Pinchbeck's book Women Workers and the Industrial Revolution 1750-1850 was published in 1930, yet still, historians acknowledge the unresolved issues of the scale and nature of women's participation. This study contributes to these debates by considering an industry in which women were a minority in the workforce, and will include analysis of businesswomen and of women employed in the metal trades. These women faced restrictions through a lack of training, discourse against them, and a lack of organisational change by the Cutlers' Company. Despite these restrictions, the metal trades offered some women relatively high wages compared with other industries, although not always a stable form of employment. Women worked in a variety of roles often, but not exclusively, associated with the finishing processes of metal goods. Family was important in this working context, and could bring opportunities to women's working lives. This working environment could enable women's domestic and working roles to be combined. Although women were a minority within the metal trades, their experiences reflected diversity within this group.

Abstract:
Objectives: The objectives of this study were to establish the extent of dermal and respiratory exposure at selected locations at a South African platinum mine. The study included exposure to lead oxide fumes in an assay laboratory, nickel sulfate powder at a nickel sulfate crystallizer circuit and packing site and metallic copper dust whilst executing copper stripping. Methods: In an availability study, the dermal metal exposures were measured before, during and at the end of shifts. Dermal exposure samples were taken with GhostwipesTM from the dominant hand, wrist and forehead. Wipes were analyzed using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES). Wipe samples were taken from surfaces in the workplace and analyzed according to NIOSH 9102, using ICP-AES. Personal and static inhalable dust samples were taken and the dust samples were analyzed according to NIOSH 7300, using ICP-AES. A validated questionnaire was used to evaluate self reported dermatological complaints of the workers at the fire assay laboratory and base metal recovery plant. Results: 100% of the nickel respiratory exposures and 36.8% of the lead respiratory exposures were above the occupational exposure limits (OEL). Copper respiratory exposure was present but less significant with a geometric mean of 0.071 mg m-3. All of the dermal lead measurements and the majority of the nickel and copper dermal measurements were below the limit of detection. Nickel surface contamination was the most significant and ranged between 8.430 μg cm-2 and 387.488 μg cm-2. Only 30% of the copper surface sample results were below the detection limit with a maximum surface sample of 14.41 μg cm-2. Lead surface contamination was low with 90% of the samples below the limit of detection. All of the workers at the nickel crystallizer circuit and packing site had a Dalgard score above 1.3 and therefore are at a higher risk of developing a skin disease. None of the workers at the copper stripping site had a significant Dalgard score and only one worker at the fire assay laboratory had a score above 1.3 and therefore is at a higher risk of developing a skin disease. Conclusions: Recommendations were made to lower the exposure to inhalable lead and nickel. The low lead dermal measurements may be due to adequate personal protective equipment usage and hygiene practices. Although the ethnicity of the workers may be the reason for the low incidence of dermatological complaints, the Dalgard score indicated that five workers are at risk of developing skin diseases.

Abstract:
A metalsmith�s ability to turn stone into metal and mould metal into useable objects, is one of the most valuable production industries of any society. The conception of this metallurgical knowledge has been the major catalyst in the development of increasing socio-political complexity since the beginning of the Bronze Age (Childe, 1930). However, when considering the prehistory of Southeast Asia, especially Thailand, it is noted that the introduction of metallurgical activity, namely copper and bronze technology, did not engender the increase in social complexity witnessed in other regions. It is suggested that the region is anomalous in that terms and concepts developed to describe and define Bronze Ages by scholars working in other regions, lack strict analogues within Southeast Asia. Muhly (1988) has famously noted the non-compliance of Southeast Asia to previous models, "In all other corners of the Bronze Age world-China, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, the Aegean and central Europe-we find the introduction of bronze technology associated with a complex of social, political and economic developments that mark the rise of the state. Only in Southeast Asia, especially in Thailand and Vietnam, do these developments seem to be missing" (Muhly, 1988:16). This "rise of the state" is associated with the development of hierarchy, inequality, and status differentiation, evidence for which, it is argued, is most explicitly articulated in mortuary contexts (Bacus, 2006). Evidence would include an intra-site restriction in access to resources, including prestige goods, and ranking, a vertical differentiation, often related to interment wealth. Thus the introduction of metallurgical technology saw copper and other prestige goods, used to entrench authority and advertise status (Coles and Harding; 1979). Such evidence has so far been absent in Bronze Age, Southeast Asian contexts. Accordingly, the usefulness of the term "Bronze Age" for describing and defining Southeast Asian assemblages has been questioned (White, 2002). However, the Ban Non Wat discovery of wealthy Bronze Age interments, with bronze grave goods restricted to the wealthiest, has furrowed the brow of many working in the region, providing evidence to at least reconsider this stance. Despite its obvious importance in shaping Bronze Age societies around the globe, and now, significance in Northeast Thailand, very little is known of the acceptance, development, and spread of tin-bronze metallurgical techniques during the prehistory of Southeast Asia. Only a handful of investigations of archaeological sites in the region have investigated the use of metals beyond macroscopic cataloguing. Utilising an agential framework, the Ban Non Wat bronze metallurgical evidence has been investigated as an entire assemblage, from the perspective of the individual metalsmith, in order to greater understand the industry and its impact upon the society incorporating the new technology. Furthermore, mortuary data is investigated by means of wealth assessment, as an insight into social form throughout the corresponding period of adoption, development and spread of metallurgy. The bivalent study of society and technology has shed light on the development of socio-political, and economic complexity during Bronze Age Southeast Asia, and in doing so, outlined the direct impact the metalsmiths themselves had on the supply, spread and functioning of their important industry. Variabilities in grave �wealth,� have been identified at Ban Non Wat. A further situation not previously encountered in Bronze Age Southeast Asia, is the restriction of bronze goods, in death, to differentiated, wealthy individuals. The existence of such individuals suggests that society during this period was rather more complex than regional precedents would suggest. I contend that it is the introduction of metallurgy, and in particular, the nature in which it was conducted that engendered these developments. Therefore, when considering the traditional course of developing social-political complexity during the Bronze Age, it now seems that Thailand at least, is potentially, not that anomalous.

Abstract:
Various hazardous chemical substances are used daily in the platinum refineries. This study was conducted in order to determine whether platinum refinery workers’ exposure to HCl and Cl2, two of the hazardous chemical substances, could damage the skin barrier function (i.e. skin hydration, trans–epidermal water loss and skin surface pH) of these workers. The participants of this study were fourteen workers that were exposed to HCl and Cl2, constituting the exposed group, and a control group that was made up of ten workers located in another building detached from the plant. Due to the fact that some of the workers in the exposed group used barrier creams, the exposed group was further divided into two groups, namely the barrier cream (BC) and non–barrier cream (nBC) groups. Workers’ skin barrier function was measured on six distinct anatomical skin areas, including indirectly exposed skin (i.e. palm, wrist and back of the hand that was covered with protective gloves) and directly exposed skin (i.e. neck, cheek and forehead). These skin measurements were conducted before, during and at the end of shifts, while airborne personal and area HCl and Cl2 exposure were concurrently assessed. The results of this study indicated that indirectly exposed skin of the exposed group was dehydrated, and only Cl2 exposure contributed to a disrupted skin barrier function on the back of the hand. Due to limited correlations with skin hydration, it remained unclear whether HCl and Cl2 exposure had an influence on skin hydration. The palm of the exposed group had abnormally high TEWL levels, but only HCl contributed to the palm’s damaged skin barrier function. Skin surface pH for indirectly and directly exposed skin was found to be within the normal range, but both HCl and Cl2 exposure contributed towards a decrease in skin surface pH for the directly exposed skin of the exposed group. It also remained unclear whether barrier creams enhanced the exposed group’s skin barrier. This lack of certainty can most likely be ascribed to the small participant group. Additional factors such as the use of latex gloves, continuous washing and scrubbing of hands, and contact with contaminated personal protective equipment and workplace surfaces could also have contributed to an impaired skin barrier. Workers in the platinum refinery industry are potentially exposed to chlorinated platinum salts, and an impaired skin barrier may result in skin permeation thereof, which could lead to sensitisation and allergy. It is, however, recommended that washing facilities need to be improved; personal hygiene procedures and skin aftercare need to be emphasised during training sessions; and neoprene gloves need to be used to reduce the allergy risk of latex gloves.

Resumo: No Brasil do século XX, ao longo do período de 1954 a 1964, o cenário nacional foi palco de pelo menos três crises - política, social e econômica - marcadas pelo suicídio de Getúlio Vargas em 1954, pela renúncia de Jânio Quadros em 1961 e pelo golpe militar de 1964. No decorrer destes anos, num processo que se inaugurou em contextos anteriores, é possível observar a formação de uma classe operária no Brasil, em virtude da ampliação do parque industrial nacional. No sudeste brasileiro, sobretudo, na região metropolitana de São Paulo, inúmeras indústrias multinacionais da cadeia produtiva do automóvel se instalaram nas cidades do ABC paulista, atraídas por um mercado consumidor com demanda reprimida, por amplos incentivos alfandegários e creditícios dados pelo governo brasileiro, bem como, por uma volumosa oferta de mão-de-obra nas cidades abastecida pelo êxodo rural. Esse contexto histórico foi terreno fértil à gênese do discurso ideológico nacional desenvolvimentista, segundo o qual, numa perspectiva evolucionista, o Brasil superaria a condição de subdesenvolvimento através da participação do Estado, dos capitais privados nacionais e dos capitais estrangeiros. Ideologicamente, o tripé - ordem, progresso e soberania - daria sustentação ao pacto social que se pretendia construir entre as classes sociais. No processo de urbanização e industrialização, nos moldes fordistas/tayloristas, inseridos no contexto de modernização da nação, os sindicatos operários e os Partidos disputaram os rumos da classe trabalhadora no Brasil, a qual se formou como um novo mosaico étnicolregional, composto, sobretudo, por migrantes nacionais vindos das zonas rurais do país. Por meio da história oral e da memória, este estudo buscou analisar as experiências e as estratégias de resistência de quatorze ex-metalúrgicos, ao longo do processo de re-enraizamento vivenciado com a migração para as cidades de São Paulo e ABC paulista, no interior do mundo do trabalho de 1954 a 1964. A análise das memórias dos sujeitos desta história permitiu perceber que esse processo de ressocialização vivido pelo migrante rural, esteve marcado tanto pela sujeição aos valores dominantes da sociedade de destino, bem como pelas pequenas recusas à modemidade brasileira. Fincando raizes em terra nova, esses migrantes-operários depararam-se com as engrenagens da fábrica fordistaltaylorista instalatla no Brasil, na vivência de um medo difícil de definir e de um tempo que se tomou produto raro. No interior dessas relações sociais marcadas pelo trabalho estranhado/alienado, os depoentes deste estudo, concebidos como sujeitos ativos 'sob as condições objetivas dadas, criaram práticas sociais de resistência às formas de opressão vivenciadas no chão de fábrica, e fora dele. Levando-se em consideração não só o cenário macroestrutural, mas, principalmente, a dinâmica subjetiva e simbólica do trabalho, a análise das memórias de ex-operários, que se empregaram em diferentes indústrias metalúrgicas da cadeia produtiva de automóveis, lançaram luzes sobre as relações conflitivas da vida cotidiana no mundo moderno, evidenciando uma contínua tentativa destes sujeitos de transpor a condição de máquinas de trabalho
Abstract: In Brazil, during the twentieth century, from 1954 to 1964, the country went through at least three crisis: political, social, and economical. These were marked by Getúlio Vargas' suicide in 1954, by Jânio Quadros' resignation in 1961, and by the military coup in 1964. In the course ofthese years, in a process that started in previous contexts, it is possible to observe the formation of a working class in Brazil, due to the enlargement of the national industrial park. In the southeast of Brazil, above ali, in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, a countless number of multinacional industries from the automobile productive chain have settled in the ABC Paulista cities, attracted by a consumer market with a repressed demand, by broad custom incentives and credit given by the Brazilian govemment, as well as, by a sizeable labour offer in the cities supplied by the rural exodus . This historical context was a fertile terrain for the genesis of the national-<1evelopmental ideologicaldiscourse, according to which, in an evolutionary perspective, Brazil would overcome the underdeveloped condition through the participation of the state, of the national private capital, and of the foreign capital. Ideologically, the tripod-order, progresso and sovereignty-would give support to the social pact that was intended to be built among the social classes. In the process of urbanization and industrialization, in the FordITaylor pattem, inserted in the modemization context of the nation, the unions and the political parties disputed the course of the working class in Brazil, which was formed as a new ethnical-regional mosaic, made up of, above ali, national migrants coming from the rural areas of the country. Through the oral history" and the memory, this study tried to analyse the experiences and the strategies of resistence of fourteen ex-metalworkers, through the adaption process experienced with the migration to the cities of São Paulo and ABC Paulista, inside the labour world from 1954 to 1964. The analysis of the memories from the subjects of this history allowed me to notice that this resocialization process experienced by the rural migrant, was marked as much by the subjection to the dominant values from the society as by the insignificant refusals to the Brazilian modemity. Establishing roots in the new land, these migrant workers carne across the mechanisms of the Fordffaylor factory installed in Brazil, living with a fear difficult to define, and time which became arare product. In the core of these social relations marked by the strange/alienated work, the witnesses from this study, conceived as active subjects under the oDjective conditions given, created social practices of resistence to the forms of oppression experienced in and out of the factories. T aking into consi~eration, not only the macro-structural scenery, but, mainly, the subjective and symbolic dynamics of work, the analysis of the memories from ex-workers, who worked for different metallurgical industries from the automobile productive chain, throwed lights on the conflicting relations of the everyday life in the modem world, showing a continuous attempt from these subjects to overcome the condition of working machines

Resumo: O propósito desta dissertação de mestrado é realizar um estudo sobre o que se convencionou denominar, nos anos 90 e início dos anos 2000, a ¿esquerda da CUT¿, a partir de três dos mais importantes representantes dessa fração do movimento sindical brasileiro: os sindicatos dos metalúrgicos de Campinas, Limeira e São José dos Campos. O objetivo específico é analisar a prática concreta dessas entidades e seus resultados na defesa dos trabalhadores de suas bases. O objetivo geral da dissertação é, por sua vez, oferecer, ao debate sobre o sindicalismo brasileiro nos anos 90 e 2000, elementos empíricos e uma discussão teórica sobre a prática sindical ¿não propositiva¿, estes relativamente ausentes na produção nacional sobre a questão sindical. Os resultados da pesquisa apontam para a positividade das táticas e da estratégia das entidades estudadas, cujo norte foi a resistência à qualquer redução de direitos, a manutenção de um discurso classista e da crítica sistemática ao neoliberalismo, além da ênfase na organização e na formação política dos trabalhadores. Os resultados positivos foram verificados empiricamente a partir da análise dos acordos coletivos e da observação da manutenção de índices significativos de sindicalização. A esses, soma-se a negação da premissa segundo a qual ¿não há alternativa¿ à acomodação e moderação do sindicalismo brasileiro imposta pela conjuntura desfavorável aos trabalhadores, que suporte a pressão e o poder ¿dos mercados¿. Por outro lado, os resultados apontam também para as dificuldades colocadas aos sindicatos estudados, que decorreram, em grande medida, do processo de aprofundamento da exploração capitalista e do aumento do desemprego e da precarização do trabalho com a implementação de novas técnicas de gestão e do avanço das políticas neoliberais, cujos resultados mais visíveis foram: a dificuldade de realizar mobilizações significativas e de incorporar novos militantes, em especial os mais jovens, a falta de rotatividade da diretoria e a impossibilidade de refrear a tendência à burocratização das entidades. Enfim, a limitação da ação sindical ao campo da resistência
Abstract: The purpose of this dissertation is to exam the ¿CUT leftwing¿, through the analysis of the tree most important representatives of this section of Brazilian unionism: the Metal Trade Union of Campinas, of Limeira and of São José dos Campos. The main purpose is to analyze the concrete practices of these unions and its results in the defense of workers. The general objective is, on turn, to offer, to the academic debate about Brazilian unionism, some empirical aspects and a theorical analysis about the ¿non propositive¿ union practice, relatively absent in the national literature on unionism. The research¿s results point out the benefits of the strategy and tactics of the studied unions whose objectives were the resistance to any right's reduction, the maintenance of class perspective, a strong anti-neoliberal perspective and the emphasis on worker's organization and political training. Those gains were empirically verified, specially, through the analysis of collective bargaining agreements and the maintenance of a significant union density. In addition, there is the refusal of the idea that ¿there is no alternative¿ to the unions¿ adjustment and moderation caused by the unfavorable worker's situation. Besides the research results also point out the difficulties posed to the leftist union¿s leaders by the deepening of capitalist exploitation processes and the increasing unemployment and work degradation fostered by new management techniques and the advance of neoliberal politics. These difficulties are related to organizing significant mobilizations and to have new militants, specially younger workers joining in, the lack of union¿s leaders regular rotation and the impossibility to avoid union¿s burocratization tendencies. In short, the limitation of union¿s action to the field of resistance

The present paper studies how two newspapers reported the strikes of 1978, 1979 and 1980, the two newspapers we chose for this were ABCD Jornaland Folha de S. Paulo, the choice of these strikes is due to its repercussion in the media and its unfolding by its leaders in the creations of a political party and a workers, Folha de S. Pauloand ABCD Jornalnewspapers were our sources of research. The Folhathat defended the military civilian regime at its birth will be an opponent of the created legislations and seeks to break with the imposed regime, but always maintaining a legalistic stance, the ABCD Jornalwill have a distinct path some of its idealizers started their fight against the dictatorship imposed on the Brazil with clandestine actions and formation of guerrilla groups, after their arrests this group began a rapprochement of the trade union movement, denouncing the ills suffered by the works through the newspaper that constructed the ABCD Jornal, this will have like the leaf a legalistic stance, each interpreting to the strike movement from his point of view
O presente trabalho tem por intuito o estudo de como dois jornais noticiaram as greves de 1978, 1979 e 1980. Os dois jornais escolhidos como fonte de pesquisa foram o ABCD Jornale Folha de S. Paulo.A escolha destas greves como foco do estudo se deu devido a sua repercussão na mídia e seus desdobramentos por parte de seus lideres na criação de um partido político e uma Central dos Trabalhadores. O jornal A Folha,que defendeuo regime civil militar em seu nascimento, será um opositor das legislações criadas e busca romper com o regime imposto, porém, sempre mantendo uma postura legalista. O ABCD Jornalterá um caminho distinto, pois alguns de seus idealizadores iniciaram sua luta contra a ditadura imposta no Brasil com ações clandestinas e com a formação de grupo guerrilheiro. Após suas prisões este grupo iniciou uma reaproximação do movimento sindical, denunciando as mazelas sofridas pelos trabalhadores através do jornal que construíram o ABCD Jornal. O ABCD Jornal teve, assim como a Folha, uma postura legalista, cada um interpretando a lei sob seu ponto e vista

Abstract:
AbstractTransitions into precariousness and labour market exclusion in late professional career need to be understood from the perspective of individual biographies unfolding in relation to historical developments, social structures and social changes.The generation born in the 1950’s in Europe, now nearing retirement, has lived through periods of economic affluence and welfare state expansion, but also of macro-economic shocks, deindustrialization, and neo-liberal slimming of public social structures. These changes were concurrent with accelerated digitalization and restructuring of work organizations.This chapter illustrates transitions into unemployment and precariousness among older men in the context of economic downturn and organizational restructuring in a sector particularly exposed to the effects of neo-liberal globalization- the metal industry. We go on to show how in two different organizational-institutional realities countries, such as Portugal and Sweden these workers are exposed to different mechanisms that paved the way out of secure employment into insecure employment and precarious positions in the labour market.

Abstract:
At the end of the First World War, Susan began to take a serious interest in psychoanalysis, then a relatively new science. The revelations of Sigmund Freud of the importance of the unconscious in determining human behaviour were receiving more and more publicity, promoted as they were by his English disciple, Ernest Jones. Susan travelled to Vienna for a brief psychoanalysis by Otto Rank, one of Freud’s closest disciples. In December 1921, she was elected an Associate Member of the British Psychoanalytical Society and began to attend its meetings. Meanwhile, her marriage had gradually come apart. Her husband’s work in Hertfordshire meant that, from the end of the war, she spent more time apart from him. The other reasons for the breakup of the marriage are not clear but, by the end of 1920 she had begun a relationship with a student, Nathan Isaacs, on one of her Workers Educational Association courses. Nathan, born in 1895, had come to England from Central Europe at the age of twelve years. Although working in the metal industry, he had strong intellectual interests in philosophy and psychology. By the end of 1922, Susan was divorced and remarried to Nathan. She had also established herself both as an academic psychologist and a practising psychoanalyst. In 1921, she published An Introduction to Psychology, an excellent overview of the subject. By the end of 1923, she was a full member of the British Psychoanalytical Society and had started to take on patients in private practice.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter compares the evolution of day-to-day, informal, workplace learning and work-based training arrangements in the metals sector in Bulgaria and Spain’s Basque region. The latter’s advanced, industrialised economic model is rather different from other Spanish regions. Basque country institutions successfully link vocational education with labour market needs; Bulgaria’s state educational system is poor at delivering skills. The Basque studies are both in the region’s important cooperative sector. The Bulgarian companies (both domestic subsidiaries of multinationals) developed in global value chains; they have recently introduced in-house training to cope with a shortage of qualified labour. Using qualitative methods, the chapter shows how organisational and individual agency provide space for informal workplace learning and what outcomes this has for early career workers.

Abstract:
Over the last two decades, an increasing number of highway construction and maintenance projects in the United States have been completed at night to avoid or alleviate traffic congestion delays. Working at night entails several advantages, including lower traffic volumes, less impact on local businesses, cooler temperatures for equipment and material, and fewer overall crashes. Although nighttime roadway operations may minimize traffic disruptions, there are several safety concerns about passing motorists and workers in the nighttime work zone. For instance, improper lighting arrangements or excessive lighting levels at the job site could cause harmful levels of glare for the traveling public and workers, which can lead to an increased level of hazards and crashes in the vicinity of the work zone. To address the issue of glare, the current report focuses on determining and evaluating disability glare on nighttime work zones in order to develop appropriate strategies for improving the safety of workers and motorists during nighttime highway construction and maintenance projects. Disability glare is the glare that impairs our vision of objects without necessarily causing discomfort, and it can be evaluated using the veiling luminance ratio (VL ratio). In this study, disability glare values were determined by using lighting data (vertical illuminance and pavement luminance measurements) from the testing of 49 lighting arrangements. Two LED balloon lights, a metal-halide light tower, and an LED light tower were utilized for the field lighting experiments. The glare assessment analyzed the effects of the lighting system setup’s parameters, such as the mounting height, power output, rotation angle, and aiming angle of luminaires on the veiling luminance ratio values (which is a criterion for limiting disability glare). The study revealed the following key findings: (1) an increase in mounting heights of both balloon lights and light towers resulted in lower disability glare levels; (2) compared to the "perpendicular" and "away" orientations, orienting the light towers "towards" the traffic (45 degrees) significantly increases the disability glare levels of the lighting arrangement; and (3) increasing the tilt angles of portable light tower luminaries resulted in an increase in disability glare levels.
