The National Advisory Council of Occupational Safety and Health (NACOSH), is concerned about the lack of safe accommodation for labourers and porters on Lorries and other vehicles.Chairman of the Council, Dale Beresford, said that this concern had been expressed to the Ministry of Labour, with a request for a more energetic policing of this aspect of occupational safety of this category of workers.He made this comment recently,Wholesale China Jerseys, in relation to the recent death by accident of one such worker on a motor lorry, in West Coast Berbice.In the case in point, the worker had been employed by the owner of a hardware store, and his job had been to load items bought by customers, onto a lorry, and offload same at various points along the Coast.The lorry on which he worked on that day, May 8 last,? was not equipped with protective side rails, and after loading the vehicle, the Porter sat on a piece of plywood on? top of the goods.Along the way,China NFL Jerseys, a gust of wind blew the sheet of plywood upward and the porter,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping, aged 19, was thrown off the moving lorry and onto the public road.The teenager was later identified as Premchand Harriprashad, aka Ravi. He was picked up in an unconscious state,Cheap NFL Jerseys, and subsequently died from the injuries he sustained.Commenting on the fatal incident, Beresford said that NACOSH was totally opposed to workers being exposed to such hazardous conditions while on the job.He observed that the sad fact,Cheap Jerseys Wholesale, was that many workers on lorries and agricultural equipment, both on the Coast and in the hinterland, were primarily concerned with earning an income.“They are concerned with getting a dollar to the point of either ignoring the danger, or hoping for the best,” he said.He added that in such circumstances, porters could fall off a vehicle,Cheap Authentic Jerseys, and the driver will continue driving, completely unaware that something bad had happened.He said that NACOSH was concerned about employers placing the job above the safety of their workers.He stressed that there were rules designed to protect porters and labourers who travel on vehicles, for the purpose of loading or offloading goods from these vehicles.“The specific West Berbice incident has been raised with the Ministry of Labour. We have asked them to investigate this, and we are hoping? for more energetic policing, with respect to the working conditions of this category of workers,” he said.

Preparations are “on track” for this year’s general elections, according to Dr Steve Surujbally,Cheap NHL Jerseys, Chairman of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM).Dr Surujbally’s declaration came yesterday following a criticism leveled at the Commission by the ruling People’s Progressive Party (PPP).The Commission is reportedly working toward an August/September date for the polls.Dr Steve Surujbally The PPP had said it was concerned that it is drawing close to the period of “Claims and Objections” but that the Commission is not meeting, due to lack of quorum. The party contended that this could affect the preparatory work for the upcoming elections.However, Dr Surujbally said that he was called Tuesday by the “author” of the PPP press release, who he assured that there was nothing to fear. Despite this, the PPP released its statement.“I can guarantee you…that we are on track,Wholesale Jerseys China,” Dr Surujbally declared as he met with scrutineers who would be monitoring the upcoming Claims and Objections exercise being conducted to ensure a clean and credible list of electors ahead of general elections.“We (the Commission) have an action plan,Cheap NFL Jerseys,’ Dr Surujbally assured, adding, “At this point in time I am not in the least worried.”He said that the Commission has given itself room for any slippages.Dr Surujbally did agree that there has been absenteeism on the part of Commissioners for statutory meetings, but he said this has not affected the work of the Commission.“At this point in time,Cheap NFL Jerseys, as we get things moving, I really don’t think there is that dreadful necessity (to have) commissioners meet often,” Surujbally asserted.He said that absenteeism is factual but does not impact the work of the Commission and its Secretariat “in any profound way.”“The secretariat in on tract and the Commission is overseeing what they are doing,” Dr Surujbally reiterated. He said that if there is a problem Commissioners can be telephoned or there could also be videoconferencing if Commissioners are overseas.The Commission is gearing to head into the Claims and Objections period to ensure a clean list that no one can quarrel with.Scrutineers from 31 political parties, who are paid by the government, have been invited to oversee the exercise.Dr Surujbally said that there could come a time when there is no need for scrutineers to “look over our shoulders” but said “that time is not now.”He said that he would wish to see a GECOM that is so credible that whatever GECOM does and the Secretariat and the staff do,Cheap Jerseys Online, that it would be accepted by the political leaders.“I think we have reached a far stage; I don’t think we have reached that level of belief that people have that conviction that GECOM is an office that ensures correctness at all times,Wholesale China Jerseys,” said Dr Surujbally.He said that the work of the scrutineers is important because it helps to keep the Commission “on the straight and narrow path.”Dr Surujbally boasted that he has an “A-Team” at the Secretariat to execute the task at hand.He said that the team at GECOM has honed its expertise to a point “where they can deliver that which can almost be mistake free.”He urged the scrutineers to relay to the Commission any problems that might emerge and not be quick to rush to the media as this could create an atmosphere of distrust or unease. He also urged parties to try their best to stick with the scrutineers they have named. Otherwise, he said, things get “messed up.”

The Ministry of Education, in partnership with the Guyana Community Based Rehabilitation Programme (GCBRP), on Wednesday began a sign language training project aimed at preparing the way for greater inclusion of deaf children in the school system.The name of the project is Train the Sign Language Trainer Initiative – Advancing Deaf Education.It was launched at the St. Stanislaus College, Brickdam, by Minister within the Education Ministry,Cheap Jerseys China, Dr Desrey Fox,Cheap NFL Jerseys, who explained to the 21 teachers present that at the end of the programme teachers will be equipped to give educational support to many deaf children.Dr. Fox said that her Ministry was happy to work with GCBRP which has the technical expertise to run such a project.The Support Group for Deaf Persons, a unit within GCBRP, will manage the project. The Group’s Director, Leon Walcott, explained to the teachers that the project has three components: a) sign language training b) methodology and c) implementation (special teacher placement for one term). It is expected to extend over 18 months.The sign language training will consist of two modules ‘Foundation’ and ‘Advanced’,Wholesale NHL Jerseys, each consisting of 20 two-hour sessions to be held after school hours. The methodology training will consist of an intensive two-week workshop from July 14 to July 25 and will be conducted by Dr. Bill Vicars of California State University, USA. The workshop will include training in computer assisted learning.The third phase is special placement of successful participants for one school term.Thirty teachers from 12 schools from Region Four are involved in the project. It is anticipated that by the beginning of the Christmas Term, the following schools will have teachers who can communicate with deaf children at the basic level: Covent Garden Nursery,Cheap Jerseys 2018, David Rose School for Handicapped Children, Diamond Special Needs, Friendship Secondary, Golden Grove Primary, Graham’s Hall Primary, Plaisance Primary, South Road Nursery, South Ruimveldt Park Primary, St. Paul’s Primary, St. Winefride’s Secondary and West Ruimveldt Primary.Dr Fox said that the project was timely since it is important for Guyana to have a pool of sign language specialists to train teachers who in turn will pass on their knowledge to their colleagues. She pledged her Ministry’s support and noted that initiatives such as this one will reduce the need to send persons abroad on scholarships, because the training would be available here.The project was conceptualised by a team from the Support Group for Deaf Persons comprising Mrs. Tricia Cummings Michael, Pastor Lawrence Hallahan, Mrs. Geraldine Maison Halls, Mrs. Sabine McIntosh and Mr. Leon Walcott. The Foundation Course will be supervised by Mrs. Tricia Cummings Michael and includes three deaf tutors – Khemrajie Dewan, Donetta Jardine and Nalini Mahabal. Other tutors are Mr. Montgomery Chester and Mr. Sean Thomas.The importance of this project is based on the fact that the delivery of education to school age children who are deaf or hard of hearing is lagging far behind that to hearing children.In addition,Wholesale Jerseys Cheap, average enrolment of deaf children is much lower than that of the general school population. Major contributing factors, apart from a lack of facilities,Cheap NFL Jerseys, are the shortage/absence of trained teachers, the lack of a special curriculum with supporting materials and, at a different level, the widely held misconception that deafness effectively ‘disables’ a person from achieving anything much in life.This reduces the value of a deaf person so that he or she becomes a liability rather than an asset to society.Sign language, which is a deaf child’s first language and crucial for its mental, emotional and social development, is not taught in the special needs programme for teacher trainees; neither do parents have access to sign language classes in their communities.So teachers as well as parents are severely limited in their efforts to adequately communicate and interact with, let alone teach, the deaf child.Dr. Fox also said the project will help deaf children to attain a better quality of education which is available across pre-school, primary, secondary and tertiary levels, and even outside of the formal institutions.
