Multiple sclerosis, also known as MS, is one of humankind’s most mysterious diseases. No one knows the exact cause and there is no exact treatment. Still multiple sclerosis has the ability to affect nearly 3 million people worldwide and at least 500,000 people in the United States (Boroch). This disease tends to be more common in individuals of northern European descent and women are more than twice as likely to develop multiple sclerosis as men. Of those 3 million people, most of them are between the ages of 20 and 50 years old (Dangond). Even though multiple sclerosis is a mystery disease, scientists are working to determine the exact cause and treatment.

Cleaning products, chemicals, first aid supplies must be clearly and correctly labeled. Any substances that are deemed harmful such as irritants and toxic or corrosive substances must not be used unless a risk assessment has been carried out and a procedure in place for its use.

Educational establishments must have in place appropriate measures to ensure that the risks to the health and safety of pupils/students from exposure to hazardous substances are minimised.

• Those hazards and risks that can be resolved without delay; must be done immediately. I.e. drying wet floor

| Describe the different types of technical, product and regulatory information, their source and how they are interpreted.

Multiple sclerosis, or MS, is a disease of the central nervous system. The central nervous system is made up of the brain and spinal cord. Both have nerve fibers that are wrapped in a myelin sheath. In MS, the myelin sheath becomes inflamed and gradually is destroyed. With the destruction of the myelin sheath comes an array of symptoms that may include numbness or tingling, balance problems, weakness, muscle spasms, and blurred vision.

M.A.D.D. is a political interest group for all mothers against drunk driving. It was specifically created for mothers of kids who have fallen victim to drunk drivers, whether it be in injury or in death. Founded on September 5th 1980, M.A.D.D. has made a huge impact on the government today and an even bigger impact on society. The idea of M.A.D.D. was first introduced by a mother, Candice Lightner, who lost her thirteen year old daughter in a car accident killed by an intoxicated driver. She took action and initiative after the loss of her daughter to help prevent drunk driving accidents so other parents wouldn’t have to go through the grief of the loss of a loved one, especially their son or daughter. Whether it be spreading awareness,

In Source B (video), the woman explains these many different chemicals in these kinds of products in which some contain chemicals that affect even the central nervous system and the body in such ways that if anymore of that chemical or toxin is put inside the body it can cause that person to become extremely sick especially with allergies. It is said that scientists actually tested these chemicals in which some have turned out to be even acidic and very dangerous in some

This project ‘Grocery store’ will focus on small aspect of the grocery enterprise simulating a customer buying items by selecting them on a form as if taking them from the shelves. They can then see their subtotal and tax and finish the transaction. A store employee level user can view certain reports on inventory, customer activity and personal information using data stored in the tables. Employees will also have to log in to use the system. Their information will appear in reports that managers run.

Aiii) – Health and Safety Act & Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002

Multiple Sclerosis, commonly known as MS is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Scientists have been studying MS since the 19th century. In MS, the body’s immune system produces cells and antibodies that attack myelin in your brain which is essential for the nerves in your brain and spinal cord to conduct electricity to perform its function. The attack on myelin results in vison loss, paralysis, numbness, muscle weakness, difficulty walking, stiffness, spasms, and bladder and bowel problems. MS has varying degrees of severity and affects people between the ages of 20-50, mostly women. Although there are treatments, there is no cause and cure yet.

According to research, once the chemicals are released into the air, water, or the soil, it can cause a decline in health, which can possibly result in death. About three quarters of the chemicals that comes out

It is also a major responsibility of leaders and workers in labs to ensure their Safety Data Sheets are kept up to date and accurate in order to ensure they have accurate information about the chemicals being used. The potential inaccuracy of these sheets greatly surprised me while reading this chapter. It seems crazy to me that companies and people are legally required to have Safety Data Sheets, but there are no laws regarding the accuracy of these sheets. Therefore, one of my big takeaways from this chapter is to look for reliable Safety Data Sheets instead of always just using the first one I can find

Multiple Sclerosis is an autoimmune disorder where the myelin sheath within the Central Nervous System is attacked (National Multiple Sclerosis Society, 2017). The myelin sheath protects the axon of the nerve cell. When the myelin sheath is intact, the axon is able to carry impulses away from the neuron’s cell body, and the message carried is clear. With Multiple Sclerosis, the myelin sheath becomes scarred, hence the word “sclerosis”, and distorts the nerve impulses traveling over the CNS (National Multiple Sclerosis Society, 2017). This may cause the message to be changed or stopped altogether.

Hazardous chemicals include flammable liquids, acids, gases and solvents. This should all be included in the Production Risk Assessment for each performance and should state each substance that is to be used. The substances should be used in accordance with requirements set out in the Safety Data Sheet included in the risk assessments.
