Throughout the workday, people use their hands to open doors, write reports, shake hands with clients, etc. All these activities expose you to harmful germs and bacteria, and now in the midst of a worldwide Covid-19 epidemic, proper hygiene and disinfection have become more important than ever. About 80% of all infections are transmitted by hands, so implementing effective hand hygiene at work is important. Most Australians spend more time Monday through Friday at work than anywhere else. Plus, a fair amount of workers go to work even when they’re ill, making workplaces a hotbed for bacteria and germs.
As one of the most important proteins, collagen is responsible for various biological functions, from providing support in the connective tissue and muscle, to promoting skin elasticity, bone and joint health. Though our bodies produce collagen naturally, this production starts slowing down when we start ageing. This is one of the main reasons for the appearance of ageing signs, such as wrinkles, as it gets harder for the skin to get back into its shape.
Now that social distancing and staying at home are one of the main ways to prevent the spreading of the coronavirus, we’re starting to realize how important the furniture in our home is and the level of comfort it provides. While sure, aesthetics is also an important factor, it doesn’t really make much of a difference whether you’ll be powering through your 40-hour workweek sitting on a blue or beige sofa.
A couple of months ago I purchased a fancy day bed in a modern design with button diamond tufts which I intended to use in my home office mainly as a decorative piece. Little did I know that it would soon turn into an accent piece in my living room! Thanks to their hybrid design, daybeds are something between a sofa and a bed, so by getting one you get to reap the benefits of both. Here are some of them.
They say your health is your biggest wealth and I couldn’t agree more with that. But still, many people forget that most of the time the devil lies in the details and that our daily routines and habits can make a world of difference in our overall health. Take our sedentary lifestyle for example. Most office jobs involve sitting in one position for hours on end, which consequently poses a threat to our well-being.
Although the idea of going completely vegan doesn’t appeal to me, I like to cook plant-based meals for my vegan friends when they stop by for dinner. I respect their values and lifestyle choices and try to please them with healthy and clean meals. Except for excluding meat, dairy, eggs, and fish for these meals, I was surprised to find out that some foods I thought are vegan-safe are actually not. Therefore I had to find a suitable vegan-friendly alternative for these.
As you start setting up your office, you need to put a lot of emphasis on your conference room and make sure it’s properly equipped to cater to your employees’ and clients’ needs. The design of a conference room is of great importance as employees and members will spend quite a lot of time there, so you want it to promote comfort and productivity.
The only love we can count on for a lifetime is on the love of our moms. They are the one person we were directly connected to even when still in the womb, which explains the special connection. Since Mother’s day is coming soon, you can spoil her with a unique gift to show your love and appreciation. This doesn’t mean that you need to try too hard or spend too much… Remember that spending an afternoon with her and a long hug is what she’d like the most, but here are some simple ideas that are sure to warm her heart.
Constipation is a condition where bowel movements occur less than normal or are extremely tough. It is considered that this condition can/will happen to anyone at some point in their life, and this can be associated with many factors. Firstly, constipation can be caused by an anatomical issue like a pelvic flow dysfunction, for example, but it can also be associated with endocrine or metabolic disorders. This could be pregnancy, diabetes, hypercalcemia, hypothyroidism, etc. On the other hand, constipation can also be associated with some neurologic disorders like Parkinson disease and multiple sclerosis, or it could be associated with connective tissue disorders and eating disorders. Whatever the type of constipation, a lot of people decide to take aperients medication as to relieve the symptoms.
While every job has its own risks, it seems that in certain industries the safety hazards that employees are exposed to are much higher. Apart from evaluating these risks and taking the suitable safety measures, being equipped with the proper workwear for the job is of paramount importance.
Drain (inspection) cameras are known as borescopes, but even experienced plumbers like myself don’t call it that. The latter is a more technical term for an instrument that is used in all kinds of industries and applications. A drain (inspection) camera allows you to view certain places where it’s physically impossible for a human being to fit. Although when it comes to sewer inspection, there are two types of cameras, I’ve come to realise that there are multiple factors which affect the quality and effectiveness of both.
