Aproximació a la figura de l'educador/a social com a tècnic/a de joventut en l'àmbit rural

Aquest projecte es posa en marxa l’any 2005 a partir de l’elaboració del Pla Comarcal, dels Plans Locals de joventut, dels Projectes Tècnics de joventut, de les Programacions d’activitats i d’accions concretes. Aquests instruments d’intervenció, en els seus diferents nivells, han de ser coherents amb el Pla Nacional de Joventut de la Generalitat de Catalunya, el qual regeix les línies d’actuació de les polítiques de joventut al nostre país. A grans trets, aquesta és una breu descripció del servei en el qual he dut a terme les meves pràctiques d’educador social i un dels motius pels quals he escollit fer aquest treball, ja que en un primer moment, no tenia la intenció d’elaborar un treball de fi d’estudis que tractes sobre l’àmbit de la meva plaça de pràctiques

Workers' compensation for occupational hearing loss: what we know or don't know

This papers looks at workers' compensation laws for each state to determine if there have been any updates in the laws since a 2000 survey by Dobie and Megerson. The study also examines what information is available to audiologists testing patients in workers' compensation claims.

Chronic pesticide poisoning from persistent low-dose exposures in Ecuadorean floriculture workers: toward validating a low-cost test battery

Chronic pesticide poisoning is difficult to detect. We sought to develop a low-cost test battery for settings such as Ecuador’s floriculture industry. First we had to develop a case definition; as with all occupational diseases a case had to have both sufficient effective dose and associated health effects. For the former, using canonical discriminant analysis, we found that adding measures of protection and overall environmental stressors to occupational category and duration of exposure was useful. For the latter, factor analysis suggested three distinct manifestations of pesticide poisoning. We then determined sensitivity and specificity of various combinations of symptoms and simple neurotoxicity tests from the Pentox questionnaire, and found that doing so increased sensitivity and specificity compared to use of acethylcholinesterase alone – the current screening standard. While sensitivity and specificity varied with different case definitions, our results support the development of a low-cost test battery for screening in such settings.
