Relevant statistics on cooking oil: "Cooking oil and grease fires are a major cause of fires and fatalities. Kitchen fires triggered by cooking oil or grease cause the fastest-spreading destruction of any kind of fire. A pot of cooking oil placed on a stove burner at high heat is a sure-fire recipe for danger. It’s important to pay attention. Cooking late at night poses the greatest risk because there is a chance you could fall asleep, especially if you have been drinking. In only a few minutes, oil can overheat and the vapours burst into flames. Many people are killed or seriously burned in kitchen fires that start this way...” (“Cooking Oil and Grease Fires", https://welcomenb.ca/content/dam/gnb/Departments/ps-sp/pdf/Safety_Protection/Fire-Feu/OilGreaseFire.pdf)

Statistics on slip & Fall injuries from cooking oil & Grease: “1. Sixty percent of BOH workers’ compensation claims are linked to cooking oil.....Manually handling cooking oil is regarded as the most dangerous job in the BOH. Pouring oil into fryers, disposing of used oil and transporting hot oil are all tasks that increase the risk of slip-and-fall accidents caused by oil spills. The only way to completely eliminate the manual process of your BOH staff having to handle oil is through an automated, closed-loop system. If incorporating such technology isn’t possible, executing quarterly training programs specific for each stage of the oil management life cycle can help decrease the risk for injury... The National Safety Council estimates that more than 25,000 slip-and-fall accidents occur every day, equating to 9 million each year. ... 6. The average quick-service restaurant slip-and-fall claim costs $5,800... 7.

Most retail stores have some form of automatic doors, whether they are sliding doors, revolving doors, swinging doors, or folding doors. Most people who pass through automatic doors don't think about the fact that they can be struck by the door or trapped between the door and door frame. We expect them to simply open for us and close behind us. But often, that is not the case. When an automatic door hits you, you don’t expect it. It can throw...

Findings In this cohort study of 7459 persons with diabetes, cycling was associated with at least a 24% lower all-cause mortality rate when compared with noncyclists, independent of other physical activity and putative confounders. Taking up cycling over a 5-year period was associated with at least a 35% lower risk of all-cause mortality when compared with consistent noncyclists. Meaning Cycling could be encouraged as an activity for persons with diabetes to lower the risk of premature mortality.. "  (Larsen et al., n.d.) **** Relevant Insurance Coverage: a.

Blood Pressure Monitor

Image
**** Relevant Background: “ Arterial blood pressure  is most commonly measured via a  sphygmomanometer , which historically used the height of a column of mercury to reflect the circulating pressure. [1] Blood pressure values are generally reported in  millimetres of mercury  (mmHg), though  aneroid  and electronic devices do not contain  mercury .… For each heartbeat, blood pressure varies between   systolic   and   diastolic   pressures. Systolic pressure is peak pressure in the arteries, which occurs near the end of the   cardiac cycle   when the   ventricles   are contracting. Diastolic pressure is minimum pressure in the arteries, which occurs near the beginning of the cardiac cycle when the ventricles are filled with blood. An example of normal measured values for a resting, healthy adult human is 120 mmHg   systolic   and 80 mmHg   diastolic   (written as 120/80 mmHg, and...
