work environment is planned or occurs, or newly available information
indicates that workers may be at risk of adverse health effects from
exposure to ergonomic factors,

effect have been identified, the employer must ensure that the risk is assessed,
taking into account the characteristics of the workers carrying out the work,

ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION
POLICY
All Departments should minimize outdoor workers to the exposure of solar ultraviolet
radiation.
PURPOSE
Exposure to ultraviolet radiation is an occupational concern for workers who work in the
sun on a regular basis.
PROCEDURES
Exposure
1, Employees should obtain, wear and maintain appropriate sun protection wherever
possible especially in the middle of the day,
2, The employer, when practical, should make use of natural or artificial shade and
schedule alternative tasks when UV readings exceed 9.
3, The employer shall put in place adequate UVR control measures and update as
required.
Prevention
1. Workers are encouraged to wear UVR blocking sunglasses when outdoors,
2. Clothing providing the maximum available protection, including hats, should be
worn when outdoors,
3. Workers should use a broad spectrum sunscreen with a sun protection factor of
15 or more for minimal protection. Workers should pay special attention to sun
exposed areas (I.e. ears, face, scalp, back of legs, shoulders).
Ideally, workers should apply sunscreen UVR "40", six minutes before going
outside,
4, It is recommended that all workers, especially if they are sun sensitive, (fair
skinned, tan minimally or burn easily) should obtain professional advice regarding
the most effective sun protection therapy for them.
5. The use of UV safety measures should not lead to other safety risks, the risk of
head injuries from using hats with inadequate impact protection for example, or
the risk of heat stress from wearing heavy clothing in hot environments.
6. All workers in the Municipality must help prevent the over-exposure to UV
radiation on any day when UV readings exceeds 9. This is considered to be
extreme and sunburn can result in fifteen minutes. Please consult your immediate
supeNisor for safe procedures when working under the sun.

Corporation of the Municipality of Clarington
ACQUIRED IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SYNDROME
AND
HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY (HIV) VIRUS
AND
OtHER COMMUNICABLE DISEASES
Purpose
The Municipality of Clarington has an obligation to provide a safe work environment for its
employees and the safe delivery of services to its clients,
The Municipality also recognizes that employees handicapped by illness have a right to continue
to work, as long as these employees are able to perform the essential duties of their jobs in a
satisfactory manner and do not pose an unacceptable risk to their own health and safety or that
of others, There is, therefore no justification for an employee to refuse to work with someone who
is infected with a communicable disease by reason of that fact alone.
An employee with a communicable disease, AIDS related condition or any other employee with
a health problem has a right to privacy and to have private medical information held in the
strictest confidence.
Ongoing employment for someone who has a life threatening illness is important and may help
to prolong the employee's life, therefore, sensitivity should be exercised in dealing with
employees who have Aids or other communicable diseases.
Procedure
1, A person with a communicable disease is entitled to be treated as would any other
employee or applicant having an illness,
2, Infected employees may continue to work as long as their doctors say they are well
enough and they pose no risk to others.
3, There is no evidence that the presence in the workplace of an employee infected with HIV
poses a risk to the health and safety of other employees. There is therefore no
justification for an employee to refuse to work with someone who is infected with HIV or
has AIDS, Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C by reason of that fact alone,
4. The Ontario Human Rights Code prohibits discrimination against or harassment of an
employee by either the employer or co-workers on the basis of handicap or perceived
handicap, including that caused by an illness such as AIDS, HIV virus and other
communicable diseases.
Education
1. The Municipality will make every reasonable attempt to provide to all of its workers
information and assistance to enable them to deal with problems which may arise
concerning AIDS, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C or other communicable diseases.
../2
1218
, ,
- 2-
2, The most up-to-date medical information will be provided to maximize health protection
for employees whose work related activities may bring them into contact with the blood
or body fluids of other people,
3. Procedures must be established by the Municipality and protective equipment provided
to employees who may come into contact with blood and other body fluids in the course
of their normal work activities or emergency situations.
