PTI report. Additionally, the union also held a 'Wellbeing' seminar on mental health of employees on Thursday and these responders have representatives from running staff of the railways, members of the International Transport Forum and Conveners of AIRF among others, the report said. "For this, a toll-free number will also be started soon, through which we can also directly counsel the employees and their families.

Soon, we will print posters and other awareness material. Today, when a railway employee goes to work, he goes with great joy, but when he comes back, he remains irritable, so it may be due to the working hours or because of problems at the workplace," Mishra said during the seminar.

He also said when the railway employees continued to work during the coronavirus pandemic, their entire family used to be upset, anticipating bad news every day, noting, “in such a situation, not only the railway employees but the whole family used to live under stress.

There have been incidents like suicide in many places. This is the reason why the AIRF has decided that we will now also work on the mental health of the employees."  Meanwhile, Railway Board Chairman VK Tripathi said that while medicine is fine, it is important for railway workers to consider the causes of stress themselves, adding “I believe that the work of a railway employee is very sensitive, so if he remains under any kind of stress, it will definitely affect his work.

Winnipeg ICU doc says fall COVID bump may not hit as hard, but health system will be affected
intensive care doctor on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic says from his perspective, Manitobans may not be hit quite as hard by a fall wave of the virus as they have by other waves.Dr. Anand Kumar told 680 CJOB’s The News that he’s seen things generally improving on the COVID front.“I think we’re definitely getting there,” he said.“We’re still going to see significant surprises now and then — it’s probably not going to be everything rosy down the road, but on the overall angle, things are getting better.” Latest Manitoba numbers reveal COVID-19 severe outcomes up Kumar, who is also an infectious disease specialist, said one of the main problems he foresees with a fall wave will be hospital staff contracting the virus and missing work, thereby adding to the already serious staffing issues facing local hospitals.“Although we may not see the kind of numbers we’ve had in the past with ICU admissions and hospital admissions, we’re still going to see a significant bump,” he said.“Where we’re going to get hit is — given that there are no restrictions in the community — we’ll probably see a lot of health-care workers go down with COVID in terms of having to take time off work, and that will redouble the difficulty in terms of staffing.”According to last week’s provincial data, COVID-related hospitalizations had seen a slight increase, with 70 people taken to hospital, up from 67 the previous week.Of those Manitobans, 16 people were admitted to ICU, up from nine.As far as COVID prevention is concerned, booking appointments became available Monday for those who are eligible for the bivalent COVID-19 vaccine.
