From all the experiments, we can see that the waiting worker threshold w w th determines the sensitivity towards low resources.
Nurse and midwife figures were merged when possible to allow comparisons with the health worker threshold above cited [ 5].
For people in certain high-risk occupations, including police officers and construction workers, thresholds would be higher: as high as $27,000 for a family.
Table 4 summarises the results of our experimentation with different overload and waiting workers thresholds under the DVFS policy.
Her mother is a social worker at Thresholds, a psychiatric and drug-addiction rehabilitation center in Chicago.
In particular, experience with fertility signals may change workers' acceptance thresholds [ 48, 66, 67].
The recently launched World health report 2006 suggests a minimum worker density threshold of 2.3 workers (doctors, nurses and midwives) per 1000 population necessary to achieve the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for health.
Chen postulates that the critical minimum health-care worker coverage threshold is 2.5 workers per 1000 population, which corresponds to an 80% coverage for two health service indicators—skilled birth attendance and measles vaccination coverage [ 7].
For individual workers this threshold is in part dependent on queen fecundity, and is communicated to workers by the queen's pheromonal signal [ 20, 21].
This cross-sectional study of 4627 male train and track maintenance workers demonstrates hearing thresholds similar to that of the non-exposed groups, but the oldest workers have a small but significantly greater hearing loss with more notched audiograms than the control group.
