In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) identifies two levels of Occupational Health and Safety professionals - a Technician and a Specialist. Technicians tend to work for Specialists, which means Technicians tend to have a lower level of educational requirements than Specialists. Technicians may require only a high school diploma, whereas Specialists require at least a bachelor's degree. Some post-secondary institutions in the United States offer specific Occupational Health and Safety majors, certificates or degrees. These degrees will usually be a requirement of certification. In the United States, all employers must abide by the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) which requires them to provide a safe working environment for all employees. Many private organizations employee Occupational Health and Safety professionals to ensure their organization meets all legal requirements. While the government organization - Occupational Safety and Health Administration - enforces the law, inspects workplaces and investigates incidents. Every organization who hires an Occupational Health and Safety professional will have different employment requirements. Some of these requirements may be based on the level of the job within the organization (i.e. the higher the job, the higher the qualifications). If you want to work for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration directly, you can access all job postings on the federal USAJOBS website. Use the advanced search on the website to look specifically for jobs at OSHA. Remember that not all positions will be called inspector, so try not to limit your search by using the word inspector. To find Occupational Health and Safety jobs at a private organization you can use either a generic job search website (i.e. Monster, etc.) or go directly to the organization's career website. Certification, in general, is not required to become an Occupational Health and Safety professional, but it certainly doesn't hurt. Some specific organizations may require certification, so obtaining one will increase the number of positions you're eligible for. The Board of Certified Safety Professionals (BCSP) offers a number of different certifications. The BCSP also offer a Career Paths in Safety PDF that walks you through the different types of certifications and their requirements. The Institute for Safety and Health Management (ISHM) offers a number of certifications for professionals at the management level. The American Board of Industrial Hygiene (ABIH) offers two types of certification. Industrial hygiene is another term for Occupational Health and Safety. Career experts have no magic number of jobs to apply to during a job search, but you should try to be logical. Make sure you take the time to do your job search properly - don't rush. Take advantage of expert advice from career centers and reputable career websites. Make sure your application stands out from the crowd. And don't sell yourself short by making compromises. Don't limit your applications to positions you're 100% qualified for. You may have other skills and abilities that make up for the lack of specific qualifications in other areas. The majority of available jobs aren't actually posted on job websites, or advertised at all. This is referred to as the closed job market and it can usually only be accessed by networking. Your cover letter is one of the most important parts of your application. Don't use a form letter. Make sure you use keywords directly from the job posting. Once you've submitted your application you may be short-listed for an interview. The interview is your chance to show your potential employer you're the perfect candidate for the position. Review any potential interview questions you may receive and practice your responses. Make sure you bring at least two printed copies of your resume with you to the interview. One to give to the interviewer, if required, and the other for you to reference while answering questions. Review the employer's website and ensure you know the proper attire to wear for the interview. When it doubt, assume business formal attire. Practice your interview with a friend or career professional. This can include the career center at your post-secondary institution. Career centers may also offer seminars on interviewing skills which may be helpful.
Summary: Obtain the appropriate level of education. Decide if you'd rather work for a public or private organization. Review specific role requirements. Decide if you're going to pursue certification. Apply to the jobs you're interested in. Prepare for and attend employment interviews.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Use a small pet carrier for a cat that you already own, or use a cardboard box large enough for a cat to fit in. Flip the box upside down and use a pair of scissors or a utility knife to cut a 1 by 1ft (30 by 30cm) hole so a cat can fit inside. Pet carriers can be purchased online or at your local pet store. If you use a pet carrier with openings on top, weight a blanket on top to make the enclosure dark. Use a fleece blanket or a similar soft fabric on the bottom of the enclosure to make it more comfortable for the cat. Use extra fabric so the cat is able to cover itself without pulling the bedding off of the floor. Catnip is an herb that attracts cats and gives them a "high." Pinch some catnip between your fingers and sprinkle it on the bedding. For added effect, spread a little bit around the outside of the enclosure so cats can smell it from a distance. Catnip can be purchased at your local pet store or grown at home. Cats can smell wet foods easier than they can smell dry foods. Once the can is opened, set it on the ground the enclosure. A cat may come when it's ready to eat. Keep a few extra cans in your pantry so you always have food when you need it. Try different flavors of cat food to see what attracts the cat the most. Let the cat eat without handling it. If it is an unfamiliar cat, leave it completely alone while it's feeding. Talk at a normal volume around the cat so it can get used to your voice and associate it with feeding and good behavior. Many cats are active while humans are asleep since they will be searching for food. Keep an eye on the enclosure to see if any cats come for the food or for a place to sleep.
Summary: Place a pet carrier or upside-down box outside. Line the bottom with soft bedding. Sprinkle catnip inside the enclosure. Use a can of wet food or tuna. Watch for cats around 2 AM.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: repare your subfloor. You will need your subfloor to be ready for laying down hardwood floors. This tutorial focuses on installing solid hardwoods, so you will want a wood subfloor if you want to follow the directions exactly. Other options are available, however. Don't forget to consider things like door jambs as well. You will need to be able to either get your floors underneath the molding or you will need to cut your floor to go around it. Before you install solid hardwood floors, you will need to let the wood acclimate to the moisture level of your home first. Leave the wood to sit in the room in which it will be installed for at least three days. Try to install the floor during either the Spring or Fall, when the temperature is neither very hot nor very cold. Temperature will also affect the wood. A larger number of tools and supplies will be necessary to complete this project. You can rent larger pieces, like flooring nailers, from your local hardware store. Other pieces, like nails, will need to be purchased. You can find the materials list for this project at the bottom of this page.
Summary:
. Let your wood acclimate. Gather tools.
