Security and firefighting system in the Republic of Croatia
No full textStvaranje sigurnosnog okruženja u modernom društvu uvijek predstavlja izazov. S obzirom na dinamičnost i raznolikost sigurnosnih aspekata važnih za društvo u cjelini, možemo zaključiti kako vatrogastvo predstavlja jedan od temeljnih stupova sigurnosti. Upravo je to tema ovog rada gdje se analizira uloga vatrogasnog sustava u sustavu sigurnosti. U povijesnom pregledu vatrogastva kao sustava, u proteklih 160 godina, razvidno je kako se takav sustav prilagođavao raznim državnim tvorevinama, te se kroz ovaj rad prikazuju i različiti zakonodavni okviri koji su utjecali na sustav vatrogastva. Jedna od osnovnih premisa ovoga rada je kvaliteta i spremnost vatrogasnog sustava u očuvanju sigurnosti sveukupnog sigurnosnog sustava. U tu je svrhu provedeno ispitivanje ključnih dužnosnika u područjima jedinica lokalnih uprava i samouprava o važnosti vatrogasnog sustava u nadležnim gradovima i općinama.Creating a safe environment in modern society is always a challenge. Given the dynamism and diversity of safety aspects important to society as a whole, we can conclude that firefighting is one of the fundamental pillars of safe society. This is precisely the topic of this paper where the role of the firefighting system in the security system is analyzed. In the historical review of firefighting as a system, in the past 160 years, it is clear how such a system has adapted to various state structures. This paper analyses the various legislative frameworks that have influenced the firefighting system. One of the basic premises of this paper is the quality and readiness of the firefighting system in maintaining the security of the overall security system. For this purpose, a survey of key officials in the areas of local government and self-government units was conducted on the importance of the firefighting system in the cities and municipalities
Accounting manipulation in function of reducing tax liabilities of companies in the Town of Sinj
No full textU ovom radu se istražuje postoji li statistički značajna negativna povezanost između veličine
odstupanja iznosa prihoda od granične vrijednosti temeljem koje se utvrđuje porez na dobit i
upravljanja zaradom na području Grada Sinja. Istraživanje se provodilo na društvima s
ograničenom odgovornošću na području Grada Sinja koja imaju ukupne prihode veće od
1.000.000,00 kn i manje od 5.000.000 kn u razdoblju od 2017. do 2019. Za izračun procjene
upravljanja zaradom korišten je Jones model (1991.), dok se korelacijskim koeficijentom i
modelom regresije analizirao odnos između upravljanja zaradom i odstupanja iznosa prihoda
od granične vrijednosti temeljem koje se utvrđuje porez na dobit. Rezultati su pokazali da
postoji statistički značajna negativna povezanost između veličine odstupanja iznosa prihoda
od granične vrijednosti temeljem koje se utvrđuje porez na dobit i upravljanja zaradom u
2017. i 2018., dok je u 2019. utvrđena negativna povezanost koja nije statistički značajna.
Drugim riječima, za trgovačka društva na područja Grada Sinja koja imaju manja odstupanja
od granične vrijednosti prihoda (3.000.000,00 kn) očekuje se veća razina manipulacija u
financijskim izvještajima.This thesis investigates whether there is a statistically significant negative relationship
between the size of the deviation of income from the threshold value of corporate income tax
and earnings management in the Town of Sinj. The research was conducted on limited
liability companies in the Town of Sinj that have total revenues of more than HRK 1,000,000
and less than HRK 5,000,000 in the period from 2017 to 2019. The Jones model (1991) was
used to calculate the earnings management estimate, while the correlation coefficient and the
regression model were used to analyze the relationship between earnings management and
the deviation of income from the threshold value of corporate income tax. The results showed
that there is a statistically significant negative correlation between the size of the deviation of
income from the threshold value of corporate income tax and earnings management in 2017
and 2018, while in 2019 negative but statistically insignificant correlation was found. In other
words, companies in the area of the Town of Sinj that have smaller deviations from the
income threshold (HRK 3,000,000.00) are expected to have a higher number of
manipulations in their financial statements
Diving as an alternative therapeutic program for the treatment of war veterans
No full textTema je rada ronjenje kao alternativni terapijski program liječenja ratnih veterana i članova njihovih obitelji s poremećajima mentalnog zdravlja i tjelesnim oštećenjima.
Mnogi veterani i članovi njihove obitelji ne dobivaju odgovarajuću zaštitu tjelesnog i mentalnog zdravlja tipičnim medicinskim kanalima usmjerenim na veterane, često zbog složenosti vojnih ozljeda.Tradicionalni psihijatrijski tretmani imaju ograničenja, stoga je od presudne važnosti da istražujemo i prakticiramo alternativne metode.
Ronjenje nadopunjava ukupnu učinkovitost liječenja. Ronjenje može biti rekreacijska aktivnost koja ima širok spektar terapijskih ishoda koji uključuju psihološke dobrobiti, fiziološke koristi isocijalne beneficije.Diving as an alternative therapeutic treatment program for veterans, war veterans and members of their families with mental health disorders and physical impairments
Many veterans and their family members do not receive adequate physical and mental health protection through typical veteran-focused medical channels, often due to the complexity of military injuries. Traditional psychiatric treatments have limitations, so it is crucial that we explore and practice alternative methods. Diving complements the overall effectiveness of the treatment. Diving can be a recreational activity that has a wide range of therapeutic outcomes that include psychological benefits, physiological benefits, social benefits
Private protection in seaports
No full textPromet roba i svjetska trgovina većim se dijelom vrši morem i ovisi o pomorskim putovima, stoga je i sigurnost u javnim lukama i pomorstvu od velike važnosti. Izvori koji predstavljaju najveću opasnost pomorstvu i pomorskim lukama su terorizam, krijumčarenje ljudi, organizirani kriminalitet i ekoterorizam. Terorizam, kao jedna od ugroza, smišljena je protuzakonita uporaba nasilja s namjerom postizanja određenih vjerskih, ideoloških ili političkih ciljeva, a glavne terorističke mete u pomorstvu mogu biti: morske luke, brodovi, mostovi, naftne i plinske platforme. Sve spomenute ugroze predstavljaju veliku opasnost za sigurnost ljudi, imovine i okolišate je stoga u pomorskim lukama nužno uspostaviti učinkovitu zaštitu, razraditi sigurnosne postupke i protokole te donijeti smjernice za postupanje u slučaju nastanka neke prijetnje. Jedan od najvažnijih međunarodnih pravilnika u ovome području je Međunarodni pravilnik o sigurnosnoj zaštiti brodova i lučkih prostora (ISPS – International Ship and Port Facility Security Code) iz 2002. godine, a Republika Hrvatska također ima svoj nacionalni Zakon o sigurnosnoj zaštiti pomorskih brodova i luka. Cilj pravilnika i zakona je odrediti postupke i mjere zaštite kada se dogodi određena sigurnosna ugroza ili štetni događaj, odnosno postupke kojima se sprječavaju mogući incidenti i akcidentne situacije. S obzirom da je pomorska sigurnost od izuzetne važnosti za svjetsku ekonomiju, ekologiju i nacionalna gospodarstva, uspostavljaju se sigurnosne konfederacije, strukovni cehovi, tvrtke privatne zaštite, te se uređuju mnogi zakoni, pravilnici i kodeksi o sigurnosnoj zaštiti pomorskih luka i brodova. CoESS (Confederation ofEuropean Security Services), Konfederacija europskih sigurnosnih službi,Hrvatski ceh zaštitara i privatne zaštitarske tvrtke, uz državne institucije i tijela, usredotočeni su na rješavanje problema u pomorstvu i pomorskim lukama te na razvoj kvalificiranog osoblja i tehnologije. Cilj ovog rada je istražiti temeljne pojmove sigurnosti u lukama i kako se osigurava, prikazati ulogu ustroja sigurnosnih segmenata same luke, temeljito proučiti stanje sigurnosti u lukama u svijetu i u Hrvatskoj te proučiti kako to funkcionira u praksi. Poseban akcent stavljen je na izučavanje uloge privatne zaštite u sigurnosti pomorskih luka.Movement and international trade of goods is largely done by sea and depends on maritime routes, placing great importance on security in public ports, harbours and other maritime facilities. Principal sources of danger to maritime transport and seaports include terrorism, human trafficking, organized crime and eco-terrorism. Terrorism - one of the most prominent threats - is the calculated use of unlawful violence with the intention of creating generalized pervasive fear for the purpose of attaining religious, ideological or political goals, with the main terrorist targets within the maritime sector being: seaports, ships, bridges, oil and gas platforms. These threats pose significant danger to the safety of people, property and the environment, making it necessary to implement effective protection measures in seaports, develop security procedures and protocols and issue suitable guidelines for assessing and combating identified threats. One of essential international regulations for enhancing the security of ships and port facilities is the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS) in force since 2002. Republic of Croatia adopted the national Act on Maritime Ship and Port Security for the same purpose. Aim of such ordinances and legislation is to establish procedures and protection measures for handling specific security threats or harmful events, i.e. procedures used to prevent possible incidents and accidents. Given that maritime security is of paramount importance to the world economy, ecology, as well as national economies, various security-related confederations, professional guilds and private security companies are being established, supported by numerous laws, regulations and codes regulating the security of seaports and ships. Confederation of European Security Services (CoESS), Croatian Security Association and private security companies, along with relevant state institutions and bodies, are focused on solving maritime and port security issues and developing qualified personnel and technologies. The goal of this paper is to explore basic concepts of port security and understand how it is attained, review roles and features of security segments within the port, thoroughly examine the state of security in ports around the world and in Croatia and how it is implemented in real-situations. Special emphasis was placed on studying the role of private security actors in the governance of port security
Guardianship of persons with mental illness deprived of legal capacity
No full textKroz rad je prikazano kako se osobama koje nisu sposobne voditi brigu o svojim interesima i pravima pruža pomoć u donošenju odluka kroz institut skrbništva. Pri tom je prikazan cjelokupni proces oduzimanja poslovne sposobnosti, te su analizirane zakonske odredbe koju uređuju taj proces kao i sudske odluke koje su dovele do izmjena Obiteljskog zakona koje više ne dozvoljavaju potpuno oduzimanje poslovne sposobnosti, već samo djelomično oduzimanje poslovne sposobnosti u segmentima koji su određeni od strane sudskog vještaka. Posebno se analiziraju početna saznanja s kojima raspolaže nadležni centar za socijalnu skrb gdje se utvrđuje ima li pojedina osoba duševne smetnje, pokretanja postupka oduzimanja poslovne sposobnosti, tijek samog izvanparničnog postupka pred nadležnim sudom, provođenje vještačenja od strane sudskog vještaka i na koncu rješenje suda o oduzimanju poslovne sposobnosti.
Isto tako prikazani su i analizirani statistički podatci Centra za socijalnu skrb Split iz koje je vidljivo da je uslijed reforme obiteljskog zakona došlo do značajnog povećanja obujma posla uslijed obaveze revizije odluka suda donesenih po prijašnjim propisima, te se u radu zaključuje jesu li navedene promjene i povećan obujam posla bile potrebne i korisne za zaštitu osnovnih ljudskih prava u koje se zadire oduzimanjem poslovne sposobnosti. Iako su navedene promjene dovele do značajne promjene u samoj praksi i time dovele do značajnog povećanja obujma posla smatramo kako su navedene promjene bila potrebe i korisne za zaštitu osnovnih ljudskih prava u koje se zadire oduzimanjem poslovne sposobnosti.This study shows how people that are not able to take care of their own interests and rights are assisted in making decisions through the institute of custody. Also, the entire process of deprivation of legal capacity is shown, and legal provisions are analyzed, as well as court decisions that led to Family Act being changed to the point that it no longer allows a person to be completely deprived of their legal capacity, but only in segments that are determined by a court expert. In particular the paper analyzes the initial information available to the competent social welfare center where it is determined whether an individual has a mental disorder, initiating proceedings for deprivation of legal capacity, the course of non-litigious proceedings before a competent court, conducting an expert opinion by a court expert and business ability.
Also, the paper presents and analyzes statistics available from Centre for Social Welfare of Split that shows that, due to the reform of the Family Act, there has been a significant increase in the volume of work due to their obligation to review the decisions of the court which were made according to previous regulations. Finally, the paper concludes whether these changes and increased workload were necessary and useful for the protection of basic human rights that are encroached upon by deprivation of legal capacity
Forensic investigation of a mass grave at Ovčara, near Vukovar, of victims killed by the Serbian army in 1991
No full textObjective: To evaluate the contribution of forensic research to the discovery and analysis of mass graves of victims of the Yugoslav People’s Army and Serbian paramilitaries at Ovčara, near Vukovar, and to the identification of exhumed victims as missing persons who were forcibly removed from Vukovar Hospital on 20 November 1991.
Methods: We analysed official international documentation and transcripts from the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. Data on causes of death and injury classifications were derived from autopsy reports and their interpretation by a forensic specialist. Identification of individuals was based on a report by a representative of the Commission on Detainees and Missing Persons.
Results: Scientific and expert evidence from forensic research of the Ovčara mass grave shows that 198 male and 2 female bodies (one of a pregnant woman) in civilian clothes were exhumated from the site, with an average age of 32.5 years, including 3 minors. The determined manner of death for all 200 exhumed bodies was homicide, and the cause of death for 95% of the victims was a gunshot wound to a vital part of the body, in 67% of cases to the head. Traces of medical treatment and hospital workwear were found on 53% of the victims. 96% of the bodies were positively identified, 46.5% using classical forensic methods, and 49.5% by DNA analysis. Most of the victims were Croatian nationals of the Catholic faith.
Conclusion: Forensic analysis and identification confirmed that the war crime victims exhumed from the Ovčara mass grave were listed as missing persons who disappeared from Vukovar Hospital. Their murder was used as relevant evidence of planned ethnic cleansing in court
The influence of COVID-19 pandemic on Croatian life insurance market
No full textThe novel coronavirus pandemic has had numerous negative consequences on different aspects of human life and the economy. Therefore, the authors wanted to see how the closing of social and economic activities and imposed measures have affected insurance companies’ activities conducting life insurance business in Croatia. For this purpose, quarterly panel data for the first three quarters of 2020, 2019, and 2018 are employed. To test how the COVID-19 outbreak has affected the Croatian life insurance market, we have employed quarterly year-on-year gross written premium growth expressed as a percentage, insurance density, and insurance depth that serves as dependent variables level of development of the insurance market. Moreover, independent variables comprise several COVID-19 confirmed cases, number of COVID-19 death cases, coronavirus dummy variable, and year-on- year quarterly GDP growth rate. After conducting static panel analysis, the results reveal that coronavirus dummy variable, taking value one if confirmed cases of COVID-19 disease every quarter are reported and 0 otherwise, negatively affects the level of life insurance market development
The role of Intelligence agencies in Israel's national security
No full textRad prikazuje događaje koji su doveli do stvaranja Izraela, razvoja nacionalne sigurnosti, najvećih sukoba, mijenjanja politike nacionalne sigurnosti, ustroja Shin Beta, Mossada i IDF-a u svrhu istraživanja događaja koji utječu na promjene u sigurnosnim strategijama. Analizira se pitanje nacionalne sigurnosti na slučaju Izraela te se kratko uspoređuje s Hrvatskim sustavom, radi boljeg shvaćanja, a u iste svrhe opisana je i SWOT analiza Izraelske obavještajne agencije Mossad. Sigurnost, pa i sama definicija sigurnosti izrazito su bitni, budući da se na temelju toga provode sigurnosne politike koje posljedično utječu na državu i život pojedinca. U odnosu sigurnosti pojedinca (koja se danas sve više naglašava) i države, javlja se svojevrsna sigurnosna dilema. Kod nacionalne sigurnosti posebno su naglašeni opstanak i razvoj te njena uska povezanost s nacionalnim interesima koji proistječu iz temeljnih vrijednosti države. Opisuju se i uvjeti koji su prethodili nastanku obavještajnih agencija u Izraelu, njihova podjela te fokus rada.The aim of this paper is to present the events which led to the creation of Israel, the development of national security, major conflicts, changes in national security policy and the structure of Shin Bet, Mossad and the IDF in order to explore the events which affect changes in security strategies. The issue of national security in the case of Israel is being analyzed and also briefly compared with the Croatian system for better understanding. For the same purpose the description of the SWOT analysis of the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad is also included. Security, and even the very definition of security, are extremely important since security policies are implemented on these bases and they consequently affect the country and the life of individuals. There is also a security dilemma which is present in relation to the security of the individual (which is increasingly emphasized today) and the security of the state. In the case of national security, the survival and development and its close connection with national interests, which derive from the fundamental values of the state, are especially emphasized. This paper also describes the conditions that preceded the emergence of intelligence agencies in Israel, their division and the focus of their work
Legal tender in the Republic of Croatia
No full textU ovom diplomskom radu pokušao sam približiti definiciju zakonskog sredstva plaćanja u Republici Hrvatskoj i općenito sredstva plaćanja koja se mogu koristiti. Obradio sam poglavlja koja se odnose na kunu kao zakonsko sredstvo plaćanja, platni promet, novac, žiralni novac, elektronički novac, virtualne valute te digitalni euro. Svaki navedeni pojam objasnio sam i pokušao razjasniti je li on zakonsko sredstvo plaćanja u Republici Hrvatskoj. U radu sam pojmovno odredio svaki od navedenih naslova, ukratko analizirao njihov razvoj i povijest, te prikazao njihov način korištenja u današnjici. Posebnu pozornost dao sam sve bližem uvođenju digitalnih valuta od strane nacionalnih središnjih banaka, a neke države su već na dobrom putu da svoje projekte i istraživanja provedu u djelo i u funkciju stave digitalne valute kao zakonska sredstva plaćanja uz gotovinu.In this thesis, I tried to approximate the definition of legal tender in the Republic of Croatia and in general the means of payment that can be used. I have processed the chapters related to the kuna as a legal tender, payment transactions, money, giro money, electronic money, virtual currencies and the digital euro. I explained each of these terms and tried to clarify whether it is a legal tender in the Republic of Croatia. In this paper, I have conceptually defined each of these titles, briefly analyzed their development and history, and presented their use in today. I have paid special attention to the approaching introduction of digital currencies by national central banks, and some countries are already well on their way to putting their projects and research into action and putting digital currencies as legal tender in cash
