STANDARDIZATION AND CERTIFICATION OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY THROUGH THE COMPLYWORKS SYSTEM ON THE EXAMPLE OF A COMPANY FRETON D.O.O.
No full textSigurnost na radnom mjestu postala je jedan od glavnih prioriteta za organizacije diljem svijeta. Kako su sigurna radna mjesta ujedno i produktivnija, poslodavci pokušavaju pronaći nove načine da svoje zaposlenike zadrže sigurnima i zdravim. Sigurnost radnika odnosi se na osiguravanje sigurnog radnog okruženja, sigurne opreme, politika i radnih postupaka kako bi se osiguralo zdravlje i sigurnost radnika. Završni rad prikazati će potrebu za propisivanjem radnih postupaka, postupak normiranja i certifikacije putem sustav ComplyWorks te u konkretnom primjeru pokazati dokumentaciju koja je odobrena.Workplace safety has become one of the top priorities for organizations around the world. As secure jobs are also more productive, employers are trying to find new ways to keep their employees safe and healthy. Worker safety refers to ensuring a safe working environment, safe equipment, policies and work procedures to ensure the health and safety of workers. The final paper will show the need to prescribe working procedures, the procedure of standardization and certification through the system ComplyWorks, and in a concrete example show the documentation that has been approved
HUMAN POTENTIAL MANAGEMENT ON THE EXAMPLE OF HEP DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM OPERATORS
No full textSažetak Ljudski potencijali nikada nisu bili važniji nego u današnje vrijeme. Poslovni uspjeh svake organizacije ovisi o dobrom upravljanju ljudskim potencijalima. U današnje vrijeme sve je teže naći dobrog zaposlenika, a još je teže upravljati ljudskim potencijalima. Svaki zaposlenik ima drugačiju motivaciju za rad i velika je odgovornost pronaći i motivirati svakog zaposlenika. Upravljanje ljudskim potencijalima trebalo bi postojati u svakoj organizaciji kao poseban odjel koji bi se bavio samo zaposlenicima. To je kontinuirani proces koji zahtijeva kontinuirano praćenje i donošenje raznih odluka. Na primjeru iz prakse prikazano je dobro upravljenje ljudskim potencijalima.Human resources have never been more important than today. The business success of any organization depends on the good management of human resources. Nowadays, it is increasingly difficult to find a good employee, and it is even more difficult to manage human resources. Each employee has a different motivation for work and it is a big responsibility to find and motivate each employee. Human resources management should exist in every organization as a separate department dealing only with employees. It is a continuous process that requires continuous monitoring and making of various decisions. Good management of human resources is shown in the example from practice
FIREFIGHTING TRAINING IN A FLASHOVER SIMULATOR
No full textZanimanje vatrogasca spada u jedno od najrizičnijih zanimanja. Vatrogasci nisu samo osobe koje gase požare, oni spašavaju ljude i životinje te se susreću s drugim raznim intervencijama. Svaki dan, odnosno svaka smjena je drugačija i nikada se ne može znati kad i za koju vrstu intervencije će doći dojava. Prvenstveno je potrebno razumjeti kako i pri kojim uvjetima može doći do gorenja. Kod intervencija u zatvorenim prostorima vatrogasci se mogu susresti s mnogo problema i opasnosti, a među njima su pojave plamenih udara kao što su flashover i backdraft koji nerijetko rezultiraju smrtnim posljedicama za vatrogasce uz nastalu veliku materijalnu štetu. Vrlo je bitno da su vatrogasci upoznati sa njihovim predznacima kako bi ih mogli na vrijeme prepoznati i zaštititi se od njih ili ih po mogućnosti i spriječiti. Da bi uvelike smanjili stradavanje vatrogasaca počela su se provoditi osposobljavanja vatrogasaca u simulatorima plamenih udara zbog toga što su uvjeti u takvim simulatorima bili približni stvarnim situacijama na intervencijama kod požara zatvorenih prostora. Obuka se provodi u sigurnim uvjetima teorijski i praktično gdje se uče kako se ponašati u simulatoru plamenih udara, kako se kretati u njemu i raditi s mlaznicom blokirajući plameni udar. Vrlo je važno da su vatrogasci u dobroj kondiciji i da na svakoj intervenciji znaju odabrati pravilnu taktiku gašenja. Kod osposobljavanja vatrogasaca u simulatoru plamenih udara vrlo bitnu ulogu imaju i instruktori. Oni su tu da vatrogascima prenesu teorijsko i praktično znanje i da to sve izvedu u sigurnim uvjetima kako za njih, tako i za sebe.The profession of firefighter is one of the most risky professions. Firefighters are not only people who put out fires, they save people and animals and deal with other various interventions. Every day or every shift is different and they can never know when and for wath type of intervention a report will come. First of all, it is necessary to understand how and under what conditions burning can occur. Firefighters can encounter many problems and dangers during interventions in closed spaces, among them are the occurrences of flame shocks such as Flashover and Backdraft, which often result in fatal consequences for firefighters and can also cause great material damage. It is very important that they are familiar with their signs in order to be able to recognize them on time and protect themselves from them or, if possible, prevent them. In order to greatly reduce the casualties of firefighters, firefighter training began in flame shock simulators because the conditions in such simulators were close to real situations during interventions in closed spaces fires. The training is conducted in safe conditions, theoretically, where you learn how to behave in the flame impingement simulator, how to move in it and work with the nozzle blocking the flame impingement. It is very important that the firefighters are in good condition and that they know how to choose the correct extinguishing tactics for each intervention. Instructors also play a very important role when training firefighters in the flame shock simulator. They are there to impart theoretical knowledge to the firefighters and to do it all in safe conditions for both them and themselves
SAFETY IN INDUSTRY
No full textZavršni rad podijeljen je u dva dijela, teorijski i praktični dio. U teorijskom dijelu opisan je način rada sigurnosnog sustava, norme koje se moraju ispuniti, te elementi koji se koriste u takvom sustavu točnije senzori, sigurnosni relej i aktuatori. U praktičnom dijelu na konkretnom primjeru napravljen je jedan sigurnosni sustav koji se može iskoristit u industriji, određena je potreba oprema (senzori, tipkala, brave, aktuatori) te je isprogramiran sigurnosni PLC. Na osnovu prikazanog i odrađenog biti će izvučen zaključak.SUMMARY The final paper is divided into two parts, a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part describes how the safety system works, the standards that must be met, and the elements used in such a system, specifically sensors, safety relays and actuators. In the practical part, a security system that can be used in the industry was created using a specific example, equipment (sensors, buttons, locks, actuators) was specified and a safety PLC was programmed. On the basis of what was shown and done in this final paper, a conclusion will be drawn
SAFETY WORK IN OIL INUSTRY
No full textNaftna industrija je najveći opskrbljivač i prerađivač o kojoj ovisi transport robe, te opskrba raznim naftnim derivatima. Stoga je vrlo bitno osiguravati održavanje proizvodnje naftnih derivata zbog kontinuirane opskrbe potrošača nafte. Održavanje kod naftne industrije ima ulogu zaštite opreme i radnika koji obavljaju poslove zaštite na radu. U naftnoj industriji važno je osposobiti radnike za rad na siguran način kako bi se izbjegli smrtni ishodi. Procjena rizika opasnosti ukazuje na slabe točke na mjestima rada za koje je potrebno educirati radnika da se izbjegnu ozljede na radu. Vrlo je važno provoditi kontinuirane nadzore radnika i radnih mjesta, kako bi se utvrdilo provođenje mjera zaštite na radu.The oil industry is the largest supplier and processor on which the transport of goods depends, as well as the supply of various oil derivatives. Therefore, it is very important to ensure the maintenance of the production of oil derivatives due to the continuous supply of oil consumers. In the oil industry, maintenance has the role of protecting equipment and workers who perform work safety tasks. In the oil industry, it is important to train workers to work safely in order to avoid fatalities. Hazard risk assessment indicates weak points in workplaces for which it is necessary to educate the worker to avoid injuries at work. It is very important to carry out continuous monitoring of workers and workplaces, in order to determine the implementation of safety measures at work
INVENTORY OF THE PARKS OF THE CITY OF SLUNJ
No full textUpravljanje urbanim zelenim površinama u Gradu Slunju nikad nije bilo izazovnije zbog konstantnog pritiska urbanizacije prostora i brzo rastućeg turizma. Upravljanje zelenim površinama definitivno olakšava popis drvenastih vrsta sa kojima se raspolaže u samom urbanom prostoru Grada Slunja. Ovom inventarizacijom se stvara osnovna baza podataka o količini, vrstama, visini i promjeru izmjerenih stabala, njihovoj geografskoj lokaciji i namjeni u prostoru. Sama baza podataka se može stvoriti u GIS sustavu, ali to zahtjeva znanje i puno vremena. Ovaj rad pokazuje efikasnost pipGIS® aplikacijskog sustava, uz poznavanje dendrologije i znanja korištenja šumarskih alata kao što su: promjerka i visinomjer .Mjerenje se održalo na tri interesne lokacije: Trg dr. Franje Tuđmana, Trg Zrinskih i Frankopana i drvored i interesantna stabla Rastoka. Mjerenje olakšava aplikacija Odk collect, koja je sastavni dio pipGIS® aplikacijskog sustava. Ona šalje podatke sa terena direktno u web bazu podataka. Nakon terenskog dijela podaci se uređuju kako bih se dobila precizna slika sa terena u digitalnoj verziji. Prilikom mjerenja primijećeno je dosta oštećenih stabala od redovitog održavanja javnih površina, bolesti drveća, pa čak i invazivnih vrsta. Rezultati mjerenja su prikazani u tablicama i grafikonima u mom završnom raduManaging urban green spaces in the City of Slunj has never been more challenging due to the constant pressure of urbanization of space and fast-growing tourism. Managing green areas definitely facilitates the list of woody species available in the urban space of the City of Slunj. This inventory creates a basic database of the quantity, species, height and diameter of measured trees, their geographical location and purpose in space. The database itself can be created in the GIS system, but it requires knowledge, and a lot of time. This paper demonstrates the efficiency of the pipGIS® application system, with knowledge of dendrology and knowledge of the use of forestry tools such as: diameter and altimeter .The measurement was held at three interesting locations: Dr. Franjo Tudjman Square , Zrinski and Frankopan Square and the treeline and interesting trees of Rastoke . Measurement is facilitated by the Odk collect application, which is an integral part of the pipGIS® application system. It sends data from the field directly to the web database. After the field part, the data is edited to get a precise image from the field in digital version. During the measurement, a lot of damaged trees were noticed from the regular maintenance of public areas, tree diseases, and even invasive species. The measurement results are shown in tables and graphs in the my final work
SOURCES OF HEAVY METALS IN THE ENVIRONMENT
No full textZagađenje okoliša teškim metalima postaje sve veći problem, što uzrokuje veliku zabrinutost
zbog njihovih potencijalnih štetnih posljedica ne samo na okoliš, već i na zdravlje ljudi.
Jednom kad teški metali uđu u okoliš, mogu se akumulirati u tlu, vodi i biljkama te se
postepeno prenose kroz prehrambeni lanac. Metali kao anorganski onečišćivači dospijevaju
u okoliš zbog naglog rasta poljoprivrede, posebice uslijed korištenja gnojiva i pesticida, kao
i metalopreređivačke industrije, ali i nepropisnog odlaganja otpada.
Ovaj rad prikazuje na koji način teški metali ulaze u okoliš i što se s njima događa. Neke
vrste teških metala utječu na biološke funkcije i rast organizama, dok se drugi metali
nakupljaju u jednom ili više organa, što može prouzročiti ozbiljne bolesti. Teški metali mogu
izazvati različite zdravstvene probleme kod ljudi, uključujući oštećenje jetre, bubrega,
živčanog sustava, pluća i kardiovaskularnog sustava. Oni također mogu biti kancerogeni i
imati negativan utjecaj na reproduktivni sustav. Glavni cilj rada je opisati esencijalne i
neesencijalne teške metale i njihove ključne osobine te izvore iz kojih oni dospijevaju u
okoliš.Environmental pollution with heavy metals is becoming a growing problem, which causes
great concern about their potential harmful effects not only on the environment, but also on
human health. Once heavy metals enter the environment, they can accumulate in soil, water
and plants and are gradually transferred through the food chain. Metals as inorganic
pollutants reach the environment due to the rapid growth of agriculture, especially due to the
use of fertilizers and pesticides, as well as the metal processing industry, as well as improper
disposal of waste.
This paper shows how heavy metals enter the environment and what happens to them. Some
types of heavy metals affect the biological functions and growth of organisms, while other
metals accumulate in one or more organs, which can cause serious diseases. Heavy metals
can cause a variety of health problems in humans, including damage to the liver, kidneys,
nervous system, lungs and cardiovascular system. They can also be carcinogenic and have a
negative impact on the reproductive system.
The main goal of the work is to describe essential and non-essential heavy metals and their
key properties and the sources from which they reach the environment
BUSINESS ETIQUETTE AND COMMUNICATION THROUGH CLOTHING
No full textPrvi je dojam, pogotovo onaj u poslovnom svijetu, jako važan. Veliku ulogu u stvaranju
prvog dojma ima upravo poslovni bonton. Naime, poslovni bonton je skup različitih
ponašanja koji se sastoji od poslovnog odijevanja i kulture tijela, umijeća ophođenja
na radnom mjestu i prema kolegama, komunikaciju s poslovnim partnerima, kultura
ponašanja na poslovnim sastancima, poslovnim večerama te sama kultura jedenja i
običaja za stolom. Poslovni bonton na radnom mjestu vrijedi podjednako za svakog
zaposlenika bez obzira na njegovu funkciju u radnoj organizaciji.
Uz poslovni bonton, veliku ulogu u poslovnom svijetu igra i način odijevanja
zaposlenika. Glavni razlog zbog kojeg je način i stil odijevanja u poslovnom svijetu
važan jest taj što osoba svojim fizičkim izgledom pa samim time i odabirom odjeće
šalje poruku svojim kolegama, ali i klijentima o razini vlastite poslovne profesionalnosti.
Bilo da se radi o ozbiljnim poslovnim pregovorima ili samom razgovoru za posao,
važno je na sugovornika ostaviti dobar prvi utisak. Upravo zbog toga, veliki broj tvrtki
propisuje službene kodekse odijevanja za svoje zaposlenike. Iako se modni trendovi
mijenjaju iz dana u dan, službeni kodeks odijevanja je ujedno i svojevrsni izraz
korporativne kulture određene tvrtke. Naravno, različiti poslovni postavljaju i različite
zahtjeve u pogledu odijevanja, pa su službeno propisani kodeksi odijevanja u nekim
tvrtkama češći, dok su u drugima rjeđi ili uopće ne postoje.First impression, especially in the business world is very important. Business etiquette
plays a big role in creating a first impression. Namely, business etiquette is a set of
different behaviors that consists of business dress and body culture, the art of behaving
at the workplace and towards colleagues, communication with business partners, the
culture of behavior at business meeting, business dinners and the very culture of eating
and customs at the table. Business etiquette in the workplace applies equally to every
employee, regardless of their function in the work organization.
Along with business etiquette, the way employees dress also plays a big role in the
business world. The main reason why the manner and style of dressing in the business
world is important is that a person sends a message to his colleagues and clients about
the level of his own business professionalism through his physical appearance and
therefore also through his choice of clothes. Whether it is a serious business
negotiation or a job interview itself, it is important to make a good first impression on
the interviewer. Precisely because of this, a large number of companies prescribe
official dress codes for their employees. Although fashion trenda change from day to
day, the official dress code is also a kind of expression of the corporate culture of a
particular company. Of course, different businesses have different requirements in
terms of dress, so officially prescribed dress codes are common in some companies,
while in others they are rarer or do not exist at all
DISCOVERY, USE AND CONSEQUENCES OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS
No full textOvaj rad detaljno istražuje temu otkrivanja, uporabe i posljedica korištenja
nuklearnog oružja. Uključuje pregled ključnih aspekata razvoja nuklearnog
oružja, njegovih primjena i dubokih posljedica koje su proizašle iz uporabe.
Nuklearno oružje je rezultat znanstvenih i tehničkih napora koji su kulminirali
tijekom Drugog svjetskog rata. Kroz povijest, nuklearno oružje je igralo presudnu
ulogu u međunarodnim odnosima i geostrateškoj dinamici. Njegova uporaba u
Hirošimi i Nagasakiju zauvijek je promijenila tijek povijesti i označila početak
atomske ere.
Osim vojne uporabe, nuklearno oružje ima duboke društvene i političke
implikacije. Posljedice korištenja nuklearnog oružja ogledaju se u razornim
učincima na ljudske živote i okoliš. Radijacija koja proizlazi iz nuklearnih
eksplozija izaziva dugotrajne zdravstvene posljedice, uključujući povećanu
incidenciju raka i genetske mutacije. Okolišni učinci uključuju radioaktivno
zagađenje koje narušava ekosustave i bioraznolikost.
Unatoč međunarodnim naporima u sprječavanju širenja nuklearnog oružja,
ostaje nužno poduzimati korake prema razoružanju i osvješćivanju o
katastrofalnim posljedicama koje nuklearno oružje može donijeti.This paper extensively explores the topic of detection, use, and consequences of
nuclear weapons. It encompasses an overview of key aspects of nuclear weapon
development, their applications, and the profound repercussions stemming from
their utilization.
Nuclear weaponry is the outcome of scientific and technical endeavors
culminating during World War II. Throughout history, nuclear arms have played a
pivotal role in international relations and geopolitical dynamics. Their deployment
in Hiroshima and Nagasaki forever altered the course of history, marking the
onset of the atomic age.
Beyond military application, nuclear weapons carry profound societal and political
implications. The aftermath of nuclear weapon use is reflected in devastating
effects on human lives and the environment. Radiation emanating from nuclear
detonations triggers long-lasting health consequences, including an increased
incidence of cancer and genetic mutations. Environmental impacts encompass
radioactive contamination that disrupts ecosystems and biodiversity.
Despite international efforts to prevent nuclear proliferation, it remains imperative
to take steps toward disarmament and raising awareness about the catastrophic
consequences nuclear weapons can bring
STATISTICAL INDICATORS OF INJURIES AT WORK IN HEALTHCARE AND SOCIAL CARE INSTITUTIONS IN CROATIA
No full textRadom su obuhvaćeni pojmovi vezani za zaštitu na radu uopće i posebno u djelatnosti te analiza
podataka o ozljedama na radu po ESAW metodologiji prema izvješćima koja se skupljaju na
razini EU iz država članica.
Ova tema je odabrana zbog duboke povezanosti s mojim profesionalnim iskustvom i stručnim
područjem, s ciljem istaknuti činjenicu da čak i zdravstveni radnici nisu pošteđeni rizika na
radnom mjestu.
Ovom analizom su obuhvaćene razne kategorije: ozljede radnika prema spolu i životnoj dobi,
ozljede na radu prema zanimanju, prema osnovi osiguranja ozlijeđenih na radu, podaci o
radnom okolišu, te podaci o težini ozljede, vrsti ozljede i ozlijeđenom dijelu tijela.The work encompasses concepts related to occupational safety and health in general, and
specifically within the field, as well as the analysis of data on workplace injuries using the
ESAW methodology based on reports collected at the EU level from member states.
This topic was chosen due to its deep connection to my professional experience and expertise,
with the aim of highlighting the fact that even healthcare workers are not exempt from
workplace risks.
This analysis covers various categories: worker injuries by gender and age, workplace injuries
by occupation, based on the insurance status of injured workers, data on the work environment,
and information on the severity, type, and injured body part of the injuries.
