    U Velikoj Britaniji postoje standardi i oznake za zaštitnu odjeću koje propisuje Britanska organizacija za standardizaciju i Europska Unija, a u kojima se napominje ključna važnost u poštivanju zakona i propisa. Poslodavci su obvezni osigurati odgovarajuću zaštitnu odjeću i opremu zaposlenicima te osigurati da se odjeća pravilno održava i mijenja prema potrebi. Poslodavci su također obvezni educirati zaposlenike o pravilnoj uporabi zaštitne odjeće i mjerama opreza koje se moraju poduzeti na radnom mjestu kako bi se smanjio rizik od ozljeda i bolesti. U ovom završnom radu istražit ćemo kako se oznake sigurnosti koriste u Velikoj Britaniji, koje su najčešće vrste oznaka sigurnosti i kako se one reguliraju te upoznati se s važećim zakonima kroz čitanje, tumačenje i prevođenje tekstova na engleskom jeziku struke. Nadalje, završni rad će u konačnici dati uvid u promjene, poboljšanje i razvoj osobne zaštitne opreme kroz vrijeme. Zakon o osobnoj zaštitnoj opremi kao temeljni zakon u Velikoj Britaniji za zaštitnu odjeću propisuje dužnosti poslodavca i radnika te pravila o stavljanju na tržište radne sigurnosne odjeće. Odjeća mora biti u skladu sa standardima, propisima i zakonom, a da bi bila stavljena na tržište, mora proći niz testiranja otpornosti i tek tada je spremna za uporabu. Za odabir odgovarajuće zaštitne odjeće, poslodavac mora proći niz hijerarhijskih postupaka kroz koje analizira potrebe radnika u radnom odnosu kako bi ih zaštitio i osigurao od nepoželjnih rizika na radu. Da bi poslodavcu bilo lakše, postoji sistem sigurnosnih standarda koji propisuje minimalne uvjete i obaveze u radnom odnosu. Za osobnu zaštitnu odjeću koristi se mnogo sigurnosnih standarda, a navedeni su neki od najpoznatijih (ISO, IEC, BS i EN) koji se koriste u Velikoj Britaniji. Navedeni su neki od klasičnih primjera zaštitne odjeće s pripadajućim oznakama, standardima i piktogramima. Standardi i oznake zaštitne odjeće u Velikoj Britaniji i cijelom svijetu pružaju povjerenje i sigurnost kupaca bilo kakve zaštitne odjeće.n Great Britain there are standards and markings for protective clothing prescribed by the British Organization for Standardization and the European Union. Employers are required to provide appropriate protective clothing and equipment to their employees and ensure that clothing is properly maintained and replaced when necessary. They are also required to train their employees on the proper use of protective clothing and the necessary precautions to be taken in the workplace to reduce the risk of injury and illness. This final paper will investigate the use of safety marks in GB, the most common types of safety marks and how they are regulated.

Finally, the paper shall provide insight into changes, improvements and development of personal protective clothing through time. The Personal Protective Equipment Act, as the basic law in Great Britain for protective clothing, prescribes the duties of the employer and the worker, as well as the rules for placing work safety clothing on the market.

In order to choose the appropriate protective clothing, employers must go through a series of hierarchical procedures through which they analyse the needs of the workers in the employment relationship in order to protect them from undesirable risks at work. To make it easier for the employers, there is a system of safety standards that prescribes minimum conditions and obligations in the employment relationship. A large number of safety standards are used for personal protective clothing, and some of the most common (ISO, IEC, BS and EN) are noted.

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist

    No full text
    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
