    (Vysoká škola báňská - Technická univerzita Ostrava, 2024) Langlois, Alida
    This article explores workplace safety dynamics amid demographic shifts, highlighting the increase in aged workers. It addresses their unique safety challenges, particularly with machinery. The article examines the physical and cognitive effects of ageing on safety and technological adaptation. Findings show aged workers' experience reduces risks but highlights challenges with new technologies and complacency. It suggests tailored training, ergonomic adjustments, and health strategies to support the ageing workforce.

    Biological Hazards and Disaster Risk: Complexity of Causes and Solutions, and Overview of Management Implications
    (Vysoká škola báňská - Technická univerzita Ostrava, 2024) Brown, Crystal May; Oosthuizen, Rene; Tandlich, Roman
    Adaptation and changes to the management of infectious diseases result from human research, knowledge gathering, interpretation and applications. Findings from the current study clearly point to the nature of the policy and disaster risk management response to COVID19, as having characteristics of a super-wicked problem. This provides an explanation for the sometimes diverging strategies in tackling the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on humans and the surrounding socio-ecological systems. Solutions to the pandemic and its long-term outcomes will have to take into account the disparity of impacts and pre-disaster conditions.

    Exploration and Evaluation of the Safety of University Laboratories: Case of the Faculty of Technological Sciences of Constantine 1 University – Algeria
    (Vysoká škola báňská - Technická univerzita Ostrava, 2024) Beleulmi, Salima; Bellaouar, Ahmed; Benissaad, Smail
    The risks associated with academic practical work are often perceived to be much lower than the risks inherent in industrial operations. The main objectives of the study are to explore the extent of the application of safety management within the laboratories of the Faculty of Science and Technology of Constantine 1 University, Algeria. A survey questionnaire was distributed to faculty laboratory staff exploring the administration's knowledge, attitudes, and commitment to implementing safety management policies in academic laboratories. The results obtained provided information on the current situation of the laboratory safety management system, in particular the unreasonable layout, the safety risks to which users are exposed as well as the level of adequacy of the systems already in place.
