Opis:
Transport pełni kluczową rolę w gospodarce każdego kraju. Jest zatem tym obszarem badań, który pozwala ocenić potencjał rozwojowy i instytucjonalny całej gospodarki. Głównym celem artykułu jest zwrócenie uwagi na fakt, że właściwe funkcjonowanie systemu transportowego nie zależy wyłącznie od odpowiedniego finansowania infrastruktury, ale na budowaniu jego potencjału rozwojowego, co powinno być także warunkiem dobrego zarządzania tym sektorem. Na przykładzie problemów krajów Europy Środkowej i Wschodniej oraz wybranych krajów rozwijających się autor udowadnia, że dążenie do zmniejszenia ubóstwa w krajach postkomunistycznych nie byłoby skuteczne, gdyby najpilniejsze problemy związane z branżą transportową nie zostały rozwiązane w okresie transformacji.

Opis:
An ergonomics and safety model to assess and evaluate the most critical industrial improvement areas in a developing nation. This study was initiated and supported by a Fortune 500 Corporation interested in improving its global operations in developing nations. This initiative was also fully supported by an emerging nation that was concerned with its ergonomics and safety problems. The model was tested and validated in the emerging nation and the results were used to further enhance the model so that it can be implemented and adapted to other similar work environments. The model provides a practical methodology that analyzes and evaluates an emerging nation’s current work environments, suggests practical solutions, and recommends effective remedies.

Opis:
Purpose The article introduces the issue of technical safety, characterises selected activities that create hazards on construction sites and suggests ways to eliminate them. Findings Knowledge of reliability is essential to carry out construction works. The need for the structural engineer to consider safety issues and the obligation to have a general knowledge of safety and technical safety arises. Knowledge of technical safety allows for the proper execution of works on site. Research limitations/implications The level of safety on a construction site depends on many factors, and a significant group of these are technical factors that determine the possibility of adverse events occurring. Practical implications Safety is defined as a state that provides a sense of certainty and a guarantee that it will be maintained and an opportunity for improvement. The level of safety on a construction site depends on many factors, and a significant group of these are technical factors that determine the possibility of adverse events occurring. The possibility of adverse events occurring is called unreliability. It is the opposite concept of the reliability, which is more commonly used in the construction industry. Originality/value A useful tool for ensuring technical safety on construction sites is the Health and Safety Plan or HSE Plan, and the Instructions for the Safe Execution of Work - IBWR instructions. Those documents are intended to protect the health and lives of workers by providing information on how to prevent hazards associated with the execution of certain construction work and how to deal with them should they occur.

Opis:
Purpose The issue of shaping the attitude of employee involvement in an organisation is a relatively new area of scientific interest. Shaping employees' attitudes, understood as a conscious influence to consolidate or change them so that they are conducive to the safe operation of building objects, should be of significant importance for any organisation. Attitude is related to behaviour, the most elementary form of human activity, which is externally observable. Design/methodology/approach Statistical analysis. Findings The issue of shaping organisational attitudes and behaviours is related to the need to consider the factors that trigger the change process. It is important to diagnose whether the engine of change is the person with a specific attitude or elements from his environment. Research limitations/implications The article presents a theoretical introduction and the results of diagnostic tests. It proposes actions shaping the attitudes and behaviour of employees regarding the safe operation of buildings, based on the example of the University of Agribusiness in Lomza. Practical implications The classical approach to the safety of buildings focuses primarily on the technical and engineering side of the building. Planners, designers, contractors, and users of buildings strive to make them the least hazardous to health and life, especially during the operation of the building. At the same time, it is important to bear in mind that safe operation is influenced by the behaviour of facility users, as they are the weakest link in management. Consequently, this is where the reserves for raising the health and safety of building users to a higher level still lie. Originality/value One of the main factors significantly influencing how an individual will behave when placed in a risky situation is how they perceive the risks involved. People's beliefs about various things can influence their behaviour more strongly than objective reality. To activate the reserves hidden in human behaviour to improve the safety level of buildings, it is necessary to fully recognise the causes and mechanisms that lead users to risky actions. Those behaviours allow the application of appropriate training and supervision methods, and more broadly of management methods, which would induce users to behave safely and to react consciously, directly or indirectly, to emerging risks during the operation of the works.

Opis:
This study investigated workers’ perceptions of workplace safety in an African work environment, specifically in Ghanaian work places. Workers’ safety perceptions were examined with Hayes et al.’s. (1998) Work Safety Scale. Comparative analyses were done between high- and low-accident groups, and t tests were employed to test for differences of statistical significance. Relative to their colleagues in the low-accident category, workers in the high-accident category exhibited negative perceptions on safety. They had negative perceptions regarding work safety, safety programmes, supervisors, and co-workers’ contributions. Besides, they expressed less job satisfaction and were less committed to safety management policies. Perceptions regarding management’s attitude towards safety between the 2 groups were not of statistical significance. The analyses provided an explanation for the cause of a substantial portion of the high rate of industrial accidents in Ghana’s work environment. Implications for safety management are discussed.

Opis:
Purpose The article presents legal regulations and principles for the safe operation of buildings in winter and proposes a procedure for clearing snow from flat roofs. Findings The Construction Law regulates the activities involving building design, construction, maintenance, and demolition and defines the operation principles of public administration bodies in these areas. Research limitations/implications The safety of buildings in the winter requires specialist knowledge and special care on the part of managers, employers, persons managing employees, and employees performing work related to their safe operation. Practical implications The safe removal of snow from flat roofs requires adequate legal knowledge, skills, training, and experience on the part of employers, managers, and workers. The employer's most important obligations to employees in the case of snow clearance work on flat roofs (tantamount to work at height) include providing them with protective equipment appropriate to their position and tasks, with collective protective equipment. The employer is obliged to ensure that persons who carry out work at height are assisted by other employees who do not carry out such work directly. The employer should also ensure that workers receive instruction, taking into account, in particular, the personal division of work, the sequence of tasks to be performed, and the health and safety rules necessary for the various activities. It is also necessary to establish supervision of work at height. Originality/value Employees carrying out snow clearing should have a current height examination and hold a valid (current) medical certificate of no contraindication to work at height. The employee must also receive health and safety training prior to working at height, as well as an introduction to the specifics of the job, know the potential hazards and risks, and learn to use the personal protective equipment required for the job properly.

Opis:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to discuss the problem of culture in the workplace, which has been becoming increasingly popular recently. Findings Culture has many meanings and synonyms in the Polish language - we can talk about good manners, rules of savoir-vivre, social etiquette, or politeness. Most people intuitively know how to behave in situations outside of work. In recent years, discussions about culture in the workplace have appeared more often. It is particularly relevant in the construction industry at a time when new forms of employment are emerging and many organisations are undergoing restructuring processes. Research limitations/implications It results in, among others, high staff turnover, the employment of more contract workers, frequent changes in the working environment, and working on different construction sites. In such cases, the direct and long-term impact of supervision on maintaining safe and cultural working conditions is increasingly limited. The responsibility should be borne by all site personnel, who should adopt an attitude of active and continuous concern for the culture and safety of their own behaviour and that of others and be personally involved in the process of developing cultural and safe attitudes on construction sites. The article defines culture and suggests its application on construction sites. Practical implications Consequences include high rates of staff turnover, the need to bring in outside contractors, constant shifts in the workplace culture, and the need to work at many sites. The ability of supervision to provide a safe and satisfactory work environment, both now and in the future, is diminished under those circumstances. All construction workers should take responsibility and adopt an attitude of active and continuous concern for the culture and safety of their behaviour and that of others and be personally involved in the process of shaping cultural and safe attitudes on construction sites. Originality/value The paper defines culture and proposes its use on construction sites.

Opis:
Aim:  The purpose of this paper is to examine the productivity of 12 container ports located in East and Southern African developing nations for the period of 2014-2016. Furthermore, to investigate the sources of productivity change over the time period. Design / Research methods: This research collects data on the 12 container ports. The productivity of these ports is analyzed using the Data Envelopment Analysis based Malmquist productivity index.  This is decomposed into technological changes and technical efficiency. The sources of productivity change are identified. Conclusions /findings: The major finding of this study is the trend in the port efficiency level over the three year period of analysis. Therefore assisting maritime policymakers and port authorities on what aspect of the port production need enhancement. Originality/value of the article: Evaluation of ports in developing nations in Africa is not common. Also, the year under examination is less than five years. Therefore the result is relevant to port authorities as well as to the African nations. Implications of the research: 90% of import and exports into developing African nations are done by sea. The implication of this is that an efficient or inefficient port will have a multiplier effect on the nation’s economy. Great improvement in port productivity will enhance economic growth and development. Limitations of the research: Port efficiency should be evaluated on a yearly basis to serve as a major determinant of port productivity. However, this evaluation is based on availability of data.
