Opis:
This paper discusses agency, regulatory capture, counterparty and political risks as aspects of the nonmarket financial risks that pension plans and their participants bear, using as examples the United States and Poland. The intent of the paper is to expand beyond financial market risks the discussion of financial risks that pension plans and participants bear in funded pension systems. Thus, this paper fits into the broader discussion of the relative merits of funded and unfunded pensions. The paper also relates to analysis of the increasingly complex environment in which pension plans operate.

Opis:
An effective solution to security problems those small and global ones demands certain knowledge and skills from managers and executives of different ranks. In this regard, we have allocated a special class of the risks associated with decision-making at various levels ranging from everyday to global. These risks are referred to as “the risks of incompetence.” At the heart of these risks are, in particular, lack of knowledge, specialization, poor mental preparation. “Risks of deviance” were regarded as “risks of incompetence”, but now they are ring-fenced in a separate group. Risks of deviance - risks which are based on anti-social mentality, aggression, intolerance, racism, and so on. In the article the above mentioned types of risk are discussed. Definitions of risks of deviance and incompetence are formulated. Their characteristics and examples of them are provided. A special group of risks associated with a level of social development is highlighted.

The global spread of the SARS COV-2 virus and the related Coronavirus Disease-19 (Covid-19) has forced the entire planet to suddenly adopt important safety standards and reorganize social reality. The present research investigates the perception of psychological, relational, and pedagogical risks and needs in the developmental age (3-18 years) by the parents of different Italian regions during the quarantine period. Specifically, we examined the opinions of parents regarding the rules of social distancing and the continuous and massive use of new technologies for distance learning (DL). The results showed that Italian parents have two main concerns: on the one hand, the emergency in terms of health and health-related aspects; on the other, the teaching, training, and educational trajectories of children. They manifested mistrust and scepticism towards institutions and the school world, in terms of both management competence and structural and infrastructural capacity; aspects perceived as concerns also for Phase 2 and 3 of the epidemic curve.

Opis:
W pracy przedstawiono ekologiczne i zdrowotne aspekty użytkowania, zagospodarowania i unieszkodliwiania wełny mineralnej. Dzięki strukturze włóknistej, produkty z wełny mineralnej posiadają wiele unikalnych właściwości pozwalających na ich wszechstronne zastosowanie. Przy wszystkich zaletach, wełna mineralna ma jednak jedną bardzo istotną wadę – nie ulega rozkładowi. Z punktu widzenia spowalniania (retardacji) przekształcania zasobów środowiska, wprowadzenie wełny mineralnej do upraw pod szkłem, w bardzo dużym stopniu ograniczyło wykorzystanie torfowisk, które ze względów przyrodniczych, są zasobami niezmiernie istotnymi. Z drugiej jednak strony, problemy z racjonalnym wykorzystaniem poużytkowej już wełny mineralnej spowodowały m. in. powstawanie „dzikich wysypisk” i tym samym przekształcanie krajobrazu oraz, ze względu na swe cechy (włókna respirabilne), zagrożenie dla zdrowia. Produkcja wyrobów z włókien mineralnych może powodować konsekwencje ekologiczne w obrębie prawie wszystkich elementów środowiska. Do całościowej oceny wpływu wełny mineralnej na środowisko należy zastosować tzw. „ocenę cyklu życia produktu”– LCA (Life Cycle Assessment), powszechnie nazywaną “od kołyski, do grobu” - czyli od momentu wydobycia surowców do produkcji, poprzez przetworzenie, eksploatację, aż do składowania odpadu. Odpowiedzialność za ponowne zagospodarowanie poprodukcyjnej wełny mineralnej powinna spoczywać na producencie wełny.
In this study presents the environmental aspects of the use, management and disposal of mineral wool. Fiber structure makes that wool products have many unique properties enabling them to be versatile. With all the advantages of mineral wool is one very significant drawback - does not decompose. From the point of view of slowing (retardation) transformation of environmental resources, the introduction of mineral wool to crops under glass, in a very much reduced use of peatlands, which for reasons of natural resources are extremely important. On the other hand, problems of rational use of mineral wool already postconsumer caused among others formation of "wild dumps" and thus transforming the landscape, and, due to their characteristics (respirablefibers),the risk to health. Manufacture of asbestiform can cause ecological consequences within almost all elements of the environment. Therefore, the overall assessment of the impact in this case, mineral wool on the environment would need to be so. "Life cycle assessment" - called the method of LCA (Life Cycle Assessment)which is commonly called the "cradle to grave" - that is, from extraction of raw materials, through processing, exploitation, to the storage of waste. Therefore, the responsibilityfor the redevelopment of the post-production of mineral wool should lie with the producer of wool. These issues are the subject of discussion in this study.

It is necessary to realize that health concerns not only the human being but also the environment, it is the result of mutual relations between the organism, the psychic and the personality of the individual and the surrounding environment. Health is most damaging to smoking, poor nutrition, low physi- cal activity, excessive psychological stress, excessive alcohol consumption, drug abuse, risky sexual behavior. Demography is a doctrine of the population, it deals with dynamic and statistical indica- tors - population, migration, etc. The most important method is demographic statistics. Mortality or mortality is the ratio of the number of deaths to the given disease to the total number of inhabitants in the given administrative unit. For example, breakdowns into groups of men, women, children under 15 or occupations, injuries, etc. Prevention is a set of measures to prevent any undesirable phenomenon such as illness, drug addi- ction, crime, accidents, failure in school, social conflicts, violence, environmental disasters, and so on. Primary prevention is specific and non-specific. Specific is targeted against disease or against the risk of disease. Primary non-specific prevention means activities leading to the strengthening and development of health through health education or a health-conscious lifestyle. Secondary prevention attempts to capture the phenomena in a timely manner and prevent their deepening, spreading and the like. It focuses on particularly vulnerable groups, such as youth, minorities or the socially weak. Tertiary prevention seeks to prevent repetition, such as crimes, illness, drug addiction, and so on. It focuses on people who have just been cured, punished, and the like. Lifestyle is a style that includes forms of voluntary behavior in given life situations that are based on indi- vidual choices from different options. The health status of the company is assessed mainly on the basis of morbidity and mortality. The sickness, incidence and prevalence of illnesses in the population is the ratio of the number of ill persons to the number of persons at risk in the population and in the time period. It expresses the incidence and prevalence indicators.

At the present time, there are many abandoned areas and places that are affected by extraction activity, but which continue to be of importance due to valuable mineral resources. This article deals with environmental protection for their future use in terms of potential mineral resources. The area of Ruskov in Eastern Slovakia is typical with its rich deposits of andesite. Currently, there is no extraction activity at the site. The problem is related to effectively securing and protecting the environment for future use. The aim of the article is to indicate the possibilities for securing and protecting the area. The procedure can be applied universally to similar types of areas. According to the physical and chemical analysis of the water sample, the water in the quarry is of a basic high magnesium-bicarbonate type. The total mineralization 375 mg/l, pH – 8.4, content of Na – 13.4 mg/l, Ca – 41.1 mg/l, Mg – 26.2 mg/l, Fe – 0.04 mg/l, Mn – 0.012 mg/l and in the hydrogeological investigation the mineralization of precipitation water ranged from 25.8 to 48.0 mg/l, pH 6.0-6 6. From the comparison of values for inflows to the pit of the old Ruskov quarry and the values of groundwater runoff in the volcanic massif, we can state that only a part (approx. 50%) of groundwater from the volcanic massif is involved in the inflow to the quarry. The greater part of the underground runoff flows in the local sub-system to the local erosion base, which is represented by the valley of the Bystré stream, or it joins the flow of the intermediate stream (Olšava valley, erosion base). In the previous extraction activity in the Old Quarry of Ruskov, as well as after it was flooded in August 2014, no adverse effects on the flow and groundwater regime were observed in the evaluated area. Based on the previous evaluation of the hydrogeological conditions of the area, we can state that after the interruption of extraction at the Ruskov – old quarry deposit and the termination of pumping of quarry water, there is no expected adverse influence on the flow and groundwater regime in the evaluated area.

This paper is a review of recent publications dealing with the consequences of the release of genetically modified (GM) crops into the environment. The summary of arguments and for and against is an attempt to summarize the debate in the media. This highly publicized issue, although only one aspect of the conflict between the biotech lobby, environmentalists and consumers. The controversy arises from the fact that neither the benefits nor the risks of GM crops are clearly defined. The study contains a summary of claims that there is a serious potential risk to the environment of positive cultivation of GM crops, with uncertain effects, and that basic manipulation of heredity could have tragic consequences. European scepticism about GM crops increases from year to year. This paper coincides with the Polish government’s introduction of a ban on the cultivation of genetically modified maize and potatoes on Polish territory. In conclusion, while a move away from GM crops is likely, the author argues that ultimately there is no turning back.

Background: This study aims to shed light on risk-mitigating tools and strategies that can be used in third-party logistics (3PL) companies to increase performance. Risk and risk management tools are identified and classified according to the managers’ feedback and the theoretical background. The most important risks for the road transportation industry are analyzed, their implications are discussed, and mitigating strategies are offered. Methodology: The study used purposive sampling from international road freight forwarders that were members of the Association of International Forwarding and Logistics Service Providers (UTIKAD) or International Transporters' Association (UND). The data were collected by questionnaire method and analyzed with SPSS 22 and AMOS programs. Results: The results show that the road transportation industry has important risks that managers have not effectively managed. According to the results, the main problems in 3PL companies are lack of coordination, lack of visibility, and poor service quality. The results support that delivery risk directly affects transportation quality and process risks. Originality In this study, transportation-related risks are analyzed, showing their impact on a company’s overall processes. Additionally, we examine whether the transportation quality creates a mediation effect or information sharing has a moderation effect on a company’s process risks. Few studies exist on transportation risks and the role of mitigating strategies in reducing these risks, and this is also a limitation of our research from the risk perspective.

Background: seafaring is an occupation with specific work-related risks, causing increased morbidity and mortality. Nevertheless, the research in the area of marine students ‘sleep quality and mental health is lacking in Lithuania, as well as other European countries. The aim was to overview scientific findings, related with occupational health risks in a seafaring population and asses the frequency of poor sleep and the relations among poor sleep, anxiety and depression in the sample of maritime students. Methods and contingent. The scientific literature review, based on PubMed sources analysis, related to occupational health risks in seafaring population, was performed. Questionnaire survey was conducted in 2014 at The Lithuanian Maritime Academy, 393 (78.9 % of them males) students participated. Sleep quality was evaluated by Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index. Anxiety and depression were assessed by Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale. Sociodemographic questions were used. The Chi-square test r Fisher exact test was used to estimate association between categorical variables. P- Values less than 0.05 were interpreted as statistically significant. Results. Scientific literature review indicate that highly stressful and exhausting working conditions on ships can lead to depression, insomnia, various types of cancer, cardiovascular, communicable, blood-born and sexually transmitted diseases. Poor sleep was found in 45.0 % of the students. Mild depression was established in 6.9 %, moderate in 2.3 %, Severe in 0.8 % of the students. Mild anxiety was found in 19.1 %, moderate in 14.8 % and Severe in 7.9 % of the students. Depression (score ?8) was significantly more frequent among third (fourth) year students (22.2 %) with poor sleep, as compared to the students demonstrating good sleep (2.7 %). Marine engineering programme students whose sleep was poor more often had depression (22.0 %), as compared to the students whose sleep was good (5.7 %). Conclusions. Seafarers have higher hospitalization and mortality rates than age-matched peers, due to exposure to unique occupational health risk factors. Maritime students had poor sleep more than anxiety or depression. Anxiety and depression were more common among the students demonstrating poor sleep rather than good sleep.

Risks of eye pathology
Opis:
In this document, the authors present the results of the long-term monitoring of the condition of the eyes of victims of the Chernobyl catastrophe. The patient examinations were conducted using our system of standard inspection and description of the condition of the eye. We have summarized the development of this system in another paper. Ocular effects in patients as a result of the Chernobyl accident have been classified either as specific irradiation injuries, attributable only to radiation exposure, or ophthalmopathology that is observed under normal conditions, but for which radiation exposure is an important risk factor. This division is particularly apparent when examining the clean-up workers in Chernobyl.

Opis:
In advanced modernity, the theory and practice of security have been modified by the effects of civilization development. One of the differences with respect to pre-modern times is the deconstruction of a simple cause and effect relationship. This state of affairs results from the cultural aetiology of threats, the overcoming of which also lies in the influence of culture, and more specifically, security culture. Safety has always been linked to risk. Today, however, this risk contains a significant element of uncertainty. The purpose of the article is to show new conditions determining the shaping of security culture in the perspective of the risk generated not by nature, but by human. The culture of being safe is the right risk that arises from estimating the likelihood of negative effects of civilization development. The above objective is related to the following questions (research problems): How does the risk determined by the progress of civilization affect the process of shaping a culture of security? To what extent will the risk society create the culture of reduction of this risk?

Opis:
In several industrial environments, mechanical risks are often combined with various contaminants such as oils and greases, which may reduce the performance of protective gloves against mechanical hazards. However, glove properties are characterized on new and clean specimens, and little is known about their residual resistance once contaminated and over time. In this study, a series of protective gloves used in metalworking companies and garages were exposed to relevant oils and greases. Used gloves were also obtained from a food processing center and a garage. Their residual resistance to mechanical risks (cutting, puncture and tearing) was evaluated using standard test methods. Results revealed in some instances a large decrease in resistance to mechanical risks. Since a corresponding change in the material aspect may not always be easily observable, this may lead to serious safety breaches. These findings demonstrate the need to further the research in this domain.

Opis:
In a three year study (2018, 2019 and 2020), some groundwater sources in Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria were evaluated for quality. A total of one hundred and eighty composite borehole water samples were collected from 10 locations/sites in the study area. The sampling sites in the study were A (Iju), B (Onipannu), C (Ilogbo), D (Arobieye), E (Igbooloye, F (Osi), G (Ijoko), H (Akeja), I (Oju-ore) and J (Iyesi). Samples collected were analyzed using standard procedure for pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), chloride and iron (Fe). Results over three years showed that the water was acidic with pH < 6.5, EC ranged from 39.52±0.79 to 134.99±0.03 µS/cm, TDS ranged from 19.43±0.42 to 81.00±0.02 mg/L, chloride was consistent at 0.02±0.00 mg/L while Fe ranged from 0.00±0.00 to 0.11±0.08 mg/L. There was no definite yearly trend except for Fe which dropped from 0.036 mg/L in 2018 to 0.011 mg/L in 2020. Modelling the data for consumption using water quality index (WQI) showed that the groundwater is of excellent quality with WQI < 50 while for health risks using the average daily dose (ADD) and hazard quotient showed that the groundwater would pose no non-carcinogenic risks. Periodic monitoring covering more parameter is recommended to reflect the proper status of groundwater sources in Ota.

Opis:
Cancer is a major cause of death in the world. Common cancers include prostate cancer, breast cancer, bladder cancer, colorectal cancer, and skin cancers. Treatment of cancer is very expensive hence the need to prevent the condition primarily, or even secondarily. Foods, like chemicals, have cumulative effects and contain substances both essential and non-essential which have been shown to be healthy. This led to acclamation and acceptance of certain foods as providing health benefits – functional foods. Functional foods and nutraceuticals are chemopreventive to cancers as evidenced by different researches conducted over the years. This does not conclude that functional foods and nutraceuticals have an all-preventive effect because some research findings implicate them in cancer risks and progression. This review aims to discuss some of these foods and the chemoprotective compounds therein to aid further clinical studies. Foods investigated for their role in cancer risks and included in this review are: grapes, tomatoes, red peppers, berries, chestnut, ginseng, Rhodiola, green tea, soy, garlic, and cruciferous vegetables. This review also considered the so-called antioxidant nutrients – selenium, vitamins A, B, C, D and E. Others include glucosamine, chondroitin, melatonin, MSM, which were taken as supplements. Anyway researches are still on-going relating cancers and foods as this list is supposedly not exhaustive.

Opis:
Alternative payment methods become more and more popular among customers. Today, there is over 300 alternative payment schemes and more than 200 alternative payment methods what makes understanding the alternative payments difficult. Today APMs are the initial stage of their development. Despite the growing interest in alternative payment methods and instruments, there is still a lack of commonly accepted definition and precise market data. The purpose of the paper is to identify the alternative payment methods, provide their taxonomy, assess their development and describe associated risks of frauds. The review of APMs classification shows that they use different criteria: objective, subjective or combined. The paper proposes the definition that has changed those paradigms and has focused on payments’ innovativeness and their ability to fulfil customers’ expectations. The lack of homogenous taxonomy makes the assessment of the stage of APMs development difficult, but the paper presents the probe of such assessment based on the data of APMs usage in different regions of the world. The paper also identify frauds and threats related to APM : phishing, goods wheedling, keylogger software, malicious software, partner and DBOD risks. In the final part it discusses the factors influencing APMs further development such as new regulations, developing multichannel platforms and new business models, changes in consumer behaviour and concerns about the security. The results of the study are based on the critical analysis of available, not extensive existing literature regarding alternative financial services (including payments), statistical data of research companies and institutions altogether with consultancy firms’ reports.
