The importance of OHS practices has increased over recent years due both to high levels of fatal accidents in the logistics industry, and chronic shortage of labor in the sector, which requires systematic efforts to reduce absenteeism and increase warehouse employee motivation. This article aims to address the current state of some fundamental OHS practices of warehouse workers in Bulgarian manufacturing and trading organizations, and to outline some recommendations for their future improvements. The data were collected using the questionnaire survey method among 91 manufacturing and trading organizations in Bulgaria, which operate warehouses, and were processed using Chi-square analysis. The results show that the share of trading organizations, which implement OHS practices is lower, in comparison with surveyed manufacturing organizations. In addition, small organizations lag behind medium and large regarding the use of fundamental measures to protect warehouse workers. The main research findings indicate that there is a need to expand the frequency of OHS practices applied in trading organizations through a wider implementation of joint firefighting drills with fire and emergency safety authorities, adaptation of warehouse infrastructure, clear designation of emergency exits and placement of signs/work instructions for safe work at workplaces. Furthermore, it is critical to increase the use of appropriate work clothing and personal protective equipment (PPE), as well as to provide regular safety briefings in trading warehouses and small organizations.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136280569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the theoretical part, individual software applications in the field of occupational health and safety, fire protection, which are used in Slovakia and the Czech Republic are clearly described. The article contains a brief overview of the legislative regulations on the basis of which the obligations for management decisions in enterprises arise. A telephone survey was conducted in 110 micro, small and medium-sized enterprises between 2022 and 2023 in order to determine the use of software solutions in ensuring the fulfilment of obligations in the field of occupational safety and health and fire protection. To collect data, research questions were set and a questionnaire was developed, which included 6 merit questions, identification questions and a specific question aimed at finding out the prioritisation of the most preferred mobile application features in the study area. The questions were closed-ended, with options where the respondent could choose only one answer. SPSS for Windows version 21.0 was used for statistical analysis and processing of the collected data. We used methods of statistical description, analysed using relative abundance, arithmetic mean, standard deviation and median. At the level of statistical inference, we used chi-square goodness-of-fit tests to analyse categorical variables. We also used nonparametric tests, Friedman analysis of variance, 3D pie charts, and 3D group bar charts. We found that business representatives had a significantly higher preference for the functionality \"record of initial and recurrent BOZP and PO training\", followed by the second most preferred functionality \"OSH inspections and fire prevention inspections\". The research focused on logistics enterprises.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"160 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136280089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The construction business is profoundly impacted by the prevalence of inaccurate cost and schedule prediction. The main strategy to improve the project performance is to evaluate the hybrid sustainable materials using the artificial neural network (ANN) method based on the effective factors in construction projects in Iraq. This strategy needs an effective method to classify the project input representation and specify the accurate activity of each factor. This paper uses a hybrid artificial neural network to correlate and classify the sustainable hybrid of construction projects to evaluate their performance. The contribution of this method is the selection of the Multi-Criteria Decision-Maker method (MCDM) based on time and cost-effective factors correlated with the artificial neural network method. A dynamic selection procedure for project materials may be created using the existing technique as an evolutionary model for successful project completion. The MCDM observed that the appropriate sustainable material was considered as the main factor with a rank of 0.823 for cost effect and 0.735 for time effect and the main influence factor in Iraqi projects was the building height. The results present superior functional cost evaluation results correlated with the selection of hybrid sustainable materials.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"160 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136279915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since telework may be linked to a tool to reduce traffic in urban areas, this research aims to determine the impact that telework has on traffic congestion in Madrid (Spain), given a post-Covid19 context in which many organizations have implemented teleworking in the long term. This study provides evidence that teleworking has had a limited favourable impact on traffic in the city of Madrid based on the correlation between telework implementation and the traffic data collected from 7.365 traffic sensors located in Madrid that are distributed and managed by the Madrid City Council. Covid19 represents an influx point with regard to telework implementation, allowing this kind of research to interpret the answer to the question. The results of our research, through regression calculations and Pearson's correlation coefficient, show that telework in the city of Madrid does not generate a positive impact on traffic during peak times proportional to the increase of telework, as expected based on the existing literature. However, there are other elements that influence the modal choice that may affect this correlation, considering that teleworking allows people greater residence flexibility and that residence location and distance to the workplace are factors that significantly influence the modal choice of transport.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136280118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study's relevance is caused by the fact that periodic port blockades do not allow Ukraine to carry out reliable exports of agricultural products along classical routes. Therefore, there was a need to find new alternatives for exporting agricultural commodities, primarily grain. The study aims to substantiate, describe, structure, and mathematically formalize proposed delivery options and choose the best. The research justifies picking supply chains using automobile and railway transport from Ukraine to the European Union countries. According to three proposed technologies, grain cargoes are exported in batches using containers. The advisability is justified for using each considered delivery option regarding technological aspects. Mathematical modeling, particularly regression analysis, is used to design supply chains. In this case, selecting the best technology is confirmed by corresponding calculations according to designed regression models. The presented option for supplying agricultural commodities is the safest and most reliable but more expensive. However, such logistics will be an excellent solution to reduce the negative consequences of a possible food crisis for the global economy.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136280567","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The accidents were classified into those in which there was only material damage or injured people {Severity=0} and in those in which people died {Severity=1}. 115 association rules were obtained, 79 corresponding to non-fatal accidents, and 36 to fatal ones. The main factors associated with the severity of the accident belong to male subjects, involved in accidents that occur on weekends and in suburban areas, and where the probability of the accident being fatal is 1.69 times greater. Thus, the results of using the association rules to relate demographic and circumstantial characteristics of the accident with the severity of the injuries show an accuracy of just over 65%. Therefore, despite the limitations that may occur due to the omission of relevant variables, and the fact that the results show little precision, the feasibility of using machine learning techniques and, specifically, the association rules as promising tools to help analyze accidents and help launch road safety interventions more effectively is manifested.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136280419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2021 there was an increase in the percentage of toroidal disability, namely the highest percentage of disability at 2.78%, while in 2020 the highest percentage of disability was only 1.33%. Therefore, companies need to make improvements to the quality of their products to prevent a continuous rise in the percentage of defects over time. This study aims to propose an enhancement to reduce/prevent defects in toroidal inductor products. The method used is the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA). The FMEA method is utilized to reduce flaws that occur by considering the value of the risk priority number (RPN). The FTA method is used to identify possible defects by applying analysis of the fault tree description. The results of this study are that improvements should be focused on the failure mode of the wound wire because it gets the highest RPN value of 216 with the cause being less focused workers, while the lowest RPN value is on the red pin failure mode of 56 with the cause of no sandpaper changing schedule. From the results of the study, several suggestions for improvements were made in the form of increasing supervision for workers, increasing rest periods, conducting training, installing display limits for stripping, repairing stripping machines, replacing vise, repairing worktables, and making a schedule for sandpaper replacement prevents the defect. Companies must make improvements to human flows and ensure tools and materials are in optimal condition.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136342379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
