In its entirety, this applies to transport companies that are growing dynamically, especially with regard to road and freight vehicle transport. These assumptions underlie the authors' scientific interest in one of the functions of management, which is motivation. The article shows that it is interpreted in many different ways. It has a special dimension when dealing with transport companies, where two main groups of employees can be distinguished: drivers and employees of other departments who care for the effective functioning of the company. It has been indicated that motivation plays an important role in achieving the set goals. In the case of transport companies, motivation is \"governed\" by slightly different laws than in the case of other economic entities. In the case of drivers, who are mainly men, the main motivator is cash prizes. The results of the conducted research showed that various types of motivators are appreciated in relation to the remaining employees of transport companies. Regardless of the function performed or the nature of the tasks performed, they are to be a positive stimulus of behaviour and attitudes aimed at achieving the company's goals.","PeriodicalId":45963,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Shipping and Transport Logistics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85772000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The specified crisis situations imply specific actions of the public administration, which carries out its mission on the basis of national and international legal regulations. However, the forces and resources of the civil administration are not always able to provide assistance to all victims of crisis situations, in accordance with the applicable procedures. The implementation of procedures for providing aid and liquidating the effects of crisis situations requires specific, logistically prepared forces and resources. The legal regulations introduced on the basis of experience make it possible to use military forces to provide logistical support to the administration in crisis situations. Hence, in the second part of the article, the authors focused on presenting and familiarizing the reader with the possibility of using the Armed Forces in logistic support of civil administration, with particular emphasis on engineering troops and their support components, prepared to eliminate the effects of crisis situations.","PeriodicalId":45963,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Shipping and Transport Logistics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76794610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The modern soldier represents a different level of psychophysical resources. The new, more precise and at the same time more complicated to use equipment forces a change in the concept of preparing a soldier to perform tasks. Directing the development of the contemporary battlefield forces the continuous expansion of the cognitive level, both in the general and specialist area.
