Príspevok poukazuje na podmienky a povinnosti zamestnávateľov školiť svojich zamestnancov o bezpečnosti a ochrane zdravia pri práci (BOZP). Otázka školenia je rôznorodá čo do obsahovej náplne pre jednotlivých zamestnancov tak časového rozsahu prípravy. V Európe sa kladú práve podmienky prípravy zamestnancov na popredné miesto z hľadiska zabezpečenia podmienok prevencie.

Paper deals with conditions and responsibilities employers to train their personnel about protection of health and work safety. The question of training is very various in opinion content and time programme. In Europe training about protection belong to one from the first position prevention and work conditions.

Background The objective of the study has been to evaluate the pathogenic bacteria contamination of touch surfaces in hospital wards. Material and Methods Samples were taken from frequently touched surfaces in the hospital environment in 13 units of various types. Culturing was carried out on solid blood agar and in growth broth (tryptic soy broth – TSB). Species identification was performed using the analytical profile index (API) biochemical testing and confirmed with matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) system. Results The total of 161 samples were taken for the study. Fifty-two of them, after 24 h of culture on a solid medium, demonstrated bacterial growth and further 60 samples had growth after prior multiplication in TSB. Overall, 69.6% of samples exhibited growth of 19 bacterial species. Pathogenic species – representing indicator organisms of efficiency of hospital cleaning – was demonstrated by 21.4% of samples. Among them Acinetobacter spp., Enterocococci spp. and Staphylococcus aureus were identified. Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) were predominant. The proportion of various groups of bacteria significantly varied in respective hospitals, and in various types of wards. Disturbing observation is a large proportion of resistance of isolated CNS strains as a potential reservoir of resistance genes. Conclusions The results show that touch surfaces in hospital units are contaminated by both potentially pathogenic and pathogenic bacterial species. In connection with the reported, also in Poland, frequent omission or incorrect execution of hand hygiene by hospital staff, and probably patients, touch surfaces still constitute important reservoir of pathogenic bacteria. Improving hand hygiene compliance of health-care workers with recommendations is necessary for increasing biological safety of hospital environment. Med Pr 2017;68(3):459–467

Labour compliance is essential to protect workers’ rights and promote sustainable, responsible and effective business development. It necessitates continuous preparation of preventive compliance reports on occupational risks, usually requiring studies and their timely updates, risk analysis, training oriented resource management, and training of workers and managers. Greater self-regulation, such as compliance, can help mitigate risk of penal sanctions for individuals who fail to comply with risk prevention regulations, seriously endangering health and safety at work. A robust and effective compliance programme in this area aims to ensure legal and contractual obligations are met, particularly with respect to protecting the life and health of workers. Compliance can also bolster company success, minimise reputational damage for corporations, avoid payment of hefty fines and suspension of permits and licenses that would halt operations, among others.

The article focuses on changing trends in the dependent work is legislated, especially on the increased demand for home working during the COVID-19 pandemic. The author points out the shortcomings of the current legislation (organization of work, safety and health at work, liability, compensation for the use of the employee’s own resources, etc.) and adds considerations about possible future directions. In this context, the author also considers other necessary changes in the legal regulation of labour relations and social security, which will bring the current legal regulation closer to the reality of the 21st century.

Jednadvacáté století bude, alespoň to tak prozatím vypadá, stoletím moderních technologií. Moderní technologie prostupují společností a v řadě případů modifikují, nebo umožňují a urychlují modifikaci některých ustálených schémat lidských činností, včetně způsobu výkonu práce. Spolu s tím se z různých důvodů mění některá další základní společenská paradigmata, například formy partnerského soužití. Právní řád na tyto změny ve výchozích momentech uspořádání společnosti reaguje v řadě případů příliš pomalu. Předložený text poukazuje na některé z těchto problematických momentů a naznačuje směry možného řešení.
