El presente estudio tuvo por objetivo identificar los niveles de accidentabilidad y riesgos laborales del personal que opera con equipos vacuums, que constituyen camiones de vacío para succión, transporte y evacuación de fluidos, en la empresa de servicios petroleros Conexpet Cía. Ltda. El estudio de caso es descriptivo, con investigación de campo efectuada a 89 operadores, apoyado en revisión bibliográfica-documental, indagando especificar propiedades y características de las personas en su desempeño laboral. La evaluación dio como resultado un déficit en la selección, capacitación y entrenamiento del talento humano, permitiendo luego de la valoración, implementar competencias asociadas a riesgos laborales. Se concluye que existe una relación directa entre el nivel de accidentabilidad y los riesgos laborales, debido a que un 85% de los accidentes laborales presentados en la empresa, son producidos por acciones subestándar. Las estrategias y competencias propuestas pueden replicarse, obteniendo entre otras ventajas: reducción de tiempo perdido, menor costo de mano de obra para reemplazos, baja rotación de personal, mayor productividad y competitividad.Palabras clave: Riesgos laborales, Vacuums, Accidentabilidad, Talento Humano, Competencias Laborales.   AbstractThe objective of this study was to identify the levels of accidents and occupational risks of personnel working with vacuum equipment, which constitute vacuum trucks for suction, transport and fluid evacuation, at the oil services company Conexpet Cía. Ltda. The case study is descriptive, with field research carried out on 89 operators, supported by bibliographic-documental review, asking to specify properties and characteristics of people in their work performance. The evaluation resulted in a deficit in the selection, training and training of human talent, allowing after assessment, implement skills associated with occupational risks. It is concluded that there is a direct relationship between the level of accident rate and occupational risks, because 85% of work accidents presented in the company are produced by substandard actions. The proposed strategies and competences can be replicated, obtaining among other advantages: reduction of lost time, lower cost of labor for replacements, low turnover of personnel, greater productivity and competitiveness. Key words: Occupational Risks, Vacuums, Accident, Human Talent, Labor Competencies.

Due to its dynamic nature, rapid technology change, uneducated employees, harsh working conditions, many work accidents, and heavy consequences of accidents, occupational health and safety (OHS) practices are essential in the construction industry. However, occupational Health and Safety measures in the construction industry come with additional costs. Therefore, employers who have to bear a cost to take OHS measures may consider OHS costs unnecessary without considering the costs they will bear after work accidents and occupational diseases. This research aims to estimate the optimal costs of OHS budgets to reduce the number of accidents with lost time injury and whether the carried costs for occupational health and safety in the construction industry impact the lost time injuries. Therefore, OHS costs in the construction industry are grouped into eight categories: fire, work equipment, electricity, health, personal protective equipment, general equipment, training and occupational health and safety service costs. This research is based on the standard unit costs set for the 8 OHS criteria required by the OHS laws, accident severity rates and actual unit costs that the projects have carried for five years for the construction of 15 buildings with 220.000 m2- 500.000 m2 indoor space which is located in Istanbul Turkey, started in 2013 and completed in 2017. Since the research was conducted before January 1, 2020, there is no requirement for an ethics committee permission document. According to the research results, as the costs of occupational health and safety services, fire and training increased, accident severity rates has decreased. However, the impact of other variables on accident severity rates was not statistically significant. Thus, construction enterprises that want to decrease the accident severity rates in their projects need to emphasise occupational health and safety services, fire, and training criteria.

Intensive manual labor enterprises in the developed world face challenges competing with products imported from countries where manufacturing costs are low. This reduces the volume of domestic production and leads to rapid loss of knowledge and experience in production processes. This study focuses on the Israeli footwear industry as a case study. Qualitative methodologies were applied, including in-depth interviews and field observations. A literature review on previous research, and contemporary trends was conducted. The field research examines challenges along the value chain in small factories. It finds that mass production paradigms impose a decentralized process between designers and manufacturers and therefore do not leverage local potential into a sustainable competitive advantage for small factories. The proposed solution is a digital and technological platform for small manufacturing plants. The platform mediates and designs the connections between production, technology, and design and enables the creation of a joint R&D system.

Present Case Study

In the last decades, geophysical methods such as magnetic survey have become a common technique for prospecting archaeological sites. At sub-Saharan archaeological sites, however, magnetic survey and correlated techniques never came into broad use and there are no signs for an immediate change of this situation. This paper examines the magnetic survey undertaken on the Nigerian site of Zilum, a settlement of the Gajiganna Culture (ca 1800-400 BC) located in the Chad Basin and dated to ca 600-400 BC. By means of the present case study, we demonstrate the significance of this particular type of investigation in yielding complementary data for understanding the character of prehistoric settlements. In conclusion, we point out that geophysical methods should play a more important role in modern archaeological field research, as they furnish a class of documentation not achievable by traditional survey and excavation methods, thus creating new perspectives for interpreting the past of African societies.

Democratic System

Oftentimes, democracy is not spread out evenly over the territory of a country. Instead, pockets of authoritarianism can persist within a democratic system. A growing body of literature questions how such subnational authoritarian enclaves can be democratized. Despite fascinating insights, all existing pathways rely on the actions of elites and are therefore top-down. This article seeks to kick-start the discussion on a bottom-up pathway to subnational democratization, by proposing the attrition mechanism. This mechanism consists of four parts and is the product of abductive inference through theory-building causal process tracing. The building blocks consist of subnational democratization literature, social movement theory, and original empirical data gathered during extensive field research. This case study focuses on the ‘Dynasty Slayer’ in the province of Isabela, the Philippines, where civil society actors used the attrition mechanism to facilitate subnational democratization. This study implies that civil society actors in subnational authoritarian enclaves have agency.

Digitalization has transformed all aspects of life, from social interactions to the working environment and education, something that accelerated with the emergence of COVID-19. The same stands for education and training activities, where the use of digital tools has been gradually advancing and become merely online because of the virus. This brought forth the need to discuss further the applications, benefits, and challenges of digital tools within the framework of the education and training process, and the need to study examples of successful applications. This study aims to support both these requirements by presenting the case study of REFUGEEClassAssistance4Teachers project and its outcomes.
