Survey techniques were used for the analysis.

Rapidly increasing cost of living in Poland is reflected in a high professional activity of students. Currently, the majority of the students on the Polish labor market is employed on the basis of civil law agreements. Civil agreements do not guarantee a sense of security and they are attractive primarily for employers. The civil contract allows employers to reduce employment costs. Their attractiveness for the employees is connected with the flexibility of working time. The advantage for the students of performing work under civil agreements is that it allows them to combine study with work. But they prefer part-time work. Civil contracts are often pejoratively referred to as “junk contracts”, because they do not protect employee’s interests. This is particularly observed during a crisis (like in the current situation connected with the COVID-19 pandemic). The aim of this paper is to present the results of the analysis of the situation of working students and the possibility of its impact on anti-crisis actions taken by the government in order to protect society against the effects of the pandemic. The research was conducted among students of Lodz University of Technology (Poland) in the first quarter of 2020, with the use of an on-line survey. The study assumes that the preference of employers concerning the employment of students based on atypical forms results in the lack of protection in new and unpredictable situations such as the current one. The article determines students level of knowledge about the available forms of assistance under the Anti-Crisis Shield 2.0. The research shows that very few respondents are aware of the accessible assistance guaranteed by the Act.

Since 2010 a survey has been conducted among first-year students about sources of information which influence the decision of undertaking field studies in Safety Engineering, Management Engineering and Logistics in the Faculty of Engineering Management at Poznan University of Technology. The goal of these analyses is both to assess the effectiveness of promotion and also show trends in the use of diverse channels of information transfer of studies. The results of the investigation show that internet promotion via university and faculty website plays the dominant role but also direct promotion, such as opinion of older friends, is crucial. Furthermore, from year to year the analyses indicate the significant increase of official media and reveal that the prospective students rely on a few sources of information simultaneously.

The aim of the study was to analyze the risk factors of back pain in M.A. students. The study involved 150 physical therapy students from the University School of Physical Education (AWF) in Krakow and 100 applied information technology (IT) students from the Cracow University of Technology. The study group was determined on the basis of dean’s lists and quota sampling. The study was conducted using a proprietary questionnaire. The results showed that the level of knowledge on prevention of back pain in physical therapy students is greater than in science students. Physiotherapy students experience back pain more often than IT students. The physical activity level of physical therapy students is higher than the IT students. The type of activity may signifi cantly affect the occurrence of back pain in students. The presented results may be indicative of the significant effect of stress on the occurrence of pain among students.

The data has been received by using the questionnaire, and the results have been analysed by using spearman rho test. Result:  As according to the statistics test, it is found that p-value= 0,000 on the significant level (α) = 0,05 and r = 0,752. It is concluded that there is a connection between knowledge and the prevention of community breakdown in handling of the volcanic eruption in Rt 06/Rw 01. This research shows that the level of knowledge within the community about disaster management and prevention in handling volcanic eruption has been increasing. Conclution: This is shown by the capability of the community in mitigating the effects of the disaster. It is hoped that the community will further engage in training education and simulation to reduce the negative impacts of a disaster. The location where the participants resideis Kelud Volcano, and it is therefore hoped that the communities are willing to participate in better handling of any disaster by joining the education training and simulation; Kata kunci : Pengetahuan, Manajemen bencana, Prevention.
