Energy efficiency is gaining in importance as part of environmental efficiency within sustainable development. Many enterprises realize the need for the reduction of energy costs and improved control of energy consumption. This can be achieved by implementing the concept of energy efficiency. The subject of research in this paper is the analysis of the way in which energy efficiency can be measured within an enterprise. Therefore, the aim of the research is to define a set of indicators for measuring energy efficiency in an enterprise, as well as to point out cost advantages and competitiveness that are achieved by applying energy efficiency management.
In order to establish sustainable economic growth, governments around the world are increasingly introducing programs to support the environmental aspects of companies' business as part of their policies. In order to meet the demands of the market, and at the same time contribute to the realization of the principle of sustainability, companies increasingly invest in research and development and eco-innovation. The number of green patents is often used as a parameter of the intensity of eco-innovation. The question is how the possession of green patents affects the performance of companies and the economic growth of the national economies in which they operate. The subject of this paper is to consider the impact of green patents on the economic growth of national economies that are leading in the number of applied green patents. The aim of this paper is to determine the relationship between the selected indicators of green patents and the gross domestic product of these national economies.
Tema su ovoga rada arhitekti, graditelji i mjernici (geometri) na prostoru grada Mostara u razdoblju austrougarske uprave, ali i u posljednjem razdoblju osmanske vladavine. Otkrivene su njihove biografije, pozicije koje su zauzimali u graditeljskoj strukturi i autorstvo nad objektima ili urbanistièkim potezima. Utvrđeni su uvjeti unutar kojih su radili, zakonodavno-pravni okvir i metode rada koje su dovele do promjena slike grada.
Organizations invest in different types of resources, which enable them to achieve and maintain their market position and remain competitive. With global competition and changing market environment, one of the key resources, which considerably contributes to improvement of organizations’ competitive posture, are human resources, i.e. employees. The subject of research presented in this paper are factors of employees’ motivation. The aim of the research is to determine the impact of certain factors on employee motivation, based on the importance that different motivation factors have, depending on certain personal and professional characteristics of employees. Based on the results of the survey, the most important factors of motivation are financial factors, specifically the “salary” and “financial rewards”, as well as “job security” as non-financial factor. The variance of repeated measurements showed that there is statistically significant influence of financial motivation factors on employee motivation. However, the results of the analysis of the variance indicate that it is necessary to find the appropriate combination of financial and non-financial motivators, having in mind different characteristics and needs of employees, in order for the employee motivation system to show the expected results.
