The paper deals with the issue of occupational health and safety in a metalworking manufacturing organization. Hazard and threat have been defined when cutting metal materials with a band saw. We assessed the risk by an extended point method, where we determined the risk rate values. In most cases of sawmill work, we found a “moderate” or “negligible” risk. The highest, ‘serious’ risk we found in a possible electric shock. In this case, we have also taken the necessary actions. As a precaution, we have also proposed safety measures for other threats.

“…Organizations with a positive safety culture communicate E. SUJOVÁ, H. ČIERNA -Complex evaluation of safety culture determinants… 185 based on mutual trust and share perceived importance of safety and trust in effectiveness of prevention [4]. IAEA states that safety culture is a diagram of characteristics and approaches in an organization and individuals that determine that the main priority are questions of safety in the organization, and as such they receive attention that ensures their importance [3]. Organizations with high safety culture and with developed understanding of safety at work have the following characteristics:…”

“…The reason for this differentiation is due to the difference of studied elements. Safety is studied in terms of several factors, specifically for different industries, different directions of management and other potential problems [3]. Different evaluations, different kinds of surveys and methods of evaluation lead to incomparable results, since they result from different criteria.…”

The paper addresses complex evaluation of safety culture in Slovak manufacturing enterprises by utilizing specific determinants. To accommodate conditions of enterprises in Slovakia, a specific research method was developed for the study of safety culture, which can also be used for manufacturing and non-manufacturing enterprises. We have selected the questionnaire method. Due to the scope of the research, we have defined ten determinants, which form the basis for evaluation of safety culture elements. When determining the level of the specific ten determinants of safety culture, we studied interdependence between the enterprise’s industry, its size (small, medium, large) and points assigned to each determinant. The results of the study are evaluated using a 3D point graph. The discussion shows parts that were evaluated the highest or lowest and outlines suggested approaches to improve the current state.

“…The information uncertainties in terms of technological innovation, patent protection strength, competition situation, and other factors among trading nations are important reasons regarding the creation of patent risk, and therefore these factors should be considered in the evaluation process. The value of weight reflects the influence of the risk factor in question [6]. Tavana et al (2010) applied the fuzzy euclid framework in their project evaluation, indicating that artificial judgement was still the core information support for the decision [7].…”

Patent protection is a critical aspect of sustainable technology innovation, which is currently facing the challenge of patent risk. This study aimed to help enterprises prevent and avoid patent risk in a global view of technology innovation, and to propose a systematic evaluation model for patent risk. By combining the entropy method with the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), this study constructed an analytic hierarchy model of patent risk. Some indexes in the model were selected based on the summary of prior literature, and other indexes were selected according to experts’ communication, which helped us to generalize the patent risk as comprehensively as possible. The AHP evaluation results determined the weight and relative materiality for each risk factor, which were contained in a criteria layer and a sub-criteria layer. The entropy method integrated the evaluation weights of different experts’ opinions. By dividing the risk factors into three categories, namely “high”, “medium”, or “low”, according to the priority degree, the risk priority ranking was obtained. Suggestions are discussed regarding support for enterprises in dealing with patent risk that may occur during international trade or other commercial activities.
