The media delivers information and data to the public, which means that the media should be objective and credible. The broader image of the media in the world, however, is not at all good. Public ...opinion polls and opinions of respected world journalists indicate currently key problems, such as a high level of unreliability, sensationalism, publication errors that are usually not corrected and inadequate disclosure of important information. One of the most emphasized problems is the dependence of the media on the source of funding, which calls into question their objectivity, their impact on society and a number of other problems. According to this thesis, many individuals “pump” the money into media, so that the media plays a huge role in creating public opinion. The media experience a growing sense of power so they growingly use their power in the most aggressive and selfish possible manner. Today, with the existence of certain regulations that control the purchase and sale of media, the manipulation of power takes place at the highest level. According to such an opinion, manipulating the media is a major disease that is spreading through our society. This is confusing to people because anyone can promote whatever they want as long as they have enough money. This article accordingly, highlights several recent examples of media dysfunction. The latest example is based on the so-called pandemic disease COVID-19 media covering. Ever since the COVID-19 crisis begun, the central media have exposed all their bias. Moreover, they propagated the idea of COVID-19 as a severe pandemic and the idea of vaccine as a lifesaving approach. They wrote about the ‘worst disease in history’, about a ‘life-saving solution in the form of a vaccine’, about ‘how drugs do not work at all’, etc. So they selected data and still do so through their ‘scientific media heroes’, excluding all other scientific facts that indicated or confirmed opposing views (PCR test and declaration of a pandemic, ineffectiveness and even harmfulness of vaccines, false scientific studies, etc.). An example of a perhaps greatest dangers that occurred to the media is also presented – the so called journalism of the Faktograf type. Under the guise of scientific scrutiny, medically undereducated journalists give themselves the right to comment and present the “universal truth” in public, almost always referring to selected scientific facts without the whole information context. They are not concerned by the evidence (meta-study - example of wearing masks, PCR diagnostics, meaninglessness of lockdown, Ivermectin). The verification of information started due to a need to verify the source and type of information but has ended now in the complete opposite and has degenerated from the starting idea. This is just an example pointing to a need for restructuring of the current media, to make them financially independent and re-install the reporting objectivity. The media should not create public opinion in any way but provide credible information and the look on the whole context.
Potreba za »sigurnošću na radu utemeljenom na dokazima« (engl. evidence-based occupational safety) postaje sve veća te je jedan od novih i aktualnih izazova u znanosti o sigurnosti i struci. Cilj ...ovoga rada je predstaviti rezultate istraživanja o stvarnome čuvanju obvezne dokumentacije (evidencije) u slovenskim velikim i srednje velikim poduzećima koju su prema slovenskome Zakonu o varnosti in zdravju pri delu (Zakon o sigurnosti i zdravlju na radu) dužna čuvati. Na 1.300 elektroničkih adresa velikih i srednje velikih trgovačkih društava poslan je upitnik za procjenu provedbe mjera sigurnosti na radu. Utvrdili smo da se u anketiranim poduzećima prosječno u 87,5 % slučajeva provode aktivnosti vođenja evidencija s područja sigurnosti na radu, što je razmjerno visok stupanj provedbe. Najviši stupanj provedbe trajnoga čuvanja dokumentacije odnosno vođenja evidencija s područja sigurnosti na radu poduzeća iskazuju u vezi s nesrećama na radu (97,6 %), zdravstvenim pregledima radnikâ (97,3 %) te osposobljavanjem radnikâ (96,1 %). Najniži stupanj vođenja evidencija s područja sigurnosti na radu uočava se na području pregledavanja i ispitivanja osobne zaštitne opreme (79,4 %). Zaključci ovoga istraživanja imaju teorijske i praktične implikacije za sve koji se bave planiranjem, provedbom i kontrolom sigurnosti na radu na temelju stvarno dostupnih informacija.
The need for "evidence-based occupational safety" is growing and represents one of the new and current challenges in the safety science and profession. The purpose of our article is to present the results on the actual storage of the mandatory documentation (records) in the Slovenian large and medium-sized companies, which they are obliged to keep under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. We sent a questionnaire to 1.300 e-mail addresses of large and medium-sized companies to evaluate the implementation of the occupational safety measures. We found that in the surveyed companies, on average, 87,5 % meet the activities of keeping records in the field of occupational safety, which represents a relatively high level of compliance. The highest level of implementation of permanently kept documentation or keeping records in the field of occupational safety is shown in the connection with accidents at work (97, 6 %), medical examinations of employees (97,3 %) and in connection with employee training (96, 1 %). The lowest level of record keeping in the field of occupational safety is observed in the field of inspections and tests of personal protective equipment (79, 4 %). The findings from our research have theoretical and practical implications for all those involved in the planning, implementation, and control of occupational safety based on actually available information.
Rad se
bavi leksikografskom obradom pragmatičkih informacija u suvremenim hrvatskim
dvojezičnim tiskanim rječnicima dvaju slavenskih (makedonski, ruski) te dvaju
germanskih jezika (engleski, ...njemački) s hrvatskim kao polaznim jezikom. Uvodna
poglavlja rada posvećena su definiciji pojma
pragmatičke informacije
te
utvrđivanju načina i sredstava njihova prezentiranja u rječnicima. Središnji
dio rada posvećen je analizi primjera leksikografskih opisa pragmatičkih
informacija na makrorazini i mikrorazini izabranih rječnika, dok se u završnom
dijelu rada raspravlja o mogućnostima unapređivanja njihove leksikografske
obrade.
The paper deals with lexicographic processing of pragmatic information (PI) in contemporary Croatian bilingual printed dictionaries of two Slavic and two Germanic languages with Croatian as the starting language (Croatian‒Macedonian/Russian/English/German dictionary). The introductory part of the paper deals with the definition of PI and the lexicographic ways and means of their presentation. The central part of the paper analyzes the examples of PI descriptions from the selected bilingual dictionaries, while the final chapter discusses the methodology for studying the pragmatic features of lexemes, the possibilities of enhancing lexicographic processing of PI in future, and the importance of such information for dictionary users.

Cilj. Rad daje prikaz online servisa i usluga Centra za znanstvene informacije (Cen- tar) Instituta „Ruđer Bošković“ koji su korisnicima bili dostupni i prije pojave pandemi- je bolesti COVID-19, kao ...i tijekom zatvaranja knjižnice i rada od kuće.
Pristup. Zbog krize izazvane pandemijom bolesti COVID-19 Centar za znanstvene informacije (Centar), kao i druge knjižnice u Hrvatskoj, 20. 3. 2020. godine zatvorio je svoja vrata i prešao na „rad od kuće“. Zahvaljujući brojnim servisima (CROSBI, FULIR, SEND i drugi) koji korisnicima omogućuju udaljeni pristup uslugama i infor- macijskim servisima, Centar je krizu dočekao spreman te je i u izvanrednim okolnosti- ma uspio kvalitetno osigurati većinu usluga.
Rezultati. Centar za znanstvene informacije među prvim knjižnicama u Hrvatskoj 1990-ih godina prihvatio je i uveo nove informacijske tehnologije u svoje poslovanje. Kontinuirano je radio na njihovom razvoju, implementaciji i primjeni, što je omogućilo da je tijekom „rada od kuće“ ne samo pružao korisnicima većinu svojih standardnih usluga već je radio i na daljnjem razvoju postojećih servisa. Nepredvidive krizne si- tuacije tijekom 2020. godine poslužile su kao potvrda da je taj smjer razvoja knjižnica nužan i nezaobilazan te da u njega treba ulagati.
Originalnost. Centar za znanstvene informacije uspješno je odgovorio na krizu izazvanu pandemijom bolesti COVID-19, stoga prikazani servisi, usluge i praktična rješenja mogu poslužiti kao primjer i drugim knjižnicama koje se suočavaju sa sličnim izazovima.
