<p>This cross-sectional study investigated the use of health benefits in relation to the self-rated health of employees at two medium-sized industrial enterprises in Hälsingland. The method used to investigate this was through a self-designed questionnaire consisting 19 questions about health, lifestyle and health benefits at the workplace. A total of 100 questionnaires were distributed in the two companies, hence 50 surveys at each workplace. The response rate was measured to 88 % and 74 %, which means a loss of 6 persons and 13 persons. The results showed that Company nr 1 offers its employees a health benefits consisting of free access to gym in the company premises after working hours and financial contributions to training-cards. These benefits are used regularly by 29% of respondents. Company nr 2 currently offered no health benefits for their employees. The results also showed that 66% of the respondents at Company nr 1 rated their physical health as <em>Excellent</em> or <em>Good</em> and 79% consider their mental health as <em>Excellent</em> or <em>Good</em>. At Company nr 2, 65 % of the participants responded that they consider their physical health as Excellent or Good and 84% consider their mental health as <em>Excellent</em> or <em>Good</em>. The study also found that more than half of the participants in the two companies had a BMI (Body Mass Index) greater than 26. The conclusion from this is that the health benefits offered at Company nr 1 is used sparingly and that more than half of the participants at both companies consider their physical and mental health as <em>Excellent</em> or <em>Good</em>.</p>

At the moment, with the developing industrialization of society, as well as the growing demand and consumption of all types of end products, industry is increasing the use of energy resources to create capacities corresponding to the current time. The main industrial source of energy in the 21st century is electricity. In industries and enterprises, electricity is used in large amount, and that is why the main and urgent task to reduce the cost, increase the competitive ability of the organization and the growth of its microeconomics is the ability to reduce electricity consumption, and not by reducing production lines, but due to the correct and modern technology of its use. To solve this problem, many factors, which are expressed in quantitative and qualitative data, should be taken into consideration. But it is complicated by the fact that most often these data groups have incompleteness and uncertainty of the used information. This may be due to outdated equipment, lack of necessary technological equipment, or simply a human factor. In this regard, there is a not objective and not quite correct model and assessment of electricity usage by the enterprise. To get out of this situation with the benefit of industry, it is possible to use the mathematical apparatus of fuzzy logic. The results obtained using this method can be considered objective. Based on reasonable estimates of the impact of various factors on energy consumption and energy efficiency of the enterprise system, it is possible to develop methods for its improvement, increasing energy efficiency, reducing waste, which leads to an increase in the competitiveness of the enterprise by reducing the cost of the final product and reducing the cost for the consumer.

O principal objetivo desta pesquisa foi descrever e analisar o desenvolvimento sustentável nos micro e pequenos empreendimentos para compreender suas ações representado pelos empreendedores e ou responsáveis nas empresas. Foram realizados oito estudos de casos em micro e pequenos empreendimentos industriais do setor têxtil e da confecção no município de São Paulo. Nesta tese, valendo-se da abordagem do tripé da sustentabilidade desenvolvido por Gro Brundtlad Triple Bottom Line, partiu-se do pressuposto que o desenvolvimento sustentável, requer uma articulação entre as ciências humanas e naturais, adequando-se as estruturas industriais aos custos e a legislação. Assim, o propósito principal desta pesquisa foi identificar a relações entre os custos para implantação de programas sustentáveis e o conhecimento da legislação inerente ao negócio. O referencial teórico desta pesquisa compreende um resgate da evolução do conceito sustentável e como nele se insere a abordagem econômica, social e do meio ambiente. Incluem-se ainda, aspectos ligados à ciência geográfica e como cada uma das áreas envolvidas se articula nos aspectos físicos e humanos. Como pesquisa inicial, verificou-se o estado atual do desenvolvimento sustentável nas organizações, comparando-se com preceitos teóricos que envolvem o desenvolvimento sustentável na abordagem da gestão estratégica. Na sequência, foram levantados aspectos específicos relacionados à sustentabilidade, à responsabilidade social e ao espaço geográfico. Para a coleta de dados, foram realizadas entrevistas com representantes de cada empresa ligados aos programas sustentáveis. Os resultados apontam para uma confirmação parcial das hipóteses de pesquisa. A partir da análise descritiva verificou-se que os custos estão vinculados a adoção de programas sustentáveis nas empresas. Identificou-se também que o conhecimento da legislação não possui associação com a não adoção de programas sustentáveis nas empresas pesquisadas. As principais conclusões apontam para a necessidade de um suporte específico aos micro e pequenos empreendimentos industriais enquanto os mesmos não alcançarem um estágio mínimo para o desenvolvimento de programas ligados ao desenvolvimento sustentável. Ao mesmo tempo, os órgãos de apoio devem estar mais próximos às empresas, e devem desenvolver ações orientadora e específica, apesar do apoio e proximidade dos serviços disponíveis às micro e pequenas empresas industriais e verificar se eles necessitam de uma preparação mais ampla para implantação dos programas. / The main objective of this research is to describe and analyze the sustainable development in micro and small enterprises and understand their approaches represented by the entrepreneurs and owners. Eight case studies were held with the micro and small industrial enterprises in the textile and clothing sector in São Paulo. Making use of Gro Brundtlads Triple Bottom Line, it is known that the sustainable development requires a link between the human and natural sciences to adapt the industrial structures to the costs and also to the legislation. So the main purpose of this research is to identify the connection between the costs of implementing sustainable programs and knowledge of the law in business. The theoretical framework of this research comprises a recovery of the sustainable development concept and how it works into the economic, social and environmental approach. It includes further aspects of geographic science and how each of the areas involved are articulated in physical and human aspects. As an initial study, the current state of the sustainable development in organizations was verified and compared with theoretical rules comprising the sustainable development in the approach to strategic management. Specific aspects related to sustainability, social responsibility and geographic space were held. For data collection, interviews were conducted with the representatives from each company linked to sustainable programs. The results show a partial confirmation of the research hypotheses. Due to the descriptive analysis it was found that the costs are tied to the use of the sustainable programs in the companies. It was also identified that the knowledge of the law does not have association with the non-use of sustainable programs in the surveyed companies. The main findings show a the need for specific support to micro and small industrial enterprises as they do not reach a minimum stage for the development of the programs related to sustainable development. At the same time, the support agencies should be closer to the companies, and should develop specific guiding actions, despite the support and closeness of services available to micro and small industrial companies and check if they need a broader preparation to implement the programs.

The dissertation focuses on specifying a broader theoretical background for the implementation of leadership concepts in human resources management and on empirical identification and description of approaches that enable HR managers to recognize and develop desirable personality characteristics of a successful leader. In the surveyed area, a preliminary research was conducted on a sample of 22 HR managers. Subsequent primary research was carried out by combining a qualitative and quantitative research approach. A qualitative survey was conducted among 75 leaders, a quantitative survey was conducted on a sample of 75 leaders and 128 followers, from medium-sized industrial enterprises on the territory of South-Moravian region, in the period 3-6/2018 via a modified GLOBE questionnaire. Qualitative data were processed by content analysis. The processing of quantitative data through factor analysis has made it possible to identify the factors whose components support the success of the leader. Through the testing of statistical hypotheses, the dependence of the perceived behaviour of the leader on the satisfaction of his followers was verified. The main scientific goal is to propose a model for the development of leaders in industrial enterprises using the methods used in the concept of HRM. In order to achieve this goal, the desired concept of leadership in industrial enterprises established in the Czech Republic was identified. Based on the analysed facts, important components of the leader's personality and desirable styles of leadership of medium-sized industrial companies were identified. Team-oriented leadership style, formal style and charismatic leadership style are most desirable. Behaviour that has confirmed a positive impact on year-on-year satisfaction of subordinates is a stimulating, team-oriented, leader is an effective negotiator, dynamic, perfectionist, enthusiast, integrating, coordinator and to some extent also bureaucratic. The followers mention that their leader should be trustworthy, fair, team-oriented, diplomatic, and cooperative. Contrary to the current situation, the followers would especially welcome if the leadership behaviour was more team oriented. The grouping of the statistically significant components of the leader's personality enabled the creation of individual competence areas, whose description defined the personality profile of the leader of a medium-sized industrial company. At the same time, human resource management methods, which can influence and develop the competences defined in this area have been identified. The contribution of the dissertation consists mainly in the identification of individual components of competencies that can be developed through human resources management tools and thus develop the personality and leadership style of the middle-sized industrial company leader. The benefits of the proposed model can also be seen in terms of its use in identifying whether the leader's personality profile is in line with the expectations of his followers and in line with the leadership style, that is identified as appropriate in a medium-sized industrial environment.
