  • Hydrogen – green gold Safe storage – opportunities and challenges
    In this part of the hydrogen saga, we will present the topic of hydrogen storage, which poses a challenge for its further effective implementation in individual industries. Therefore, the question that we will look for the answer to together is: "Can (and if so), how can we safely store hydrogen?" HYDROGEN ECONOMY, HYDROGEN SOCIETY, HYDROGEN FUEL CELLS... Over the last few years, the first element of the periodic table has become the global slogan. This is because it has a chance to meet two main challenges in the global pursuit of achieving net zero emissions by 2050. Hydrogen - preferably green, but also purple, turquoise or blue. Supporters of hydrogen can cite many examples for each of its varieties. advantages, as we could see in previous articles devoted to this topic. If H2 is such a desirable factor that can revolutionize the world economy and have a positive impact on climate change, why are we still not using it on a mass scale? - First, hydrogen can help solve the eternal problem of energy intermittency. Renewable sources cannot provide a constant supply of energy because the wind does not always blow and the sun does not always shine. By converting excess energy produced on windy or sunny days into hydrogen, the gas can provide a temporary energy store we can fall back on when renewable supply is low or demand is higher than usual. – Secondly, hydrogen can help decarbonize areas where electrification alone is not enough. Good examples are domestic heating and heavy industrial processes such as steel and cement production, which are energy intensive and therefore carbon intensive.

  • The effects of ozone layer depletion
    Just like humans wearing clothes to keep out the cold, the Earth has a layer that protects life on it from the sun's damaging ultraviolet rays. This is the ozone layer, which lies in the Earth's stratosphere. The ozone layer is very important to the Earth! Without it, people would be susceptible to various skin diseases and have an underdeveloped immune system. The ozone layer is said to have a high concentration of this gas. This is true, because this gives it a natural absorption capacity of almost 99%. destructive ultraviolet radiation. It protects us and life on Earth, and we often don't even realize it! However, the ozone layer is in fact under threat. This gas, it is not known exactly since when, because there are different theories on this subject, is diluting in the polar regions, which has been called by scientists the ozone hole, and this causes its cover to decrease. Comparing it to human clothing, it is as if we took off our warm outer clothing during a harsh winter. What is ozone depletion? The gradual thinning of the ozone layer in the upper atmosphere is called ozone depletion.

  • Topic of the issue: Employment of minors, taking into account prohibited work and inspection possibilities of National Labor Inspectorate inspectors
    The issue of employing minors, especially in the context of occupational health and safety, is regularly monitored by inspectors of the National Labor Inspectorate. It is no different in 2023 - which is clear from the office's operating program for the current year. In the context of PIP's control possibilities, it is worth bearing in mind that on September 30, 2023, a new regulation of the Council of Ministers of June 19, 2023 on the list of works prohibited for minors and the conditions of their employment in some of these works enters into force. Its use in practice will certainly be monitored by inspectors - both at the end of the year and in subsequent years.

  • Health and safety at screen monitors - the new regulation is getting closer
    The regulation on health and safety conditions at workstations equipped with screen monitors has not been changed for over 20 years. During this time, there has been a huge technological progress, which the Ministry of Labor apparently did not notice. However, that has changed. Finally, a draft regulation appeared, which greatly simplifies the existing solutions. It also allows the employer some freedom in the organization of workstations equipped with screen monitors. What will change exactly?
