The research provides insight into the factors that determine absenteeism in different types of organizations, in order to facilitate the adjustment of employees and organizations in the transition process from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0. The aim of the study is to predict the absenteeism of employees in the context of job characteristics and mental health. Additionally, the research investigated the effect of size, ownership, and sector of the companies on absenteeism, job characteristics, and mental health. The sample included responses from 502 employees of different sociodemographic characteristics that work in various types of organizations, performing white-collar and blue-collar jobs. A short mental health questionnaire—Mental Health Inventory, MHI-5—was used in order to measure mental health. The Job Characteristics Questionnaire was used to measure the employees’ perceptions of their job characteristics—job variety, autonomy, feedback, dealing with others, task identity, and friendship. The absenteeism is operationalized with the question: “During the past 12 months, how many days were you absent from work for any reason?”. The findings suggest that mental health and job characteristics significantly reduce absenteeism among different sectors. The result showed that the size, ownership, and sector of the organization significantly affect the absenteeism, job characteristics, and the mental health of the employees. The results support the premises of Industry 5.0 and offer a new human-centric approach to absenteeism through the promotion of mental health through long-term organizational strategies and a more inclusive approach to employees’ preferences in relation to job characteristics. The study offers a new, double-sided model of absenteeism, determining causal factors from the perspective of personal and organizational factors.

The necessity to measure the effectiveness of the management of protected areas has been widely recognized. This paper aims to show a realistic state of affairs in protected area management in the Republic of Serbia on the basis of the results of managers' monitoring and their obligations stipulated by law. It will also answer questions on which form of management is optimal, by means of a proposed assessment model. The research has been performed on a sample of 30 sensu stricto protected areas, managed by 21 different managers. For the purpose of ranking and comparing the degree of protected area management effectiveness, the use of a normalized aggregate function (scoring) has been introduced. Results show that about half of the analyzed protected areas have no adequate management in terms of legally prescribed management criteria, as well as that management effectiveness is related to several external factors. The authors conclude that meeting all criteria stipulated by law, and the existence of professional staff represent fundamental factors for the effective management of protected areas.

Summary

SAŽETAK: Sudsko besedništvo je najstarija i najznačajnija besednička vrsta. Međutim, u današnjem obrazovnom sistemu Republike Srbije, sudsko besedništvo ne samo da se ne proučava, nego se studentima pravnih fakulteta ne omogućavaju ni najosnovnija saznanja o ovoj veštini, koja je u anglosaksonskom pravnom sistemu uzdignuta na nivo nauke. Ta praksa, nažalost traje već nekoliko decenija. Takođe, ako se ima na umu da međunarodni sudovi (u kojima se pokušavaju pomiriti evropsko-kontinentalna i anglosaksonska procesna pravila) dobijaju sve više na značaju, (pogotovo u svetlu evropskih integrativnih procesa), postaje jasno da je neophodno izvršiti reafirmaciju sudskog besedništva kao veštine i kao nauke kroz obrazovni sistem. Najreprezentativniji oblik sudskog besedništva je završna reč. Ovaj rad upravo želi da prikaže šta jeste zakonom dodeljena uloga završne reči u pravnom sistemu Republike Srbije, ali u isto vreme i da ukaže da, ukoliko se ona iznese po retoričkim pravilima, njen značaj može biti presudan u procesu donošenja presude. Ovu činjenicu poznavali su najveći advokati, tužioci i sudije i na njoj su gradili svoje karijere, jer su upravo brilijantne sudske besede bile ono što ih je odvajalo od proseka.Ključne reči: završna reč, Zakon o krivičnom postupku, optužni akt, prezumpcija nevinosti, uloga završne reči, značaj završne reči, besedništvo -veština praktične primene retoričkih pravila
