Legal status of young scientists in the Russian Federation

The subject. The article presents a comprehensive analysis of the legal status of young scientists in the Russian Federation, taking into account the needs of the Russian scientific society for the reproduction of the scientific knowledge.The purpose of the research is to confirm or to reject the hypothesis of the necessity of the specific legal status of the young scientists in Russian academic law.Methodology. The formal legal method, the method of comparative legal analysis and method of systemic approach were used in the article.The main results. The research proves that the modern Russian academic community is in need of the young scientists due to the aging of the community. According to statistics, the lack of social guarantees and the low prestige of the academic profession result in a low percentage of PhD graduates in the recent years. The study concludes that there is no systematic approach to the definition of the status of a young scientist in the current Russian law. Although attempts to formalize the legal status of the young scientists have been made, they have so far not led to significant results. The authors conclude that the current legislation governing the legal status of young scientists should be harmonised. Analysis of the current legislation on the legal status of young scientists also reveals a number of complex issues. Social guarantees for young scientists, presented in the form of social housing, affect only a small proportion of the scientific community, while there are no laws granting preferential loans for young scientific workers. The participation of young scientists in grant support competitions is complicated due to the lack of a unified approach. Specific problems are faced by female scientists. A partial solution to the problem of the low prestige of the profession for both scientific and pedagogic workers, according to the authors of the article, lies in the foundation of a unified federal system of guarantied wages for such workers.Conclusions. Researchers conclude that a consistent approach to the legal status of young scientists and social guarantees, according to such status, can ensure the stable growth of young people in the sphere of scientific activity. In order to enhance the prestige of the profession of scientist among young people and to prevent the lack of scientific and pedagogical workers, researchers consider it necessary to take a number of measures, such as legal enshrinement of the status of a young scientists, development of a system of social guarantees, search for a new ways to measure the scientific activity of employees, formation of a stable system of postgraduate studies and creation of comfortable working conditions for young scientists.

Health and productivity management initiatives to promote worker health and improve the workplace environment at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

Since the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant (FDNPP) accident in 2011, measures have been taken to address occupational health risks, such as heat illness and infectious diseases, and ensure fitness for duty with the Tokyo Electric Power Company and its contractors. However, with the decommissioning operations set to span several decades and an aging workforce, there arose a need for proactive occupational health strategies that not only addressed these risks but also promoted employee health and created a comfortable work environment. With the Japanese government's promotion of health and productivity management (HPM) for corporations, an HPM-based initiative was launched at the FDNPP in 2019. We designed an HPM questionnaire tailored to the unique conditions at the FDNPP for contractors in 2019. Subsequently, we adjusted the questionnaire annually in light of evolving societal contexts and insights derived from contractors' feedback. This initiative also involved the annual recognition of outstanding contractors. These efforts have led to a steady increase in the number of contractors participating in the HPM survey, with respondents' scores continually improving. We also emphasized dissemination of HPM practices from contractors to their subcontractors due to the complex subcontracting structure at FDNPP, and our results showed that more contractors have been extending these efforts to their subcontractors. Our findings suggest that individual contractors are steadily enhancing their HPM efforts. We are committed to continually offering support to advance HPM throughout the FDNPP.

Ergonomic Evaluation of Static, Revolving, and Wooden Chairs using Cornell’s Seating Evaluation v21 in Professionals with Prolonged Sitting: A Cross-sectional Study

Introduction: In contemporary workplaces, individuals using sedentary workstations often remain seated for approximately two-thirds of their workday, with extended periods of sitting lasting at least 30 minutes uninterrupted. The widespread use of various types of chairs in professional settings and their significant impact on individual well-being necessitate this ergonomic study. Given that professionals spend a considerable portion of their day seated, it is imperative to understand the ergonomic characteristics of different chair types to promote a comfortable and supportive work environment. This study focuses on evaluating static, revolving, and wooden chairs to identify their strengths and weaknesses. Aim: To compare the ergonomic features of static, revolving, and wooden chairs among in professionals with prolonged sitting using Cornell’s Ergonomic Scale. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among professionals at a corporate company in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, from July 2021 to September 2022. Participants, regardless of gender, who had been using a laptop or desktop for at least four hours a day for a year were included. The study assessed three types of chairs: static, revolving, and wooden. The survey consisted of two sections: demographic and job-related information, and the Cornell Ergonomic Seating Evaluation v21 scale, which measured chair adjustment, seating comfort, ease of use, body support, and an overall ergonomic score. Data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25.0, employing one-way ANOVA. Result: A total of 217 participants were surveyed, including 182 males and 35 females. The overall Ergonomic Discomfort Score (EDS%) was 32.49±2.71% for static chairs, 66.3±3.56% for revolving chairs, and 25.26±3.27% for wooden chairs (p-value <0.001). Conclusion: The application of practical ergonomic principles with tools such as the Cornell scale can effectively minimise employee discomfort and enhance both work capacity and job satisfaction.

Analytical assessment of the machinery use efficiency in the technology of crop products production

The crop growing industry focuses, first of all, on highly productive and efficient machinery that meets all modern requirements of agricultural production. This machinery can significantly increase the productivity of agricultural labor and create comfortable working conditions. Digital transformation and digitalization of crop production requires introducing highly intelligent machinery and technologies for crop cultivation into the agro-industrial complex, which, in turn, necessitates requirements for the growth of intellectual abilities of agricultural workers. The current prices for modern machinery and technologies are very high; for many enterprises it is not possible to purchase them, therefore the relevance of state support from federal sources is very necessary. There is a negative trend in the numerical reduction of machinery in the region under study, as a result of which there is an increase in the specific load per unit of machinery, and that leads to accelerated wear. As a result, production volumes in crop growing are being reduced. Calculations show that the degree of exploitation of the combine harvester fleet in the region is slightly higher than that of the tractor fleet, so these trends should be taken into account in the process of planning the volume of investments for their acquisition.
