System Safety: Human - Technical Facility - Environment

 The conference System Safety: Human - Technical Facility – Environment CzOTO is an international conference organized and hosted annually by the Quality and Production Managers Association, in Poland, usually in December. The main partner is Czestochowa University of Technology, Faculty of Management, Department of Production Engineering and Safety. The conference is held under the patronage of Prof. Norbert Sczygiol, Rector of Czestochowa University of Technology.  This international event gathered a large group of people interested in system safety and was an excellent forum for exchanging knowledge and experiences between scientists and practitioners. All information about the Conference CzOTO are available on: https://conf.qpij.pl/czoto/  The conference CzOTO and publications deals with issues related to work safety. Both in the area of occupational health and safety, organization of the workplace (technical aspects) and the environment (environmental factors in working conditions). The publications presented combine legal requirements in the field of work safety with the technical solutions that are designed to meet the minimum requirements. They present and analyze the requirements of technological processes carried out at workplaces. Sociological issues are also carried out in the analyzes, in the scope of training and creating a safety culture within production enterprises.  Subject areas, suitable for publication, include the following fields:  Health and safety management systems  Technological safety  The role of the human factor in occupational health and safety management systems  Safety of technical facilities operation (safety engineering)  Environmental safety management  Safety management of products and services  Management of occupational risk  Economical aspects of occupational health and safety  Legal aspects of health and safety at work  Safety in material engineering  Safety in civil engineering  Product quality and user safety  Safety logistics  Safety in innovation and their transfer  Knowledge and information management   A new topic that the conference participants drew attention to is safety in the industrial transformation 4.0 not only in the aspect of digital / information safety but also work safety in the relation: human - information - machine / system. Very important question posed during the conference: is industry 4.0 optimizing work safety?  No clear answer was obtained. The conclusion, summarizing the conference, is that: Industry 4.0 intends to redefine the workspace so that it can respond almost immediately to changing customer requirements. It brings new challenges and introduces new risks. Sudden re-configuration of production areas, including very fast tool changes and physical movement of equipment, can pose a range of challenges for work safety, while a very large number of configurations that can be implemented to meet potential customer requirements may require the implementation of risk assessment separately for each of them. The above statement will be the starting point for the next edition of the conference.
