Projects are a tool that enables enterprises to implement innovation and development activities and achieve the goals in the set time, costs and required quality but they also bring risks that need to be adequately identified, analyzed and assessed. Important tools that can be used in project management in the process of risk identification are expert estimates. However, little attention is paid to determining the accuracy of expert estimates. To verify the accuracy of expert estimates, an analysis of all completed projects for a certain period of enterprise that implemented them was performed. The purpose of the study was to determine the accuracy of expert estimates in the enterprise implementing projects. This was ascertained by analyzing all available completed projects and by Barnard’s test at the significance level of α = 0.05. The Phi coefficient of association was used to determine its extent. In the paper, we pointed out how inappropriate expert estimates affect the completion of the project within the specified period.

Today’s modern society offers many new opportunities, but also many risks. Even modernization of companies cannot completely eliminate these dangers. In the smart industry, despite significant technological progress, it is necessary to work with various raw materials, including hazardous substances. It is these raw materials that will continue to pose risks in the future for industrial accidents, which cannot be ruled out. The possible release of hazardous substances can potentially have a negative impact on the environment and safety of the population. In order to deal with certain emergencies, it is necessary to allocate a large amount of funds and resources to them. The paper focuses on risk prevention in industry and the use of modern and new approaches. Specifically, it focuses on the implementation of the prevention of leakage of hazardous substances in the gaseous state from industrial facilities. The aim of the paper is to present a new approach to the prevention of leakage of hazardous substances, which provides more realistic calculations for modeling leaks and thus helps to reduce the cost of prevention. However, security in crisis management is not diminished. ALOHA CAMEO software was used for leak modeling, which the authors commonly use in practical applications and modeling in industrial enterprises in the performance of duties in the field of civil protection and crisis management. ALOHA software is used for such modeling, serving as a support tool for modeling for all crisis managers in Industry 4.0. This paper deals with the modeling of dispersion of hazardous substances with specific properties escaping from technological equipment located inside a building. This concerns the inability of the current dispersion model software to prevent the spread of the next leak inside the building containing the substance. A solution is needed to fix this problem. This issue is well illustrated by a specific example at the end of this article. The mentioned improvement of tools for simulation of industrial accidents influences the possibilities of development also in Industry 4.0. It enables more effective preparation for the management of possible accidents with regard to the appropriate spending of funds for prevention and subsequent response.

The essence of the article is based on the collected and processed data from the survey to analyze, assess and evaluate the impact of the factor, which is the number of employees, on the market and financial risks, identified by managers of the SMEs in the Zilina region of Slovakia. The analysis of market and financial risks is carried out through the analysis of the selected statistical characteristics, using the point and interval estimates and methods of mathematical statistics. Interval estimation enables to determine not only the best estimate, but the entire interval with a certain probability of possible estimates of the mean value of the market and financial risks of a basic file, since the managers of an enterprise are more interested in intervals than in a point value. Results of the survey showed that the number of employees has an impact on the mean value of the market and financial risks of the SMEs in the Zilina region and therefore it is not possible to underestimate it.

The issues of critical infrastructure protection are becoming one of increasing concern to national governments, infrastructure managers and local authorities. The paper is dealing with the effects of crisis situations in critical transport infrastructure. It highlights the importance of prevention and early identification of risk factors that could have an adverse effect on a system or process. It presents the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis as one of the most effective methods of risk analysis which is useful for the needs of increasing security of critical transport infrastructure.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are very sensitive to changes in the business environment which after a certain time are always reflected into quantitative characteristics of this sector. In 2013, we accomplished a statistical survey on current trends in the field of business risks for SMEs in selected regions of the Czech Republic and Slovakia. In this article we want to analyze the effects of selected risks of the survey with respect to the length of the small and medium-sized business enterprises in the Zilina region. SMEs should be aware of their risks, mainly due to their importance in the economic system of the Slovak Republic, which mostly lies in their inconsiderable share to create job positions in the region.

The paper is aimed to provide key input for an analysis forming part of industrial process risk assessment and management in a selected enterprise. The analysis is a feature of the Complex model for industrial process risk assessment and management developed in the APVV 0043-10 project. As part of the evaluation of model application, a risk assessment is undertaken in selected enterprises. This risk assessment also involves modelling of a hazardous substance (ammonia water) spillage. To be able to predict the amount of ammonia released and its distribution in time, the evaporation rate must be known. This paper describes laboratory-scale experimental determination of the evaporation rate of ammonia from ammonia water provided by the enterprise for which the risk assessment is being undertaken. The results of the experiment show the dependence of the evaporation rate on the ambient temperature and solution concentration and may be applied directly in a toxic cloud movement model.
