Abstract Corporate culture is made by the company´s employees. However, their age composition is different and is members of different generations that interact. Every generation brings with it something new, not only positive but also negative. Therefore, each generation should work together to eliminate the negative aspects and highlight the benefits of each generation and exploit them to their advantage. Each of the generations influences the corporate culture in different ways. The aim of the paper is to point out the results of research, which was realized at Faculty of Materials Science and Technology in Trnava and focused on individual generations of employees. We draw attention especially to the Generation Z, its impact on corporate culture and the new “wind” that it brings. This paper was written on the basis of research results of VEGA project No.1/0348/17 “The impact of the coexistence of different generations of employees on the sustainable performance of organisations”.

Abstract The implementation of new trends into industrial practice as well as the influence of various external and internal factors affects the operation of industrial enterprises and their performance. Industrial enterprises that have developed a sustainable human resource management strategy are able to resist negative impacts. A sustainable law strategy defines the range of options for the implementation of a sustainable human resources management strategy. A sustainable law strategy, as a base of business strategy is affecting other strategies in industrial enterprises and also it provides a framework for business sustainability as part of an ecosystem in sustainable corporate social responsibility strategy. The importance of the consistency of mentioned strategies is contained in the presented paper. Consistency of strategies ensures fair treatment of employees as a key internal factor in business success. It is important that employers treat their employees fairly, especially in the case of negative measures. The main aim of the paper is to present results of the research focused on identified discrimination and release of employees in industrial enterprises. The research sample consisted of n = 692 respondents composed of industrial enterprises employees. Among the significant results, the authors of the paper advise the finding, that a significant part of the respondents did not encounter age discrimination. The conclusion contains recommendations for the development of sustainable law strategy regarding to findings related to the release of employees and age discrimination.

Abstract The basic objective of the paper is to show that seniors (even in the age 70+) need not be treated just as a burden or as an object of social care and health care (which is, of course, important as well), but that they can be an important production factor in the traditional meaning of the concept in economic theory and can form a valuable component of an intellectual capital in a knowledge-based society. Objective reason of the growing interest in these issues is the aging of population during the last decades (especially in developed countries) and a greater availability of highly skilled seniors, that although meet the requirements to go retired, prefer to work longer and seek in the work (similarly as during their previous active years) a way of selfactualization and a source of vital energy. Keeping employed these seniors can be also economically effective for organizations.

Abstract The strategic goal of businesses is to secure a long-term competitive advantage, to differentiate themselves from other businesses and to succeed in the market. Corporate culture is what distinguishes an organization from others and cannot be easily imitated. Culture issues, the need for interaction and understanding are becoming an important part of business behaviour between employees and individual groups. In the paper we present a part of the results of the research carried out within the frame of VEGA project No. 1/0348/17 „The impact of the coexistence of different generations of employees on the sustainable performance of organisations”. The aim of the project was to explore the potential of positive interaction between individual generations of employees and its use to achieve sustainable performance of organizations in the conditions of multigenerational communities. We focus on corporate culture and selected factors that influence its manifestations and formation. In the research we also found out how important the selected factors are and how individual generational groups of employees in industrial enterprises in Slovakia perceive them. The results of the research confirmed the differences in employee expectations and their fulfilment.

Abstract The paper focuses on some current differences in the current two-generation approaches in the labour market to employment, working conditions and people management. The findings are based on repeated surveys since 2009 focused on the opinions of full-time and part-time students and graduates of some economic and managerial fields of three universities in the Czech Republic and the opinions of selected employees of several companies. The results show that some approaches to work and working conditions differ significantly by age of respondents.

Abstract With incoming Industry 4.0 implementation, RFID technology is becoming one of the main part for (not only) automotive industry, as a source to identify any inconsistencies or failures in automated processes. Its implementation in the automated workplaces is conditioned by the real-time data collection depending on workflows and increasing demands for processing, and publishing of these data. As such, RFID technology enables the real-time data integration from objects as well as from people or inventory management, asset management and monitoring, alarm collection and evaluation, predictive maintenance, and overall critical digital communications.

Abstract The contribution deals with measurement of acoustic absorption coefficient for different single or double-layer materials: cork, two layers of polyethylene, polyethylene and felt. The measurement was performed on an impedance tube of our own construction, using the two-microphone method transfer function (ISO 10534-2: 1998) and the PULSE measuring system. Values of the acoustic absorption coefficient for the frequencies from 100 Hz to 1600 Hz were determined experimentally. Subsequently, those values were processed graphically.

Abstract The paper presents the possibility of using machine vision in the industrial area. The case study is oriented to indirect image processing in a robotic cell using a Matlab tool. Theoretical part of the contribution is devoted to the comparative analysis of various methods of the object detection and recognition. Analysis of the functionality, speed, performance and reliability of selected methods in the object detection and recognition area is processed. In the practical part, a method of implementing an indirect machine vision is designed to control the handling of objects detected and recognized on the basis of an operator requirement. Based on the analysis of the sample robotic workplace and the identified limitations, possibility of using the indirect computer vision is suggested. In such a case, the image of the workspace scene is saved on the storage and then processed by an external element. The processing result is further distributed in a defined form by a selected channel to the control component of the production cell.
