Economic Effect of the Coronavirus on the Companies Involved in Car and Automotive Parts Trading, and Manufacture of Tires of Hungary, Including Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County, in Respect of 2020
1-12Megtekintések száma:384In Hungary the wake of the first wave of the Covid-19 epidemic (March 2020), caused a decline in demand for goods and services in most sectors. There were sectors (accommodation services, art, recreation, etc.), which were economically severely burdened by the imposition of restrictive measures, and there were some (financial services, communication), which experienced the change positively. In our research, our goal was to assess the changes caused by the Covid-19 epidemic in the property, financial and profitability situation of the companies involved in car and automotive parts trading, and tire manufacturing, in Hungary, and within the country, in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county. We established three hypotheses: (1) As a result of the spread of coronavirus epidemic, in Hungary and in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county as well, the profitability of companies of NAICS codes 441 (car and automotive parts trading) and 4231 (wholesale of road vehicles and parts), decreased. (2) The outbreak of the epidemic had a negative impact on the liquidity of companies established in Hungary, including Szabolcs- Szatmár-Bereg county. (3) As a result of the Covid-19 epidemic, the resource structure of Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county companies, analysed in the framework of research work, transformed. To prove or disprove these, secondary research was used. Finally, we put forward conclusions and proposals for the management of the companies active in this industry.

Case Study of Unilever's Zero-Emission Target Realization
16-36Megtekintések száma:603This paper presents a detailed case study of Unilever’s strategy and progress toward achieving zero carbon emissions, focusing on Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. The study analyzes a 10-year time series of both financial and non-financial data to assess the relationship between sustainability indicators, such as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, total and renewable energy use, and the company’s operating profit. Forecasting techniques were applied to project future emission levels based on historical data, while correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationships between key variables. The results show a strong positive correlation between total energy use and CO₂ emissions, highlighting the importance of energy efficiency in emission reduction efforts. However, no significant correlation was found between operating profit and CO₂ emissions or energy use, suggesting that sustainability initiatives have not yet had a measurable direct impact on profitability. Despite this, Unilever has demonstrated substantial progress toward its climate targets, including a 91% reduction in CO₂ emissions per ton of production (compared to a 2008 baseline) and the transition to 100% renewable electricity in many of its facilities. The study concludes that while sustainability measures may not immediately influence profit margins, they are essential for long-term competitiveness and corporate responsibility. This case provides valuable insights for firms aiming to integrate environmental performance into strategic decision-making.

Sustainability in Urban Waste Management: The Efficiency of Electric Waste Transport Vehicles
1-18.Megtekintések száma:207This study evaluates the long-term economic feasibility of electric waste collection vehicles (EVs) as a sustainable alternative to diesel-powered counterparts in urban municipal services. Using real operational data from a Hungarian waste management company, we developed a total cost of ownership (TCO) model spanning 10 years, which incorporates investment costs, energy consumption, maintenance, depreciation, and battery replacement. Our analysis reveals that although EVs require a significantly higher upfront investment (€350,000 vs. €183,200), their lower operational and maintenance costs result in a break-even point around year 8. When accounting for a €50,000 battery replacement in year 6, the total 10-year cost of the EV remains lower (€431,769 vs. €450,914) than the diesel vehicle, resulting in a net saving of €19,145. The study emphasizes the significance of local energy prices and service structures in assessing fleet electrification. While the findings are based on Hungarian data, the proposed methodology can be adapted internationally to support data-driven decision-making in sustainable waste logistics.

Fogászati implantátumok felületkezelési eljárásainak összehasonlító vizsgálata
12-32Megtekintések száma:237Napjainkban a leggyakrabban implantátum a fogászatban jelenik meg, ez lehet a fog egy részének, pl.: korona vagy a teljes fog pótlása. Manapság számos gyártó kínál a legkülönfélébb anyagokból és kialakítással készült implantátumokat. Ezeknek a pótlásoknak szigorú előírásoknak kell megfelelniük, az egyik legszigorúbb követelmény a felületi érdességre vonatkozik. Mivel a megfelelő csont- implantátum kapcsolat csak megfelelő felületi érdesség esetén következik be, így többféle módszerrel érik el a megfelelő értéket. Több kutatócsoport által elvégzett kísérletek eredményeit áttekintve azt a következtetést vontuk le, hogy a felületi érdesség, az implantátum rögzítő csavarjának alakja, menetének alakja és a menetemelkedés a kívánt érdesség eléréséhez alkalmazott felület módosító kezelés együttesen határozza meg a beépülés sikerét. Az osseointegrációhoz szükséges átlagos felületi érdesség 1-100 µm közötti érték esetén tekinthető optimálisnak. A kereskedelmi forgalomban kapható fogászati protézisek felületi érdessége a legtöbb esetben Ra 1-2 µm, azonban ez a különböző szemcsefúvási, savas maratási és polírozási eljárásokkal módosítható a felhasználási területekhez igazítva. Az érdesség csökkentésének egyik elterjedt technológiája a savas maratás, amely a fogászati pótlások anyagai (többnyire titán ötvözetek) esetén a legnagyobb mértékben képes csökkenteni a felületi érdességet, ezáltal a kívánt tartományba kerül az érdesség. A savas maratás eredményét befolyásolja a sav koncentrációja, a savas fürdő hőmérséklete és a savban eltöltött idő. Fontos a felület kezeléshez használt sav, amely a leggyakrabban a kénsav, sósav, illetve hidrogén-fluorid (HF), valamint ezek kombinációi. A tanulmányból kiderül, hogy optimális eredményt a HF esetén lehet elérni. A pótlások manapság nagyrészt additív gyártással készülnek, így biztosítható a személyre szabott pótlás, illetve a méretpontosság miatt kisebb az utómunkára fordított idő és költség, vagyis a felületkezeléssel a kívánt felületi érdesség és méret egyszerre biztosítható. Ezáltal egyre újabb anyagokból készült protézisek kerülnek klinikai alkalmazásba, így a felületkezelésnek minden anyag esetében alkalmazhatónak kell lennie. Erre optimális megoldás a szemcseszórás és savasmaratás kombinációja. Ezen technológiával a felületi érdesség minden anyag esetén az optimális 1-100 µm közötti értéket éri el, esetenként 1-2 µm, de polírozással ez tovább csökkenthető 1 µm alá. A tanulmány a felületi érdesség szerepét vizsgálja, a felületi érdességet csak egy bizonyos értékig érdemes csökkenteni, ez hozzávetőlegesen 0,5 µm, mivel a sima felület nem, vagy csak korlátozottan alkalmas az osseointegráció kialakulására.

The Role Of Leader In Work Addiction
85-97Megtekintések száma:346Over-attachment to work is an increasingly common phenomenon in the lives of people in organisations, and can also be a condition of work addiction. Whoever becomes involved in an organisation, be it a subordinate or even a manager, work addiction has a number of negative consequences at both individual and organisational level. Without being exhaustive, work addiction can have an impact on organisational performance, organisational effectiveness, workplace conflict, career prospects, health maintenance. In this paper, we aim to highlight the most relevant publications from the last five years to report on the impact in an organisation when work addiction arises among subordinates or managers, and how different leadership styles are associated with work addiction among organisational members. The publications were retrieved from Google Scholar and Scopus, and the results of 19 articles are presented in this paper after a review of 263 papers retrieved. The results show that transformational, servant and ethical leadership styles have ambiguous effects on work addiction, unlike laissez-faire or abusive leadership styles, the former enhancing and the latter reducing the incidence of work addiction in an organisation. Work addiction of managers also has a dual effect: on the one hand, it can enhance creativity, but it can also increase turnover among subordinates. Social support from the manager can be an antidote to subordinates' work addiction, but this effect may be modified by the quantity and quality of interaction between manager and subordinate, the sense of meaningfulness of the work, or even the organisational culture. Overall, the manager, as a key actor, can have an impact on work addiction in the organisation, but there is not always a consistent position in the research on the cases and the way in which this is done, which calls for further research in the future.

Advancing Sustainable Waste Management through National Recycling Rate under SDG 12.5.1
61-72Megtekintések száma:194Solid waste management remains a pressing environmental challenge in both developed and developing nations. Recycling has been promoted globally as a key pathway to sustainability, yet recycling rates often provide only a partial picture of performance. In many contexts, challenges such as poorly regulated recycling policies, informal sector dominance, and practices that prioritize profit over environmental sustainability limit progress towards Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12.5.1, which tracks the national recycling rate. This study investigates the extent to which recycling rates reflect sustainable waste management and identifies the underlying factors that influence their effectiveness. The major objective of this study is to evaluate recycling rates as an indicator of sustainable waste management. This is further specified by: (i) examining recycling practices in selected countries (Germany, South Korea, USA, Brazil, and India), (ii) identifying key drivers and barriers that influence recycling performance, and (iii) assessing the implications of recycling rates for sustainable waste management systems. The study employed a mixed-methods approach, combining secondary data analysis, comparative country assessment, and policy review. Results show that recycling rates are useful but insufficient as a stand-alone measure of sustainability, since they are influenced by broader elements such as policy enforcement, economic incentives, public participation, and market structures. The findings highlight that Nigeria’s recycling rate remains significantly low compared to leading economies, underscoring the need for integrated waste management reforms. This research contributes to environmental management discourse by demonstrating that while recycling rates provide a benchmark for SDG 12.5.1 monitoring, they must be interpreted alongside contextual drivers to ensure meaningful progress towards sustainable waste management.

An Exploratory Study on the Level of Trust Among Hungarian Food Manufacturer Companies
277-288Megtekintések száma:347The intensification of globalized economic competition is playing an increasingly important role in the lives of companies to determine their true position among their competitors. Food companies are of paramount importance because of their role and weight in the national economy. In Hungary, the food industry plays an important social and economic role and is a world leader in terms of employment and value added. Currently, there are nearly 1100 active food companies in Hungary, so it is worth examining the peculiarities of the role of trust between companies.
There are often contradictory statements in the literature about the effects of Industry 4.0 technologies and the trust placed in IT tools. Therefore, it is a relevant research question to examine whether the characteristics of the role of trust - e.g. staff, suppliers, IT tools and technologies, etc. as confidence levels can have a direct positive impact on the efficiency, profits, liquidity, etc. of the companies in question. development.
During the research, I analyzed the level of trust between the food trading companies, in which I discuss the trust within the industry within the company. My aim is to further enrich my previous research knowledge in this field.

Klímasemleges energiatermelés – Kilátások Magyarországon 2024-ben
53-60Megtekintések száma:272Bolygónk klímájának megóvása érdekében fontos, hogy jelentősen csökkenjen az emberiség szén-dioxid-kibocsátása. Az energiaszektor az egyik legszennyezőbb iparág, viszont az elmúlt 20 évben a megújuló energiaforrások gyorsan növekvő ütemben való terjedése jelentősen hozzájárulhat a szén-dioxid-kibocsátás csökkenéséhez. A tanulmányban megvizsgálásra került, hogy Magyarországon milyen energiaforrások felhasználásával állítanak elő villamosenergiát, továbbá hogyan alakult az elmúlt években a megújuló energia aránya a szennyezőbb energiatermelési módokhoz képest. Erős negatív exponenciális kapcsolatot volt feltárható a megújuló energia részarány és az energia szektor szén-dioxid-kibocsátása között, ami alapján az energiaszektor szén-dioxid-kibocsátása jelentős mértékben csökkenthető a megújuló részarány növelésével. Előrejelzésre került a megújuló részarányra a múltbeli adatok és a Nemzeti Energia- és Klímaterv 2023-as felülvizsgált állapota alapján, valamint lineáris előrejelzés készült az energia szektor kibocsátására nézve. Az adatsorok között erős exponenciális kapcsolat áll fent. A tanulmányban vizsgált mindkét modell erős magyarázó erővel bírt, viszont egyik modell sem támasztja alá a klímasemleges energiatermelés lehetőségét 2030-ra.

A webáruházak hasznossága a vidékfejlesztés során
242-251Megtekintések száma:310A Magyarországon az e-commerce jelentősége megkérdőjelezhetetlen. A lakosság 66%-a rendszeres internethasználó (I3). Minden negyedik ember napi szinten használja azt. Az online értékesítés 2010-ben 137 milliárd forintról 2016-ban már 427 milliárd forintra növekedett, miközben az offline értékesítés ezt a növekedést megközelíteni sem tudta (I1). Kétséget kizáróan az on-line tér egy nagyon értékes piaccá vált. A vásárlások szempontjából igen értékes korosztály naponta körülbelül 6 órát tölt on-line, ebből 3 órát aktívan használja is azt (I2). Az informálódás és a kapcsolattartás legjelentősebb forrása szintén az internet, hiszen a felmérések szerint 41 %-ban ezt a módot használják. Hazánkban az internet hozzáférhetősége lényegében független a földrajzi helytől, köszönhetően a Digitális Megújulás Cselekvési Tervnek, melynek egyik fő fejezete a „Fejlett és biztonságos infrastruktúra mindenkinek”.(Botos 2013). Magyarország vidéki területein nagyon sok kedvezőtlen folyamatot láthatunk. Ezek közül is kiemelkedő az elvándorlás, a lokális gazdasági élet kiürülése. Ezen folyamatok megállítására létrehozták a “Nemzeti vidékstratégiát” (2012-2020). Legfontosabb területei a foglalkoztatás növekedése, a kiegyensúlyozott és sokszínű mező- és erdőgazdálkodás, termelési szerkezet, a helyi élelmiszertermelés és élelmiszerpiacok helyreállítása, a helyi energiatermelés, a vidék helyi közösségeinek megerősödése, a népesedési mutatók javulása és a természeti rendszerek, a biológiai sokféleség megőrzése. A vidéki gazdaságok becsatornázása az on-line piactérbe, kapcsolódásuk különböző DBE-kbe nem csak vertikálisan, hanem horizontálisan is, a túlélésük és fejlődésük egyik záloga lehet. A vidéki on-line piactéren működő vállalkozások helyzete nagyon speciális. Egyrészt működtetésük nagyon sok aspektusában kedvezőbb, viszont bizonyos esetekben olyan hátrányokkal rendelkeznek, amelyek a létüket alapvetően veszélyeztetik. A cikk célja, hogy a megismerjük ezt a környezetet, feltérképezzük az előnyöket és a hátrányokat. Ehhez felhasználunk vidéki településen működtetett on-line piactéren működő vállalkozásokkal elvégzett mélyinterjúk eredményeit.

A fogyasztók értékrendjének és jövedelmi helyzetének az átalakulása a nemzetgazdaság valamennyi ágazatában érezteti hatását. Felmerül a kérdés: a hanyatló félben lévő vállalatok vajon mikorra lesznek képesek talpra állni, a járvány előtti gazdálkodásukra jellemző nyereséget képesek lesznek-e elérni, és ha igen, akkor mikor?
