The traffic noise influence on the health of the exposed population
DIVÁCKÝ, Jan
This presented diploma thesis deals with evaluation of the traffic noise influence on the health of the exposed population. The objectives of this thesis are based on the results of Environmental Health System in the Czech Republic (Subsystem III), which provides the long-term monitoring of the noise in the municipal environment of the chosen agglomerations. A part of the noisy location monitoring is also the questionnaire survey confirming hypothesis n.1: "At the traffic noise perceiving, there is an important psychosocial bound, which often stands in opposition to the results of the noise measurements". Furthermore, the thesis describes the results of the indicative measurement of the chosen noisy localities in comparison with same locality measurements in the technical accuracy class. The indicative gauge tests were made on the traffic-busy roads in Jihlava city. The measurement has proved the link between the intensity of the traffic flow and indicatively determined noise levels and practical applicability for the local planning or local controlling incentives solution. The results of the indicative measurements point out to breaking of the equivalent night noise levels for sleep disturbance in three chosen localities. Breaking of the equivalent day noise levels has a nature of the noise annoyance. The measured road-traffic-caused night and day noise levels may be compared to the recommendations for the risks of increased incidence of selected civilization diseases published by the World Health Organisation.

Analysis of the Effect of Unemployment on Sick leave
Kuhnová, Hana ; Houdek, Petr (advisor) ; Potužák, Pavel (referee)
The aim of this work was to evaluate the impact of unemployment and other variables on sick leave in the Czech Republik. For this purpose I used panel data from all regions of the CR between 2001-2009. Using several models, I determined that the economic situation the state has greater influence on absenteeism than the health of the population. It was demonstrate that the inability to work in the CR is procyclical character. If unemployment rises by 1 % the number of cases of sick leave decreases by 1,13 per 100 sickness insured workers. Among other variables representing the economic situation have the highest influence legislative changes leading to a tightening of the payment of sickness benefits and wage compensation and the average gross wage. The compensation is higher and the difference in income is lower, the greater the motivation of patients to stay at home. In the research I was limited to the length of time series and the number of available data, therefore the findings may not be robust.
