Analysis of Software Tools for Environmental Management of Professional Exposure to Nanoparticles in Enterprises

621-625Nanoparticles are increasingly present in a greater number of sectors, from construction, medicine or pharmacy to the textile or automotive sector. Their use is increasing due to their special properties and benefits, but their negative effects on human health and the environment must not be ignored. Therefore, it is necessary to use specific environmental management software in enterprises that evaluates exposure to nanoparticles in order to implement measures that mitigate or eliminate them. This paper aims at presenting and comparing the 5 most known software tools worldwide, since it is a field still in the process of development. After conducting a content analysis of each of them, the work is concluded with a comparison of them quantifying the analysis performed

Benefits and Risks of Green Jobs in the Construction Industry

154-157Green jobs have been introduced in different industries and sectors as a result of the current sustainable trend. These seek both social and environmental improvements, while its implementation generates new jobs. The construction industry has been the first specific sector of the economy that was addressed in the Green Jobs initiative of the International Labor Organization (ILO). But not all are benefits, as the use of new recyclable materials, new more ecological designs or new work processes, generate new occupational hazards. For this reason, in order to know the benefits and risks presented by green construction, this work carries out in the first place a bibliometric analysis of the works published between 2014 and 2018 on this subject, and then, a deductive content analysis
