Sažetak

This paper presents the results of research which was conducted among elementary schools in Split. The main aim was to investigate experiences and preparedness in case of everyday dangerous situations as well as in case of hazardous events. The research was motivated by raising hazardness of life in contemporary society, which is manifested on global level as increase of large accidents, disasters and other situations of crisis, and at level of everyday life as injuries and individual victims. Data show that, in such conditions, children are among most vulnerable segments of population.
According findings, everyday dangerous situations and incidents have predominated in experiences of pupils and schools, while hazardous events are not recorded. Preparedness is not at acceptable level because of two main reasons: most of the pupils don’t know recommended behaviors in case of dangerous and hazardous situations, and second, some factors which decrease school preparedness level were detected. In conclusion findings are observed in context of contemporary Croatian society, and are interpreted regarding neglecting of hazards and dangers.
