Abstract
Introduction. There have been some improvements in the area of occupational safety and health at Russian enterprises. However, the main challenges in this area need to be addressed urgently. Numerous cases of industrial injuries and occupational diseases are recorded. The existing systems of production organization do not always meet the requirements of the legislation to safety. The Federal Labour Inspectorate, Prosecutor's office and Trade Union organizations are constantly monitoring the concealment or misrepresentation of information about industrial accidents.
Materials and Methods. The statistics on occupational injuries is analyzed in terms of system analysis and synthesis, as well as correlation analysis. The tools of mathematical statistics and logic are used.
Research Result. The level of industrial injuries and occupational diseases gradually decreases at the enterprises with harmful and (or) dangerous working conditions. The problem of the reliability of the source data on injuries becomes more acute in this case. Management, owners, and sometimes affected employees are not interested in spreading accurate information about injuries associated with the performance of official duties. The situation is made worse by the lack of funding: first, companies do not have enough funds for labor protection measures; secondly, the management is trying to avoid fines. This is especially true for small businesses. Their turnover is lower, and, therefore, the shortage of funds that could be directed to labor protection is higher. In addition, small companies do not fill in Statistical Form No. 7 "Injuries". In addition, only selective monitoring of the state of occupational safety is applied to such organizations.
Discussion and Conclusions. The most often unfavorable from the point of safety situation is supported by the following factors: lack of funding; incorrect work schedule; participation of unskilled personnel in complex and dangerous production operations; operation of outdated or non-preventive equipment.
Taking into account the received data the organizational and economic mechanism can be created, which allows excluding corruptions of the reporting
