Production Risks in the Personnel Management System: Western Experience

Abstract

The growing role of organizations in promoting risk management in production indicates their desire to improve the working conditions of personnel and control all risks. Personnel costs represent investments, not costs, that facilitate management in the direction of preventing risks associated with the business. This includes the definition of responsibilities and organizational structure, planning activities, responsibilities, practices, procedures and resources for the development, implementation, implementation, revision and maintenance of policies to prevent industrial risks.
 Improving the working conditions of personnel and environmental protection should be considered as important practical goals that can be achieved through measures such as risk factors control; adaptation of equipment and labor tools appropriate to human capabilities; changes in the organization, maintenance and control of labor; environmental monitoring and education. Risk assessment should be a dynamic process. For this, each enterprise, in accordance with the legislation, should develop a system for preventing industrial risks, the purpose of which is to promote the safety and health of employees by applying appropriate measures and procedures necessary for the continuous identification of hazards, risk assessment and implementation of necessary control measures.
