Abstract:

The article is devoted to the analysis of industrial injuries and occupational morbidity of workers of various types of economic activity. We also assess the condition of labor protection of workers at Russian enterprises for the last three years. Despite the fact that according to statistics, the number of accidents at work decreases year by year, the condition of labor protection at many Russian enterprises leaves much to be desired, and the number of occupational diseases related to the impact of harmful production factors is quite large.
