Abstract

Improving working conditions also yields economic results: an increase in profits (due to an increase in labor productivity); reduction of costs associated with compensation for work with harmful and difficult working conditions; reduction of losses associated with injuries, occupational morbidity; decrease in staff turnover, etc. The main document in the normative and technical documentation is the normative act “Occupational safety standards system”.
