Abstract
The main causes of injuries in construction are considered, as well as the connection between the increase in injuries and the increase in the share of high-rise construction based on statistical data from supervisory authorities and data from statistical information resources. An analysis of published studies on the problem of injuries in construction was carried out, and measures were considered in the field of reducing industrial injuries at construction sites. The main legal act regulating the performance of work at height has been analyzed, in which some shortcomings have been identified that mainly affect the safety of work at height. Recommendations are proposed for making additions in the field of performing work at height, such as the development of methods for specialized calculation of the load on an anchor device, the selection of anchor lines, as well as the introduction of additions to determine the minimum acceptable risk, the standardized indicator of which has not been measured to date.
