Transition to the concept of professional risk management
assumes the transfer of focus from measures of response to accidents after
they have happened to activities for preventive measures, i.e. risk management
of workers' health. The strategy of "reactive" response within the
framework of the traditional system of managing occupational safety of
workers focused primarily on compensating for the negative consequences
of accidents. However, it does not focus on eliminating the systemic
causes of their occurrence and, as a result, does not lead to positive
changes in reducing traumas and injuries. The results of the analysis of the
socio-economic efficiency of this strategy suggest the need for a transition
to a different type of occupational safety management – which is "proactive",
therefore the priorities are not the management of "occupational environment",
but the management of "employee work safety", based on
identification and assessment of professional risks. The calculation of the
economic efficiency of measures for employee protection and the prevention
of industrial injuries on the example of agricultural workers in the
Kurgan region was the aim of the present study.
