On the 28th of April 2015, at the trade union of the university employees session, the process of enforcing of the “Work and Health Safety” section tasks of the Labour Contract of the NTUU “KPI” was reviewed. The information was covered by the member of the trade union committee on work safety M. M. Poltoratsky. In particular, he mentioned: “Taking into consideration the positive dynamics of the results of the last year work, it should be mentioned, that at the university the team of like-minded specialists was formed to deal with the matters of work safety in two main directions”.

The first direction is aimed at implementation of the measures, defined by laws, decrees and other government regulations. The primary objective in the current year was the assessment of the workplaces in terms of working conditions for the workers of the structural divisions, entitled to have retiring privileges, fringe benefits and short workday. Same as in the previous years, the FCT specialists responsibly do their job, especially the chief in work safety T.A. Rohovska.

Also the issue of teaching and assessing employees on work safety are in consideration. Targeted at improving the quality of education, the department of work safety introduced the Themed plan and curriculum, control questions and tests for the reinforcement and assessment of the knowledge. There also was held the annual assessment of the employees working in dangerous conditions, the employees of FCE, FCT, FBB and the university lab, working with precursors.
The second direction is aimed at the search of innovative approaches, which facilitate the resolution to the issue of work safety at the university, and, in particular, implementation of themed measures in structural divisions, concerning explanation of the current legislation, decrees of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, enforcement of the rector’s orders and injury prevention in production industry and household. Together with the work safety department employees, parts are also taken by A. Sh. Apisheva – senior teacher of the Psycology and Pedagogics department of the FSL, S.M. Bitko – senior teacher of the FBE, J.V. Nesterenko – the head of the civil defence department, L.D. Tretiakova – associate professor of the work safety department of IESEM, O.V. Rymar-Shcherbina – the head of the work safety department of Solomiansk Regional Administration in Kyiv, V.A. Kondratiuk – the head of the civil association on public order maintenance, and the employees of the regional police department №1. The work in this direction is carried out in 24 university subdivisions, and reached around 1000 people.

Also, a lot of attention is paid to the document management, such as Inspection acts on employees’ resorts of work safety norms violation, put together by the trade union committee members and the work safety department. The department organized the inspecting competition on the issues of work safety, the results of which will be announced in the second semester. Monthly the electronic issue of “Health and Safety” magazine is provided to the structural divisions for using it practically.

In our opinion, the main contribution into carrying out the demands of the “Work and Health Safety” section of the Labour Contract of the NTUU “KPI” on providing safe working conditions of employees was made by the structural divisions, responsible for a lot of necessary work, such as measuring the insulation support of the electrical wiring and equipment, partial replacement of electricity mains in administrative buildings, measuring and testing work of electricity-generating equipment; education of the hostel superintendents and those responsible for the safe operation of gas supply facility; education of safety rules departments supervisors during working at height at the “Budkvalifkadr” education centre; providing hot water supply for academic buildings to maintain sanitation and hygiene standards; organizing conduction of scheduled fluorography for employees and students; replacement of windows with modern ones in academic buildings, major repairs of some of scientific laboratories and lecture theatres etc.

So, the main components of successful work on the issues of work safety at the university remain preventive maintenance and methodic help to structural divisions concerning improvement of work safety conditions. As well as effective cooperation of work safety department, trade union of the university and the trade union committee on work safety issues.
