Occupational safety and health has been and remains a crucial socio-economic issue that requires constant attention from the state, employers, and employee associations. Occupational safety and health is vitally important for employees, employers, and society as a whole. Success in the continuous, demanding, and meticulous work aimed at preserving the life, health, and working capacity of employees at each workplace can only be achieved by uniting the efforts of employers and employees. It is from this perspective that real activities should be organized when implementing occupational safety and health measures at the employer's level. Employees must comply with occupational safety and health requirements and fulfill the duties established by legislation and regulatory occupational safety and health requirements.

For an employee, occupational safety and health is the only way to preserve their most valuable asset – life, health, and working capacity. It must be an integral and strictly enforced part of their work duties. Unfortunately, in reality, we often encounter employee indifference towards their own well-being and a low level of culture in labor relations. It is well known that working in safe and healthy conditions at the workplace requires a sufficient level of knowledge and skills in modern methods of organizing safe work. Enhancing the knowledge of managers and their deputies, specialists, and employees is the key to resolving a number of issues related to these matters.
