Monday, 21 February 2022
In 2021, the enterprise carried out 12 comprehensive scheduled inspections. Priority occupational safety measures include a 100% medical examination of workers; control over the position and condition of workwear; control over the environmental condition of the territory of distribution zones and production units; instructing employees on safety and labor protection issues (introductory briefing, initial at the workplace, repeated, if necessary, unscheduled and targeted).
— In 2016, instructions for identifying hazards, assessing risks and determining management measures were developed and implemented. The instruction establishes the procedure for identifying industrial hazards, a methodology for assessing risks in order to minimize and manage them before starting work. Thanks to the execution of the instructions and the involvement of all production personnel in work aimed at improving working conditions, monitoring production safety, implementing multi-level control at workplaces and training personnel, it allowed us to achieve high results, said a category 1 occupational safety engineer of the Occupational Safety and Health Service JSC "MREC" Edilkhan Dzhumamuradov.
JSC MREK has declared 2022 the Year of Safe Work. An action plan consisting of 40 points was developed and approved. A Safety Observation Card will be introduced among the company's employees to record violations. The map was developed by the Occupational Safety and Health Service specifically to monitor working conditions, safe organization and conduct of work.
— Violations will be analyzed based on the completed Safety Observation Cards. In cases of gross violations of safety regulations, measures will be developed, training and explanations will be organized aimed at developing safe behavior among workers. We are not going to stop there. The Labor Safety and Health Service of MREK JSC has established a new priority for personnel safety to achieve the level of 2000 days without injuries, noted Shabay Nurimov.
