Питанням навчання та підвищення рівня охорони праці на Запоріжсталі приділяють особливу увагу. А фахівці Метінвест Політехніки – допомагають у цьому, знайомлять виробничників з новими, сучасними практиками та рішеннями.Нещодавно для працівників комбінату пройшов перший, демонстраційний тренінг на тему «Безпека на залізничному транспорті». На 16-годинному дводенному навчанні фахівці повторили базові правила охорони праці при роботі на залізниці, поговорили про ризики під час виконання маневрових, вантажно-розвантажувальних робіт. На реальних прикладах розібрали можливі аварійні ситуації та як їм запобігти.– Усі роботи на залізниці несуть за собою підвищену небезпеку. Тож питання охорони праці для нас завжди на часі. Звісно, ми володіємо достатньою кількістю знань та навичок, аби організувати безпечне виконання робіт на своїх дільницях, однак свою кваліфікацію постійно потрібно підвищувати. І такі тренінги в цьому дуже допомагають, – поділився начальник дільниці УЗТ Олександр БУТКЕВИЧ.
