Студенти Метінвест Політехніки, які навчаються за освітньою програмою «Безпека праці та виробничих процесів», взяли участь у вебінарі «Ефективне управління ризиками в охороні праці: ключ до безпеки». Цей захід став важливою частиною їхньої підготовки, адже були розглянуті актуальні питання безпеки на виробництві та управління ризиками.Діана РомановаПід час вебінару студенти дізналися, як належна оцінка ризиків впливає на впровадження нових технологій і процесів на підприємствах. Один із прикладів, що був розглянутий, стосувався ситуації, коли на виробництві через недооцінку потенційних ризиків виникли проблеми з підвищеним рівнем шуму, вібрацією та травматизмом серед працівників. Це призвело до додаткових витрат, яких можна було б уникнути за умови проведення детальної оцінки ризиків перед впровадженням нових технологій.Наталія ВОЛОДЧЕНКОВА, гарант програми «Безпека праці та виробничих процесів» окремо зазначила: «Ми прагнемо якомога комплексніше підготувати наших студентів до професі
