Abstract

Purpose. To investigate occupational safety and seek recommendations for its improvement in the context of the impact of individual factors on the mental health of workers in conditions of wartime. Methodology. To achieve the goal, the following research methods were used in the work: analytical – analysis of scientific and technical literature; sociological – studying the state of industrial injuries with fatal consequences; statistical – processing of statistical data. Results. The analysis of the latest research and publications on this issue has been carried out, and the current legislative and regulatory acts regarding the impact of mental health on occupational safety have been investigated. It is shown that the high level of industrial injuries in Ukraine for 10 months of 2023 indicates the shortcomings of guaranteeing labor safety. The main types of events that led to fatal accidents have been presented, and it has been noted that more than a third of them are related to the conduct of hostilities. It has been determined that the international standard ISO 45003:2021 "Occupational health and safety management. Psychological health and occupational safety at work. Guidelines for the management of psychosocial risks" contains instructions for planning, implementation, evaluation of the health and safety management system in the workforce, which are appropriate to use in wartime. The main factors that cause the appearance of stress during the performance of labor duties have been given. Recommendations for the formation of a psychologically safe working environment at the enterprise under martial law conditions have been offered. Scientific novelty. The study involves a comprehensive investigation of individual factors of workers' mental health in the context of occupational safety in times of war. Practical significance. Managing psychosocial risks and providing psychological support to workers can be crucial elements of business strategies to reduce the level of industrial injuries and create a safe and healthy working environment in times of war.
