Abstract
Purpose. The problem of determining labor costs and regulating the number of the supervision units has not been fully investigated, but taking into account the current situation of uncertainty and the accumulation of unfulfilled functions within the framework of the current legislation, it is relevant and in demand. The authors investigated various methods for increasing the efficiency of the working time fund distribution, including by increasing the number of employees. As part of the general study, the authors selected experts to develop a questionnaire containing regulated types of work and allowing systematizing, structuring and processing the data obtained to improve the planning of employees' activities and increase their work efficiency. Based on the study of the existing methods, an approach is proposed to form an expert group and develop a questionnaire to determine the labor costs of the engineering and inspecting staff. The survey was conducted with the participation of the personnel of the Supervisory Department of the Main Directorate of EMERCOM of Russia for the Nizhny Novgorod Region. Methods. Statistical data on the number of control (supervisory) activities carried out by Federal State Fire Supervision authorities in the Nizhny Novgorod region were used. When selecting candidates for the expert group, the Delphi method, the “snowball” method, the ranking method, etc. were used. The method of expert assessments was used to develop the questionnaire. Findings. The list of consolidated operations performed by a State Fire inspecting officer was formed, a decomposition of work was carried out, which made it possible to form a questionnaire on the labor costs distribution for an official. The method for determining the probability of events occurrence based on retrospective statistical data was chosen. Research application field. The outcomes of the work make it possible to form a mathematical apparatus for determining statistical indicators; determine the labor costs for performing each type of work; explore objective and subjective factors affecting labor costs; build predictive models for the supervisory activities management. Conclusions. The work carried out made it possible to develop an approach to the formation of expert groups for solving multi-criteria problems of streamlining and distributing the working time fund of the engineering and inspecting staff.
