Abstract

The development of methodology for assessing the risk of occupational diseases of electrical engineering personnel caused by the action of magnetic fields is presented. The analysis of regulatory documents in the field of labor protection, concerning, in particular, risk assessment, is given. The article is written with consideration of indicators and criteria for assessing professional risks. The methodology of risk assessment is presented for cases when there are sources of magnetic fields at the workplaces of electrical engineering personnel which adversely affect human health. A logical tree of events related to high levels of magnetic fields at the workplace has been developed. The main stages of the procedure for assessing professional risks are described. The risk criteria and corresponding classification of working conditions are given. Organizational and technical measures are proposed to reduce the level of occupational risk. The materials of the article can be used to determine the occupational risk of the event «danger associated with exposure to magnetic fields on personnel», as well as to establish higher requirements for occupational safety by the organization.
