Analysis of factors affecting the number of inspectors of the supervisory activity units of the EMERCOM of Russia

Abstract

Constant changes in the number of inspectors of the supervisory activity units of the Ministry of the Russian Federation for Civil Defence, Emergencies and Elimination of Consequences of Natural Disasters, both by reducing and increasing, have led to the need to search for and assess the significance of factors affecting the staffing structure of the units. In addition, for personnel decisions, it is necessary to conduct a retrospective analysis of changes in the number of staff units of the supervisory activity units of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia, as well as the level of correlation (Pearson correlation) of the number of units with the main indicators of the activities of supervisory authorities: the number of inspections, objects of supervision, fires, the number of people killed and injured in fires. Aim of the study: to identify statistically significant factors influencing the regulation of the staffing of the supervisory activity units of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia, to determine the level of correlation between these parameters, as well as: the number of objects of supervision and the number of actually conducted scheduled inspections; between the optimal number of inspections and the number of actually conducted scheduled inspections. Research method: the assessment of the level of influence of factors was carried out by the method of correlation analysis of statistical data on the main indicators of the EMERCOM of Russia in the period from 2011 to 2021. Results: the calculation of the optimal (evenly distributed over the years) number of inspections was made; the conclusion was made that there was no statistically significant relationship between the main performance indicators and the number of inspectors; the level of correlation between: the number of objects of supervision and the number of actually conducted scheduled inspections; between the optimal number of inspections and the number of actually conducted scheduled inspections. Practical significance: the results can be used to study the personnel potential and develop a methodology for calculating the optimal number of inspections for a specific department of supervisory activities of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia.
