Periodic control of working conditions
The paper presents the results of a comparative analysis of the methods of working conditions control stipulated by the Legislation of the Russian Federation. Some deficiencies are revealed concerning the "Methods for the special assessment of working conditions" approved by the Ministry of Labor. These include the following: unjustified reduction of the list of workplaces to be subjected to the special assessment of working conditions, reducing and distortion of hygiene parameters taken to assess the level of adverse impacts in the industrial environment and labor process. The unsuitability of the "Methods for the special assessment of working conditions" for objective characteristics of working conditions is substantiated.
