Ensuring labor protection in the light of the new public policy. Conference

The development of human capital and maintenance of favorable conditions of labor activity remain among the key priorities of public policy in the sphere of labor protection. Despite the elaboration of the concept of risk management in Russia, the traumatism level remains very high, and labor law violations keep occurring. Lack of protection of the workers from industrial accidents and the growth of occupational illnesses are a grave problem, the resolution of which depends on a number of factors. Precarious work conditions are not duly considered, and compensation mechanisms only kick in in the case of an accident.
