The priorities set out in the Address of the Head of State are important for the further development of the research and expert activities of the Republican Research Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (RNIIOT).
Within the Institute’s competence, the following areas are particularly relevant:
Digitalisation and the Introduction of Modern Technologies
The course towards digital transformation and the introduction of artificial intelligence set by the Head of State is relevant to improving the occupational safety and health management system, developing digital tools for occupational risk assessment and applying modern technologies for monitoring working conditions.
Industrial and Technological Development
The priorities of the technological modernisation of industry make it necessary to provide scientific support for changes in production processes, to improve approaches to the organisation and standardisation of labour, and to take modern technological solutions into account when assessing working conditions.
Improving Social Policy
The provisions of the Address aimed at modernising the social support system are important for the scientific study of social protection mechanisms for workers, including those employed in hazardous working conditions, and for developing approaches that take occupational risks into account.
Scientific and Expert Support for Sustainable Development
Implementing the socio-economic priorities set out in the Address increases the importance of evidence-based decisions, expert assessment and applied research aimed at improving the occupational safety and health system and ensuring safe working conditions.
