Abstract
The mining industry is one of the key industries for the economy of Russia and the Republic of Bashkortostan. However, despite its significant contribution to economic development, this sector is characterized by a high level of industrial injuries. In this article, we will consider the main causes of injuries, statistical data, and measures to reduce them.
According to statistics, the main causes of injuries in the mining industry are: violation of safety rules, faulty equipment, low level of production control, insufficient training of workers, poor working conditions, lack of personal and collective protective equipment, and the human factor.
Industrial injuries in the mining industry of Russia and the Republic of Bashkortostan remain a serious problem that requires attention from both employers and government agencies. Taking effective measures to improve working conditions, train workers, and monitor compliance with occupational safety standards can significantly reduce the number of accidents at work and improve overall safety in the industry.
