Staffing of technosphere safety in agro-industrial complex structures: status and ways of improvement

Key Points

The need for improving technosphere safety is urgent as injury rates in the agro-industrial complex are rising.
Current statistics show a 36.1% employment in hazardous conditions, necessitating certified safety specialists.
Innovative measures such as robotization are critical to effectively manage risks and reduce occupational injuries.
Focus on developing training programs for personnel in the agro-industrial sector to mitigate safety hazards.

Abstract

The paper considers the special state and social significance of the new scientific direction “technosphere safety”. Its components are named and brief information is given on the need and necessity of solving the components of life systems in Russia and globally. A brief information is provided on the need to solve problems of the most important component of the life systems of technosphere safety, namely, occupational safety based on an analysis of the state of industry in 2019–2023 on the territory of Russia (in terms of the number of light injuries, severe injuries fatal cases). There is an increase in the number of outcomes in all three components in 2023 compared to the previous year, which is a consequence of 36.1 % of those employed in jobs with harmful and dangerous working conditions and 20.1 % of those working in difficult conditions. This information contributes to the development of injury prevention methods by professional human personnel, whose training is intensively conducted by educational, scientific and scientific production teams. There is an increase in the needs of the life structures of the All-Russian Classifier of Economic Activities, including the agro-industrial complex, for certified specialists in the field of technosphere safety; the estimated need for them in the country is about 60 thous. persons (including more than 4.5 thous. persons for the agro-industrial complex). The emphasis is placed on the need to increase attention to the scientific and practical justification of a complex of innovative occupational safety measures with a focus on electromechanization and robotization of technological processes, blocking the risks of potential hazards in injuries, accidents and catastrophes. In this direction, the author's innovative solutions are given as an example, focused on the dynamic reduction and elimination of occupational injuries in life support systems, including the agro-industrial complex.
