Abstract
In the current situation (military and ecological threats, pandemia COVID-19), the health and safety management role is increasing. Providing socially responsible, resource-efficient, and environmentally sensitive workplaces, safe working conditions, improving staff health, and reducing stress and occupational diseases are the essential tasks of human resources management (HRM). Aim: To study the implementation of personnel health and safety practices in Ukrainian companies and develop profiles of the leading organizations. Method: A sociological survey was conducted to assess the spread of personnel health and safety practices in Ukraine. Findings: Creating environmentally-friendly working conditions is the most popular practice in Ukrainian companies. Two-thirds (66.7 %) of respondents confirmed that the organizations implement such practices. Measures to improve the employees’ health and reduce stress and occupational disease caused by an unhealthy environment are less spread. 58.8 % of respondents indicated the introduction of these practices. The less common are practices of creating resource-saving and environmentally sensitive workplaces. Only 43.1 % of respondents pointed out that the organizations create such workplaces. The profiles of the leading organizations in safety management practices were developed. Experience in health and safety management should be examined and disseminated to HRM policies.
