GRI 403-2 Managing occupational safety and health risks
The Uniform Industry-Wide Guidelines on Occupational Risk Management in ROSATOM's Organisations
have been put into effect as part of the industry-wide occupational safety and health management system.
This document is aimed at identifying workplace hazards, assessing occupational risk levels and developing
corrective measures to reduce occupational risks.
Occupational risks in the Company's organisations are managed as follows:
1. Identifying hazards in the workplace;
2. Assessing occupational risk levels in the workplace;
3. Developing measures to reduce occupational risk levels.
Occupational risk levels are assessed for each workplace. Occupational risk management commissions are
established in the organisations. Members of employees' professional associations (where such associations
exist) are involved in the work of the commissions. Members of the commissions are trained in occupational
risk management.
The results of hazard identification are formalised in the organisation's Safety Hazard Register. The
occupational risk level is assessed by the Company's organisations for each identified hazard in the
following order:
1. Assessing the level of occupational risk;
2. Assessing the acceptability of the occupational risk level (acceptable, tolerable, unacceptable).
An occupational risk assessment card is generated for each workplace.
Based on the occupational risk assessment results, the organisation develops an action plan to improve
the effectiveness of existing and implement additional occupational risk management measures. The
occupational risk management commission annually reviews the findings of the monitoring of occupational
risk assessment and management activities in order to ensure that all measures at the planning and
implementation stages have been implemented in full and on time. Based on the results of the annual
review, a plan of corrective actions (measures) is formed, which is aimed at improving the effectiveness of
occupational risk management.
The Corporation has set up and operates a hotline to receive employees' enquiries and reports concerning
working conditions and occupational safety and health.
