The article іn the current conditions of Ukraine's
development, globalization and integration processes,
during martial law, ensuring occupational safety and
health becomes a priority at the national level.
Standards in this area determine the basic
requirements for the protection and safety of workers'
lives and health (including psychological), the
working environment, and the prevention of
occupational injuries, especially in conditions of
endless shelling and other manifestations of armed
aggression. European countries and international
organizations, in particular the International Labor
Organization (ILO), ISO, and the European Union,
are actively implementing and developing systems of
standards in the field of occupational safety and
health, which have universal significance and
application. Our state is in the process of reforming
national legislation, especially regarding
occupational safety. Therefore, it is important to adapt
such standards to our internal legal and socioeconomic
realities. Striving for European integration,
Ukraine must harmonize its labor legislation with
international standards, in particular ILO conventions
and EU directives.
That is, the purpose of this article is to analyze
the state of international standards in the field of
occupational safety and health, study the degree of their adaptation in national legislation and identify key prospects for harmonizing the regulatory framework.
