Declaration of industrial safety - the main document of industrial-hazardous production

Enterprises all over the world are subject to classification, referring to light, heavy, food or other industries. They provide services, being a link in the social sphere or in the service sector. At the same time, many of the activities imply the existence of a license. But there are enterprises engaged in the development of deposits, directly by mining, transportation, processing or storage of hazardous substances. They must and must have such a document as an industrial safety declaration.

The existence of this act in organizations is stipulated by Article 14 of the Federal Law "On Industrial Safety of Hazardous Production Facilities", adopted on June 20, 1997. Similar acts exist practically in every country of the world. However, the declaration of hazardous activities in Russia has been carried out since 1995.

The Declaration of Industrial Safety takes into account the following points:

1. to provide for and take into account all types of risks from the activities of the organization;

2. Prevent and minimize threats from accidents;

3. to ensure 100% readiness of the equipment for further operation in full compliance with all industrial safety requirements;

4. To draw up measures for localization and liquidation of the accident that occurred at the factory;

5. take into account and take measures to avoid large scale disasters and minimize the amount of damage if an accident does occur.

Development of the declaration of industrial safety is carried out directly with the development of documents for the construction, reconstruction, technical re-equipment, expansion, modernization and overhaul of an industrial-hazardous facility. In addition, even with the liquidation and conservation of the company, this document is necessary.

If the organization is preparing for expansion, modernization (technical re-equipment), suspension of its activities or closure, the declaration passes a procedure called "examination of the declaration of industrial safety." Project documentation related to these processes passes through state analysis in accordance with established requirements, identified by the legislation of a particular country (in this case the Russian Federation).

After the experts have reviewed the plan, the industrial safety declaration with marks and conclusions falls into Rostechnadzor. It is this organization, or rather its central apparatus, that is the body that exercises direct control, as well as overseeing the observance of all stages of the activities of hazardous industries. After that the document is given to local authorities, citizens, organizations in the order established by the government of the country.

The Declaration of Industrial Safety is available in every country. The need for it is associated with a huge number of accidents at enterprises that use hazardous substances. This is what prompted the European Economic Union, and then other countries, to adopt a Directive containing measures to prevent accidents at production facilities and to minimize the consequences after them.
