Application of Professional Risk Management Methods in the Occupational Safety and Health Management System at an Oil and Gas Production Enterprise

Personal characteristics of employees play a significant role in shaping their behavior in the workplace. However, certain personality traits can also become risk factors that contribute to dangerous situations in the workplace. The purpose of this study is to develop and test a method for assessing the risk behavior of personnel in order to create safe working conditions and prevent occupational risks. Risk behavior refers to the behavior of employees at the workplace who are prone to violating occupational safety and health requirements. The paper presents the results of a study of the assessment of such behavior among employees of an oil and gas enterprise using an ipsative questionnaire. The study included an analysis of the methods used at the enterprise to manage occupational risks, a questionnaire for employees on their commitment to safe work, and a calculation of the dynamics of injuries at the enterprise. Detailed research was conducted, and the results were supported by illustrations and tables, which adds scientific credibility and clarity to the work. Methods for applying the research results at the enterprise were proposed.
