Identification and Risk Assessment of Hazard Occurrence at the Aksu Ferroalloys Plant During 2007–2012

Abstract

This article is devoted to important aspects of preventing workplace trauma in the ferrous metallurgy industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The article focuses in particular on the Aksu Ferroalloys Plant, which is one of the largest factories in that industry. The use of Kinney’s method to evaluate workplace safety makes it possible to assess risks and implement the organizational, technical, and technological measures necessary to avoid hazardous situations that can lead to emergencies or accidents. Such measures reduce the number of injuries at factories.
