Kovalenko // Proceedings University of Ruse "Angel Kanchev". – Ruse, Bulgaria. – 2013. – Vol. 52, book 10.2 – Р. 22 – 26.1311-3321https://dspace.nuft.edu.ua/handle/123456789/11888For the analysis and assessment of safety in the meat industry due to incompletely statistics in the field of agriculture for identifying factors that affect the safety, it is advisable to use the method of expert estimations. At the initial stage of experimental work, when we should separate the most important factors according to interview of specialists, from large number of factors, special attention is given to a priori method of ranking factors. Feature of the method is that the factors which, according to a priori information can have a significant impact, are ranked by decreasing their influence. The aim is to evaluate and identify the aggregate of factors that affect the risk of injury to workers meat processing plants during manufacturing operations in the workplace. Studies were conducted using the method of a priori ranking factors on the results of the expert survey. Analysis of the results of expert evaluation with sufficient consensus view of experts (95%) allowed us to rank and prioritize factors, what are affecting on overall injury rate during the process, and also importance of measures that will improve the level of safety in meat processing plants. The most significant impact on injuries and occupational diseases of workers meat processing enterprises has organizational and technical group factors. These factors, above all, should be considered when designing measures for safety in the workplace enterprises of meat industry.ensafety and health at workoccupational injuryrisk assessmentmatrixfactorsmethodбезпека працівиробничі травмиоцінка ризиківматрицяфакториметодкафедра екологічної безпеки та охорони праціArticle
