[The study of implementation of digital technologies on sphere of labor protection and its impact on personnel of enterprises of marine industry].

Abstract

The innovative technologies are becoming widespread in all spheres of human life, including labor protection. The AI, modern systems of monitoring and data analysis permit to develop devices with functions to determine physical conditions of workers, to track and to prevent emergency situations and to minimize occupational traumatism. The mentioned advantages of such devices are very important in working conditions at maritime industry enterprises where risk of traumatism is increased and physician providing timely qualified care is absent on shipboard. In such conditions it is more rational to prevent risks of traumatism. The list of such devices is quite wide: from sensors analyzing external environment to intelligent helmets and boots. With all visible advantages of implementation of innovations into labor protection, the issues of their application in order to control production efficiency of employees continue to be mixed ones. Thus, data from different studies, as well as original survey of ship crew members fixed negative attitude of personnel to such devices reasoning stress condition and increased anxiety level. Hence, it is necessary to develop a number of recommendations permitting to implement innovations into labor protection within the framework of maritime industry and to consider psychological state of workers in order to prevent development of diseases caused by high levels of stress.
