Abstract

The article explores the current challenges related to occupational safety in the transport sector of Ukraine, emphasizing the growing importance of systematic prevention and effective risk management. The study analyzes the main causes of occupational injuries and emergencies, highlighting both technical and organizational shortcomings in existing safety management systems. Particular attention is given to the insufficient implementation of modern risk-oriented approaches and the limited integration of advanced organizational and technical solutions at transport enterprises. The authors substantiate the need to transform traditional occupational safety practices by adopting international standards, such as ISO 45001 and ISO 31010, and by strengthening digitalization processes that enable real-time monitoring of hazards. Based on the results of the analysis, a comprehensive model is proposed for forming organizational and technical prerequisites that aim to reduce injury rates, enhance the efficiency of preventive actions, and improve the reliability of production processes. The model integrates key components such as hazard identification, risk assessment, digital monitoring systems, personnel training, modernization of equipment, and development of a corporate safety culture. It also provides mechanisms for coordinating management decisions, improving regulatory and methodological support, and implementing preventive programs tailored to the specifics of the transport industry. The findings demonstrate that using a systemic approach, supported by digital technologies and analytical tools, significantly strengthens the ability of enterprises to predict and prevent dangerous events. The proposed model can serve as a practical foundation for improving occupational safety management systems, supporting the development of industry programs, and ensuring sustainable and safe functioning of the transport sector.
