INTELLIGENT LABOUR SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS BASED ON ARTIFICIALINTELLIGENCE: PROSPECTS FOR INTEGRATION INTO UKRAINIAN LEGISLATION

Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into occupational safety management systems is becoming increasingly relevant in today's rapidly evolving technological landscape. This study focuses on implementing intelligent systems for workplace safety in Ukraine, addressing the pressing need for national legislation to adapt to international standards and incorporate modern technologies. The significance of this research lies in its potential to enhance safety in work environments, ensuring the well-being of employees across various sectors. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the current state of AI adoption in occupational safety in Ukraine, identifying existing barriers and challenges enterprises face in the integration process. The research investigates the extent to which Ukrainian legislation reflects contemporary technological changes, particularly in AI, and how this compares to international practices. A comparative analysis reveals notable differences in the approach to workplace safety between Ukraine and other countries, highlighting areas where Ukraine lags in regulatory frameworks and technological implementation. This study involved a comprehensive review of existing literature, legislative documents, and case studies from industries where AI technologies have been successfully implemented. Key challenges identified include inadequate infrastructure, a lack of qualified personnel, and an updated regulatory framework addressing AI's unique aspects in occupational safety. The research emphasizes the importance of developing educational programs to enhance the skills of workers and managers in this field. The findings emphasize the necessity for a multi-faceted approach to overcome the identified obstacles. Recommendations include the active modernization of legislation, establishing national safety standards aligned with international requirements, and promoting collaboration with global organizations. By fostering a culture of safety that embraces technological advancements, Ukraine can effectively harness the potential of AI to improve workplace conditions. In conclusion, integrating AI into occupational safety management in Ukraine is both timely and essential. With the proper steps and commitment from all stakeholders, significant improvements can be achieved in workplace safety, reducing risks and enhancing productivity. This research contributes to the academic discourse on occupational safety and AI. It is a guiding framework for policymakers and industry leaders to create safer working environments.
