Abstract


The problem of the safe functioning and development of modern enterprises in the context of rapid globalization and the influence of various kinds of threats cannot be solved without effective management. According to a systematic approach, management is understood as the purposeful impact of the managing subsystem on the managed. It is also worth noting that management is a complex and dynamic process, the main purpose of which is to achieve a specific goal.

Conceptually, enterprise management involves the management of specific activities. One of the most important components in the process of functioning of any enterprise is the management of safety activities policy. Since this type of activity allows you to timely identify and neutralize the negative impact of both internal and external threats that have a direct impact on all other types of activities.

The term "safety activity" is quite new in safety science. In the scientific literature, safety activity is defined as "a form of active attitude of safety subjects to safety reality, the content of which is to make appropriate changes based on the assimilation and development of safety culture. That is, this activity is aimed at countering threats, resumption of activities to protect corporate interests, maintaining the integrity of processes or systems based on the assimilation and development of safety culture" [1, p. 155]. The safety activity is complex in structure and relationships and at the same time integrated in various areas of activity, and therefore it needs to be organized and implemented in the form of a system. That is, a safety activity requires a systematic approach, which is based on the foundations of theoretical knowledge. Theoretical knowledge is defined as "the phenomenon of reflection of reality with the help of abstract thinking and research in the process of which the essential properties or sides of an object are distinguished, objective laws, relationships and tendencies of its development turn out to be inaccessible to sensory cognition" [1, p. 158].

Thus, management of safety activities is a complex process that requires a systematic approach in the overall management of the enterprise. Because a systematic approach allows safety subjects to think comprehensively and achieve a successful outcome.
