The metallurgical industry is one of the most developed industries in Ukraine, where employees’ workplaces are exposed to harmful and dangerous factors of the production environment of various natures, which can contribute to the development of occupational and work-related pathology. Based on the results of the study protocols and maps of working conditions for 2011-2021, the study of working conditions of workers in the open-hearth, sintering and blast furnace shops of a metallurgical enterprise as a health risk factor was conducted. It has been determined that the working conditions of the employees of the studied workshops are harmful, belong to class 3 of the 4th degree of harmfulness, and correspond to a very high degree of suspected occupational risk. It is established that the leading occupational risk factors at this enterprise include the production microclimate (class 3.4) and the content of dust and chemicals in the air of the working area (classes 3.1-3.4), which in turn requires the use of effective preventive measures aimed at preventing the adverse effects of production factors on the health of workers.
