PEDAGOGICAL SYSTEM OF FORMATION OF THE CULTURE OF SAFETY OF PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY IN FUTURE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ENGINEERS

The article focuses on the need to form the culture of safety of professional activity in future occupational safety and health engineers. The purpose of the article is to theoretically substantiate and develop the structure of the pedagogical system of formation of the culture of safety of professional activity in future occupational safety and health engineers. Research methods applied: systematization and analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature and scientific and methodological documentation; modeling; classification and comparison; generalization. It is determined that the pedagogical system of formation of the culture of safety of professional activity in future occupational safety and health engineers is a complex dynamic and flexible formation that contains a set of interconnected and interdependent elements as goals, content, organizational forms, methods, tools, techniques and learning outcomes. It is established that the pedagogical system is aimed at increasing and improving the motivational and value sphere, professional knowledge, skills and professionally important qualities for the prevention and obviation of occupational injuries, gaining experience in safe professional activities and communication on occupational safety and is implemented through: educational goals (general, strategic, tactical, final); content of formation (labor protection, organizational and managerial, legal, ergonomic, health-preserving, communicative); forms of organization of educational activities that provide interactive work (problem lecture, lecture-visualization, lecture-dialogue, lectures-discussions, lectures in pairs, practical and laboratory work of interactive cooperation, workshops, problem seminars); methods (problem, moderation, training, brainstorming,  professional activity modeling); interactive pedagogical techniques (game, techniques of cooperation, design, case, vitagenic training techniques, information and communication techniques); complex of educational-methodical and didactic support (programs of academic disciplines and practices, reference notes of lectures, plans of laboratory and practical classes, means of visualization of educational information, legislative and normative documents on labor protection, formats of documents on labor protection, means of assessment of students’ educational achievements). It is concluded that the proposed pedagogical system makes it possible to improve the quality of professional training of future occupational safety and health engineers for their professional activities on the basis of safety culture in accordance with modern requirements.
