Results analysis of the current system of providing medical care to workers of industrial enterprises ofthe Perm Krai revealed its insufficient effectiveness in terms of risks communication to employees health.The purpose of risk communication to employees is to provide them with reliable and scientifically basedinformation about health risk factors associated with harmful chemical factors, risk levels, necessary andimplemented risk management measures, as well as about ways and means of individual prevention ofhealth problems. A survey of enterprises employees, medical staff of health centers and medicalorganizations showed that more than half of the respondents did not know about the features of theproduction process of the enterprise, harmful occupational factors at workplaces and occupational risks.It seems expedient to improve the process of risk communication to the health of all interested parties,and when preparing materials about the risks to the workers’ health, one must take into account thepeculiarities of perception of this type of information.
