Abstract
The article presents an overview of the main available methodological approaches to implement the procedure of a quantitative assessment of workforce’s occupational risk in companies. The research methodology is based on the analysis of recent scientific publications and the investigation of methods and tools used in occupational risk assessment. In this study, the authors identify the advantages and disadvantages of using each methodology considered, assess the feasibility of the methods applied in activities aimed at improving the working conditions, industrial traumatism and occupational diseases reduction. The study proves that existing techniques based on rating-interval evaluating systems and matrix methods have significant limitations including infeasibility of application for the development of the list of activities to reduce occupational risk and a low level of evidence of the indicators and the assessment criteria applied. The analysis concludes with the requirements for the methodological approach to a quantitative occupational risk assessment
