Abstract

The existing external economic situation in the country, the offer to create in Eastern Siberia "a carbon-free zone" will have a negative impact on production safety in the Kemerovo region – the largest coal-mining region of the country. The aim of the research is to assess the real situation in production safety of the region and to justify the need to develop measures for its increase. In the article, the assessment of the production safety of the Kemerovo region is carried out by its main criteria: the actual level of production decline during the considered period, the current state of the fixed industrial assets, the comparative investments amount and behavior. The results of the study revealed that along with the positive movements in the Kemerovo region's economy in the recent years there began to show problems and constraints in the effective functioning of the industrial facilities mainly under the influence of geopolitical factors in relation to production safety. The level of production safety of the Kemerovo region, despite the existence of a significant amount of natural resources, is in crisis. The research results can be used for development of the strategy of development of the region.
