Abstract

Occupational safety is a key condition of any work activity, especially in the sphere of education. The occupational safety aspect is a part of teaching technical subjects, including in a wider context (environmental, medical, aesthetic, economic, energy, and others), and constitutes the basis of the modern vocational training concept. According to J. Pechar and J. Pehe [9], occupational safety is a set of work conditions which limits the influence of hazardous factors in the work process. The goal is to handle the “person – technical tools – work environment” system in a complex fashion. In classrooms, laboratories, workshops, and the practical education as a whole, teachers of technical subjects guarantee not only occupational health and safety requirements during the teaching and training process itself, but at the same time instil in their pupils a positive attitude to the issues of occupational health and safety. That is why educators must be aware of the wider occupational health context. Individual activity spheres of legal provisions which concern the safety of those participating in educational activities are governed by a variety of laws and regulations, from the Labour Code to the decrees of the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sports. These issues are collectively addressed in methodical education guides. Ensuring the safety and health of students is one of the basic duties schools shall provide. The theoretical part of the work describes the general conditions aimed at ensuring safety of students and analyses school injuries and first aid. The practical part contains results of a questionnaire survey and compares them with individual hypotheses/
