Currently in healthcare of the Russian Federation created a system of measures to combat the harmful effects of industrial noise on workers. However, the level of specific and nonspecific morbidity rates the effect of industrial noise is not reduced, and the incidence of occupational diseases tends to increase. This is due to several reasons, including a large number of sources of noise, not enough high quality of medical examinations, lack of and low effectiveness of means of individual protection from noise and others. Noise is one of the leading places among the harmful physical factors in the Armed forces of the Russian Federation. Features noise resulting from the operation of military equipment and armament is its high intensity, intermittent nature, the presence in the spectrum of low and infrasonic frequencies. Noise exposure leads to the development of diseases, primarily of the organ of hearing, increase in total morbidity and the reduction of military-professional health. In the normative documents of the military medical service the noise is not identified as a harmful factor leading to the development of occupational diseases that were not fully developed the issues of professional selection and medical examination of noise pathology. System noise control should be comprehensive and include organizational and technical measures, special assessment of working conditions, monitoring of noise sources, the presence and correct application of means of protection against noise professional selection, clinical monitoring, medical examination, treatment and preventive measures. Existing in the Armed forces of the Russian Federation the system of measures for the fight against harmful impact of noise on military personnel requires revision in accordance with the existing state legislative framework.

Special assessment of working conditions (SAWС) is a set of measures to identify harmful and (or) dangerous factors of the production environment and the labor process and assess the level of their impact on the employee. SAWС is regulated by the law of the Russian Federation and is mandatory for employers organizations. The current rules have been applied in practice relatively recently, since 2014. Despite a lot of comments on the legal aspects of SAWС, there is little research on the subjective perception of customers and performers of problems related to special assessment. The article presents some of the results of a survey of experts who conduct SAWС and representatives of customer organizations. The difficulties and reasons for dissatisfaction arising during the SAWС are identified, which relate to the choice of the contractor, the interest and involvement of customers, and compliance with procedures and deadlines by both parties. Based on the results of the survey and regulatory documents, step-by-step recommendations were developed and presented to help customer organizations. Recommendations contain a list of common errors that should be avoided. They will allow you to properly prepare and conduct all the stages of the SAWС, starting from the formation of the Commission to the application of the results.

There is implemented the development of the model of assessment of the risk from working conditions/ This model allows to solve the problem of the safe use of pesticides in agricultural production of the Russian Federation. The importance of the parallel assessment of the risk for the specific factor of the external exposure to operators (SF ex.) and absorbed dose (SF int.) is presented. Studies of more than 500 pesticides have shown the following correlation of the SF ex. and SF int.: in 8.3-37.5% cases SF ex. and SF int. were practically equal, in 44.8-85.7% cases SF ex. was higher up to by 10 times and in 8.3-26.3% cases SF int. is higher up to by 30 times. Introduction of the new evaluation criterion SF int. increases reliability of the risk assessment.

Introduction. Before the entry into force of the Federal law of the Russian Federation of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ "On special assessment of working conditions" one of the available and effective elements of occupational risk assessment in the workplace was workplace certification (WPC) for working conditions, which allows to identify harmful and/or dangerous factors of the production environment, assess the risk levels in the workplace and determine the main areas of employee protection from the adverse effects of harmful production factors. The results of a special assessment of working conditions (SAWC) can be used not only to develop and implement measures aimed at improving the working conditions of employees, informing employees about working conditions and the existing risk of damage to their health, but also to establish guarantees and compensation provided for by the Labor code of the Russian Federation (RF) for employees engaged in work with harmful and (or) dangerous working conditions. The aim of the study is to identify problematic issues during the implementation of SAWC at the workplaces of medical workers to prevent possible errors in its further implementation. Materials and methods. We used data obtained from the results of WPC and SAWC of medical workers of various medical organizations of the Republic of Tatarstan (RT). A retrospective analysis of cases of occupational diseases was applied according to the data of the Department of Rospotrebnadzor for the Republic of Tatarstan and the register of patients of the Republican Center of Occupational Pathology. Results. In the RT medical organizations according to the results of SAWC marked decrease in the number of jobs with hazardous working conditions from 92.2% to 78.2% due to the fact that the methodology of the SAWC will not assess the intensity of the work process in all workplaces health workers, and identification and evaluation of biological factors do not always reflect the actual microbiological status of the environment. As a result, working conditions are assessed as acceptable, which deprives medical workers of previously established guarantees and compensation. In addition, during periodic medical examinations (PME), studies on the biological factor are not fully carried out, which makes it difficult to diagnose viral hepatitis, which occupies the second place in the structure of occupational morbidity of medical workers. Conclusions. For high-quality implementation of SAWC in medical organizations, it is necessary to assess the intensity of the labor process of medical workers, taking into account intellectual, sensory, emotional loads, monotony of loads and working hours, and for the correct assessment of the biological factor, it is recommended to introduce an epidemiologist to the commission.

This article provides a classification and characteristics of persons convicted for crimes in the field of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances illicit trafficking. The article deals with the statistics in this sphere over the past five years. Based on the collected empirical evidence the authors analyzed the qualitative indicators of convicted drug offenders. The examination of statistical data from investigative and judicial practice on crimes in the field of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances illicit trafficking made it possible to sketch a criminal profile of a person sentenced to imprisonment: a citizen of the Russian Federation, a male between 18 to 39 years, having a secondary general or vocational education. Moreover, the personality of a convicted person is characterized by his internal criteria deformation devaluing the norms and rules that express and consolidate public interests. The authors also conducted a comparative analysis of offenders convicted both in the Russian Federation and in such federal subjects as Saint-Petersburg and Leningrad region. The choice of St. Petersburg as one of the objects of this research is justified by the fact that it has been among the leaders of the regions with the largest number of recorded drug-related crimes for several years.

The Civil Code of the Russian Federation provides an opportunity to the rightholder in case of infringement of his exclusive copyright and related rights to demand in court instead of compensation for damages incurred by him to pay compensation. In most cases, when the rightholder applies for judicial protection of his violated rights, he requires the recovery of compensation. This article discusses the legal nature of compensation as a legal remedy of an exclusive right and its primary functions. When writing an article, a comparative law research method is used. As a result of the analysis of russian and foreign legislation, as well as judicial practice, it was found that compensation, in addition to restorative, also has a preventive function and can be considered an analogue of statutory damages.
