Administrative fines were imposed on 624 workers who breached regulatory requirements for industrial, radiation, and nuclear safety.

Increased attention was given to preventing accidents and incidents. A total of 44 incidents were recorded, 19 of which were fatal. Over 30,000 employees had their knowledge assessed and underwent retraining. Additionally, 3,634 permits were issued related to handling explosive and toxic substances and ionizing radiation sources.

The Committee is also actively working on implementing international obligations in nuclear, chemical, and biological safety. Jointly with the Ministry of Defense, chemical-biological counterterrorism exercises are planned for the first half of 2025.

Furthermore, on July 4, 2024, an online meeting with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was held to discuss programs aimed at enhancing radiological, environmental, and industrial safety.
