Purpose: To develop a system of automated protection of employees from Covid-19 and other infections, it is implemented through minimizing the risks of contracting the SARS-CoV-2 virus and other respiratory viral infections within the enterprise. Design/methodology/approach: Analysis of legal normative documents and scientific and technical literature – to update the scientific problem and formulate the research tasks; methods of system analysis - to build the overall structure of the system and to establish relationships between its elements; simulation methods - to develop the algorithms of functioning and interaction of sensors and actuators of the corresponding subsystems; methods of decision theory and data mining - to develop the training programs and testing the knowledge of employees on epidemic safety. Findings: The system of automated protection of employees from Covid-19 and other infections was developed, which, due to the connection of functionally independent elements according to a certain scheme, allows minimizing the risk of contracting the SARS-CoV-2 virus and other respiratory viral infections of employees at the enterprise and increasing their protection from the occurrence of the corresponding infections by implementing a complex of anti-epidemic measures within the system and providing and constant support of the quarantine regime at the enterprise in accordance with WHO recommendations. The developed system was implemented and pilot tested at the industrial enterprise "Odessa Experimental Plant" (Odessa, Ukraine). Based on the results of the development of the system, an application was filed for obtaining a patent for invention No. a 202105894 dated 20.10.2021. Research limitations/implications: The number of system elements can change (increase/decrease) depending on the number of workplaces, as well as areas requiring control. Practical implications: The implementation of the proposed system allows increasing the level of economic sustainability of the enterprise in a complex epidemiological situation of the state or world level by minimizing the risks of enterprise shutdown as a result of the need to limit social and labour connections between employees due to implementation a full range of antiepidemic measures (in accordance with WHO recommendations) at the enterprise and constant compliance with the established quarantine regime by the employees at enterprise. Originality/value: For the first time, the system of automated protection of employees from Covid-19 and other infections was developed and proposed for use at enterprises, institutions and organizations, which, unlike others, allows the implementation of a full range of appropriate anti-epidemic measures at the enterprise (according to WHO recommendations) and ensure compliance with the established quarantine regime by the employees, due to the constant management of the sanitary-epidemic control modes of admission to the enterprise, disinfection of surfaces, ventilation and air decontamination of industrial premises etc.
