Purpose: The article examines the concept and the way to meeting the requirements implemented health and safety management system in industrial enterprise like Coking Plant. Based on analysis proposed improvements, which would aim to improve working conditions in the company. Design/methodology/approach: The proposed improvements are designed for specificity of work, production scale and nature of possible threats in the analyzed enterprise. Findings: The analysis showed that health and safety management system is implemented with PN-N 18001. Due to the large number of possible threats that may arise during the processing of coke reported a slight decrease in accidents at work and occupational diseases. It is therefore necessary to implement improvements to the already functioning occupational health and safety management system in the enterprise. Research limitations/implications: The proposed changes to decrease accidents at work, which in will turn enhance the safety of the selected company. Practical implications: Implementation of the improvements will increase the awareness of staff in relation to existing threats. Improvements that were proposed did not require large financial outlays and changes in the organization and working time positions. However, in big companies such as Coking Plant, even the smallest step towards improving safety at work is important and desirable. Originality/value: Continuously improving the health and safety management system to improve working conditions.
