The Deputy Head of the Occupational Health and Safety Service at Mosgortrans on a profession that almost always remains behind the scenes: why an occupational health and safety specialist today works not only with documents, but also with people, how "invisible" work affects company risks and expenses, and why the development of technology makes this role more complex, rather than simpler.
