This report summarises the results of the first or assessment phase of this project, while the second phase will focus on implementing the recommendations set forth in this report. To begin, UNDP partnered with DTEK and Metinvest, two of the largest energy and mining companies in Ukraine, to implement this project. UNDP also received endorsements from the mayors of Krasnodon, Rovenky, and Sverd- lovsk, as well as the governor of the Luhansk Oblast State Administration to proceed with the effort. UNDP then conducted dozens of interviews, focus groups, and community workshops to understand the health and safety needs of miners. UNDP also worked closely with DTEK Rovenkiantratsit, DTEK Sverdlovantratsit, and Metinvest Krasnodonugol to examine the working conditions of miners. Over the course of three months, UNDP had engaged over 250 miners, miners’ spouses, health workers, and government officials to discuss the miners’ needs and priorities. In addition, UNDP contracted GfK Ukraine, the country’s largest market research firm, to conduct a study on the health and safety of miners based on the medical exams and opinion surveys of 373 miners. The results of this study helped shape the proposed action plans for each of the three target communities. Overall, UNDP found the most pressing health and safety issues of miners to be respiratory diseases, cardiovas- cular diseases, and occupational traumas. While DTEK and Metinvest have done much to improve the health and safety of miners, there is still much work to be done. Each community has specific and unique needs, but in general, the proposed action plans focus on upgrading medical equipment, improving emergency transportation, and conducting preventative health work. The follow- ing sections describe the process, results, and proposed actions in greater detail. 5 ASSESSMENT REPORT Improving the Health and Safety of Miners in Eastern Ukraine Key findings The following list summarises the key findings from the health and safety assessment of miners in Krasnodon, Rovenky and Sverdlovsk. Subsequent sections explain the findings in further details. Health Issues • The most prominent health issues of miners in Krasnodon, Rovenky, and Sverdlovsk are respiratory diseases, cardiovascular diseases, occupational injuries and musculoskeletal conditions. • More than 37 per cent of miners in Rovenky and Sverdlovsk suffer from respiratory diseases. Chronic bron- chitis alone affects 330 per 1,000 miners—a rate seven times higher than the general adult populations in Rovenky and Sverdlovsk. • About 18 per cent of miners in Rovenky and Sverdlovsk suffer from cardiovascular diseases. For example, 57.6 per 1,000 miners suffer from ischemic heart disease compared to the national average of 53.1 per 1,000 people or the European average of 36.3 per 1,000 people.1 • In Rovenky and Sverdlovsk, the most common musculoskeletal conditions of miners are osteochondrosis (68 per 1,000 miners) and lower back pain (42 per 1,000 miners). • The Luhansk Clinic of the Ministry of Internal Affairs classified miners into three health groups: I) generally healthy, II) those who have had acute and/ or chronic disease(s) in the past, and III) those who currently have a chronic disease. Of those who took part in the study, 33 per cent were classified into Health Group I, 13 per cent into Health Group II, and 54 per cent into Health Group III. • Still, miners are rather optimistic about their heath: 61 per cent are satisfied with it even though 54 per cent are classified in Health Group III. In fact, only 8 per cent are dissatisfied with their health. • At the same time, 70 per cent of miners worry that their health might deteriorate because of harmful working conditions, and 46 per cent worry that it might deteriorate because of unhealthy habits (e.g., smoking, alco- hol consumption). • For the most part, miners consult doctors for their health problems (64%). They also consult health profession- als at their enterprise (34%), acquaintances and relatives (27%), pharmacists (23%), and the Internet (10%). • A large number of respondents prefer self-treatment or to do nothing in treating some of their health issues. For example, only 64 per cent of respondents consulted a doctor to treat bronchitis, 44 per cent for back- aches, and 40 per cent for sore throats over the last 12 months (August 2011-August 2012). • Fifty-nine per cent of miners (63% of underground workers and 47% among aboveground workers) consider that the health care system in their city satisfies their needs. • Eighteen per cent of miners are unsatisfied with the quality of medical care, 16 per cent with inconvenient schedules of medical institutions, 15 per cent with expensive medicines, and 12 per cent with expensive medical services. • Miners’ families and pharmacists play an important role in the health and wellbeing of miners. At least 15 per cent of miners use medical products advised by a pharmacist, 9 per cent use medical products advised by family members or acquaintances, and 8 per cent use folk remedies. 6 KEY FINDINGS Safety Issues • The rates of occupational injuries have decreased at all three enterprises since 2007: by 66 per cent at Krasno- donugol, 21 per cent at Rovenkiantratsit, and 20 per cent at Sverdlovantratsit. • In 2011, the national average for occupational injuries of.

  • Mariupol Metals Workers Help to Restore the Vostochny Microdistrict
    25 май 2015 Mariupol metals workers help to restore the Vostochny microdistrict Metinvest Group's metallurgical plants in Mariupol allocated UAH 6 million for restoration work in the Vostochny microdistrict that was damaged during an artillery shelling on 24 January. Construction teams from the plant installed glass windows in about 1,500 apartments and repaired dozens of private houses. Two damaged schools and four kindergartens were repaired and recommissioned. In February, Ilyich Iron & Steel Works of Mariupol repaired Regular Education School #57, Specialized School #5, and Kindergartens #47 and #165. Azovstal restored Kindergarten #42, which was damaged by a shock wave. By April, Ilyich Iron & Steel Works of Mariupol, Azovstal and Zaporizhstal had completed construction and repair work at Kindergarten #160, which had sustained the most damage from the attack. About 1,000 iron and steel workers worked every day in the Vostochny microdistrict. Besides the costs to renew the damaged infrastructure, the metallurgical plants allocated about UAH 2.2 million to residents to restore their residences themselves. The "We Help" Humanitarian Crisis Center of Rinat Akhmetov's Fund rendered a substantial amount of aid to Mariupol residents who were in need. The humanitarian organization sent medicine and provided hospitals with everything to treat victims already on the day of the attack. Volunteers from the fund also provided qualified psychological assistance to victims and their relatives. Yuriy Ryzhenkov, Metinvest Group CEO: "Despite our huge financial issues, our metallurgical plants gave a helping hand to all residents who suffered because of the attacks. Helping all of the victims is a principle from SCM shareholder Rinat Akhmetov.

    15 September 2014 Kiev IMPACT OF THE CONFLICT IN LUHANSK AND DONETSK OBLASTS ON THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC INFRASTRUCTURE SUMMARY This paper presents a summary of the damage assessment in areas affected by the armed conflict of Luhansk and Donets oblasts in the period since the beginning of the conflict until 14 September 2014. As of 14 September 2014, 1,968 facilities (including social infrastructure, residential houses, and enterprises) were reported to receive the damage, amounting to a monetary loss of total UAH 5.958 bn hryvnias, or US$ 440 mln (estimated, without account of unconfirmed damages in the residential sector, disruption of contracts, and lost profits of business enterprises). Among those reported 995 facilities are located in Luhansk oblast (UAH 1.094 million), and 783 facilities are in Donetsk oblast (UAH 3.964 billion). 190 facilities, with an estimated loss of UAH 900 m, belong to railway infrastructure situated in the territory of both oblasts. As can be seen in the consolidated table (page 6 and 7), 1230 housing buildings were damaged (667 in Luhansk and 563 in Donetsk oblasts), and this affected the shelter of 6,618 families (including 1,844 in Luhansk oblast and 4,774 in Donetsk oblast). Due to different limitations in determining the exact number of affected families, the real number of affected families is, most likely, of a greater scale than presented in this report. Indirectly (by worsened access to public services) the conflict in Donbass affected the majority of the 6,6 million population of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts. It is worth noting, that the report indicates another 1873 housing buildings damaged during the conflict, however no verification (geographical/address localization) was possible by the team of data collectors, and this number remained outside the main analysis in this paper.

It has steel and mining production facilities in Ukraine, EU and the US, as well as a sales network covering all key global markets. By a number of indicators, Metinvest is the largest private company of Ukraine, and it occupies the 13th place among the largest companies in Central and Eastern Europe - Deloitte TOP-500 by results of 2015. Metinvest is the largest in Ukraine and one of the largest CIS producers of iron ore raw materials and steel. Metinvest is in the top 50 largest steel companies in the world according to the World Steel Association. Reported 2015 was a difficult year for us, both in Ukraine and globally. The Ukrainian economy suffered a sharp contraction, exacerbated by the crisis in the east of the country. As such, I consider it a major achievement that we were able to restore and maintain production at all of our steel plants after the disruptions during 2014 and the first quarter of 2015. We should never forget the bravery and teamwork demonstrated by our employees and managers on the ground in Eastern Ukraine.
