Abstract

The article points out the typical elements of the fire safety system and the mechanisms for regulating the provision of fire safety in railway transport. A list of legislation acts is given. They are an information-documentary and regulatory framework used to control the fire safety condition. An analysis of the main causes of fires at railway enterprises is briefly reviewed. It has been established that there are flaws in the system of legislative regulation of fire safety, in particular, an excessive number of outdated laws and regulations for fire safety issues, inconsistency of domestic practices with the standards and regulations of the European Union and international institutions. The main regulatory acts for fire safety issues were analyzed. The legislative and technical issues in the field of fire safety were assessed.
