Премьер-министр Владимир Путин об охране труда
Особое внимание Владимир Путин обратил на необходимость увеличения расходов на охрану труда.
«Легче и дешевле вкладывать деньги в обеспечение безопасности труда, чем в ликвидацию последствий тех трагедий, которые могут произойти или происходят в результате невнимательного отношения к этим проблемам»
