The article describes the prerequisites for creating an automated system for planning measures to prevent occupational injuries at machine-building enterprises. The results of a study of occupational injuries based on statistical data depending on the employee’s experience, gender, working conditions, days of the week and month are given for the leading machine-building enterprises. The research of  the influence of technical and economic indices of  machine-building enterprises  of  the  Western region of Ukraine on industrial injuries is described. It has been established that out  of all significant technical and economic indicators of machine-building enterprises, only 3 factors significantly impact the level of occupational injuries: stock armament, energy armament, and occupational health and safety costs. The practical value of research results is to  adjust  plans to prevent injuries, taking into account situations with the highest probability  of employee  emergencies. Further research will develop and implement an automated system for planning injuries at the machine-building enterprise.
