Abstract in different language:	One of the top priorities of any company is to solve problems related to occupational safety. Significant investments are made to reduce work-related risks, including training employees in safety procedures. Today, technological advances and the widespread adoption of visual technology offer an exciting opportunity to improve the quality of workplace safety training. One technology that is gaining significant acceptance in the safety field, and which can offer a number of advantages over traditional training programs, is virtual reality. Virtual reality provides companies with the ability to train employees on safety procedures and risk situations in a safe and controlled environment, which could reduce costs and also enhance the effectiveness of training. The rapid evolution of technology has caused newer, cheaper and more universal virtual reality goggles to create new opportunities for the use of this technology in many industries, from construction to healthcare, mining to chemical industries. This paper analyses the current published academic literature reporting on the use of virtual reality in occupational safety and attempts to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages that arise from the use of this technology in this particular area of employee training. It also identifies and analyses the areas in which the use of virtual reality for occupational safety and health is most frequently investigated.
