Abstract
We examine the current state and main trends of crimes in the field of fire safety. The purpose of the study is to consider the features of the current state and the main trends of crimes in the field of fire safety. Research objectives are analysis of legislation regulating the current state in the field of fire safety. Methodological basis of the research are normative analysis and formal legal approach. We show that today there is a decrease in the number of crimes detected by the State Fire Supervision authorities, as well as that there are both periods of significant reduction and a significant increase in the number of crimes investigated. The researchers divide the entire set of causes of crimes in the field of fire safety into four groups: self-interest and other personal interests of persons responsible for compliance with the requirements and standards of fire safety; personal inattention, carelessness of individuals; corruption and official-official factor; personal reasons. We conclude that there are a number of trends in crime related to fire safety, which the researchers refer to: gradual decrease in the number of detected crimes; uneven distribution of the level of investigated crimes in the field of fire safety; distribution of detected crimes depending on the severity.
