Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the application of agent-based quantitative risk assessment with а fundamental review of public attitudes towards firefighting, a qualitative increase in the level of community responsibility for security. This is the goal that must be set, involving volunteers for their self-organization in matters of fire suppression. Involving volunteers in the task of preventing and eliminating fires will be more effective and will have a more productive result. This will minimize the time of arrival of the first fire-fighting unit to a place of fire or emergency, especially in the countryside. In addition, local, communal, volunteer organizations need to be widely involved in significantly enhancing the culture of safety among people, awareness and responsibility, and improving their personal skills and ability to work in extreme situations. The process of improving the existing system of supervision over control in the field of fire and technological safety, fire prevention and emergency systems is essential. This would be part of the reform of the State Service of Ukraine for Emergency Situations. Thus, the assessment of compliance with the level of safety in the local communities, the implementation or use of objects with a high degree of risk, which could endanger the consumer, is classified by the legislation of Ukraine to the legislatively regulated sphere and is mandatory.
