The article contains a theoretical and methodological analysis of the problems of making mistakes in professional activities. The main stages in the historical analysis of the problem of erroneous actions and the factors causing those have been highlighted. The relevance of the topic is determined by the need to study the ways to improve the professional reliability of pyrotechnics of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.
