Abstract	The objective of the present work is to develop recommendations for controlling the safety of nuclear power plants on the basis of risk assessments and safety certification of nuclear power plants. The Kursk nuclear power plant is considered as an example of a nuclear power plant with an RBMK reactor. The concept of risk assessment of a nuclear power plant consists in constructing a set of scenarios of the appearance and development of possible accidents followed by an evaluation of the realization frequency and determination of the scales of the consequences of each one. The result of an analysis is an evaluation of a system of risk indicators in accordance with the requirements of the safety compliance certificate of the nuclear power plant as well as the development of recommendations for increasing plant safety. In risk assessment, the consequences are divided into categories of the seriousness of the damage, for which their probability is evaluated separately. The graphical interpretation of risk due to any dangerous object consists of frequency–consequences curves. Recommendations are developed on the basis of the results of risk analysis.
