Air pollution poses a significant global threat to the environmental safety. In particular, the
air pollution provokes the most comprehensive and negative impact on cities of the Republic
of Kazakhstan. This research study focuses on the main atmospheric contaminants and
sources of pollution in Almaty city. Moreover, the paper shows a relationship of population
diseases with the air pollution of the urban environment. In this regard, the research study
proposes a methodology for calculating the index of the environmental safety level for human
health under conditions of the air pollution. The probabilistic methods of risk assessment on
the basis of analytical method and the method of analogies are applied in this paper in order
to calculate the index of the environmental safety for human health. Medical and
demographic indicators from the national statistical and demographic yearbooks of the
Republic of Kazakhstan were used as the indicators. Calculations on the example of Almaty
city confirmed the official data on the critical status of the environmental safety on public
health. In this regard, in order to achieve decreasing the level of air pollution in Almaty, the
authors proposed recommendations.
