Results of the study of a mixed effect of workplace hazards on the state of health in mechanical engineering workers

Abstract

The necessity of studying qualitative and quantitative characteristics of a complex of workplace factors of modern mechanical engineering is substantiated. A potential possibility of a mixed effect of chemical and physical hazards on the workers’ organism is found out. Higher levels of MTD, which can be caused by reduced adaptive abilities of the workers’ organism, serve as the criterion for an unfavorable influence of a complex of workplace hazards (chemical pollutants, noise, vibration, electromagnetic fields, hard and strenuous work).
