  • Title: [The working conditions and morbidity with temporary loss of work capacity for those engaged in the manufacture of household chemical preparations].
    Author: Amirov NKh, Khamitova RIa.
    Journal: Gig Tr Prof Zabol; 1992; (3):26-8. PubMed ID: 1427316.
    Abstract:
    Workers engaged in production of household chemical goods (paints, synthetic detergents, aerosols) are exposed to harmful factors (noise levels higher than the maximal allowable ones, concentration of chemical agents in the air surpassing the MACs). Such work conditions are estimated as unfavourable according to the hygienic classification. The total morbidity and some nosologic forms (respiratory, digestive, locomotor systems and skin) are growing in number especially in workers of aerosol production. Statistic analysis revealed that the length of service was directly related to the level of total morbidity and the incidence of gastrointestinal diseases in the workers engaged in manufacture of household chemical goods.
