    Abstract:
    Based on secondary statistical data, an analysis was made of health condition of vocational schools students remaining under medical care of industrial physicians in the Katowice province. Twenty-six thousand students schooled in 1985/86 and 1986/87 were examined. Six groups of schools were distinguished: mechanical, chemical, metallurgical, building and food processing. It was observed that 59% of students from the Katowice province vocational schools were healthy, 23% showed certain health disorders, and 18% remained under special observation. In the particular kinds of vocational schools percentage of students who did not need continual medical care varied between 47% in mechanical schools and 68% in building schools. The greatest number of students with health problems was found in mechanical schools (28%) and the smallest (17%)--in building and food processing schools.
