    Abstract:
    The work in textile industry is a risk factor of the development of chronic non-specific diseases of the respiratory tract. Thus the vocational selection for the posts in this industry should particularly take into account the health status of the applying youths. The subjects of the study were 35 girls from Textile Technical College and 42 girls from Grammar School (control group). The girls were examined three times in the succeeding school years. Anthropometric and spirometric examinations were performed. No significant differences between the values of ventilation parameters in both the groups were observed, which indicates that the selection of pupils admitted to the Technical College was proper. During the period of professional training no adverse effects of the industrial environment on the respiratory function could be found either.
