  • Title: [The burden and tension of labor in miners and the age structure of workers].
    Author: Maksimov SA.
    Journal: Gig Sanit; 2010; (6):40-3. PubMed ID: 21381362.
    Abstract:
    By examining 7558 miners from 5 Kuzbass collieries, the author considered the impact of the burden and tension of labor on the workers' age structure. Particular emphasis is laid on over-50-year-olds regarded as persons with natural age-related decreased working capacity and, possibly, labor ability. The maximally pronounced decrease in the proportion of over-50-year-olds was observed in the occupations characterized by the high burden of labor and its combination with its high tension. This was not seen when the labor showed a high tension in combination with low work burden.
