  • Title: [Physical work capacity of women performing light and moderate tasks].
    Author: Gadzicka E, Makowiec-Dabrowska T, Rózalska E.
    Journal: Med Pr; 1987; 38(3):224-8. PubMed ID: 3670046.
    Abstract:
    The studies have been aimed at answering the question whether or not a slight difference in the energetic and physiologic expenditure of work performed for many years affects the level of workers' physical fitness. A hundred women performing light (seamstresses) and moderate (formers) work have been examined. The physical fitness has been determined by a submaximum effort test. It seems that a work that only slightly exceeds the moderate and light work limits when added to everyday non-occupational tasks, results in reduced fitness.
