Abstract. Introduction. Currently, the preservation and strengthening of the health of the working population is one of the priority tasks of healthcare in the Russian Federation, including in the Samara region. Up to 39.7% of the able-bodied population of the country works in conditions that do not meet sanitary and hygienic requirements. Unsatisfactory working conditions are the main cause of the development of occupational diseases among the working population in the Samara region. Objective: to assess working conditions and occupational morbidity in the Samara region, the causes of low detection of occupational diseases. Methods: methods of sanitary and hygienic monitoring of working conditions at enterprises of the Samara region and statistical analysis of occupational morbidity were used in the work. Results: In the Samara region, when assessing working conditions at industrial enterprises, according to the data of the territorial department of Rospotrebnadzor, 76 (2.72%) objects from those under control were classified as extremely high risk objects, 287 (10.27%) high risk, 926 (33.14%) significant risk, 1236 (44.24%) medium risk, 265 (9.49%) moderate risk, 4 (0.14%) low risk. Unsatisfactory working conditions are the main cause of the development of occupational diseases. Thus, 451 cases of occupational diseases and poisoning have been registered in the Samara region over the past 3 years: in 2020 – 107 cases, of which women have 62 cases (57.94%), in 2019 – 128 cases, of which 47 cases in women (36.7%), in 2018 – 216 cases, of which 63 cases in women (29.2%). Conclusions: Working conditions at a significant number of enterprises in the Samara region do not meet sanitary and hygienic requirements. The state of conditions in the Samara region does not always reflect the levels of occupational morbidity at work, including due to the poor quality of periodic medical examinations. In the structure of nosological forms of occupational diseases in the Samara region in 2020, the first place is occupied by diseases associated with the effects of biological factors – 42.99% (including due to cases, including fatal cases of new coronavirus infection COVID-19 in medical workers), the second – physical factors (33.64%), the third – industrial aerosols (10.28%), the fourth – chemical factors (5.61%), the fifth place was occupied by diseases associated with physical overload and overstrain of individual organs and systems – 4.67%, on allergic diseases are in sixth place – 2.80%.

The analysis of occupational morbidity at the enterprises of the machine-building industry of the region is carried out. In recent years, there has been a sharp decrease in occupational diseases at machine-building enterprises. So, in 2015, 187 cases were established, which amounted to 68.2% of all established cases, in 2020 – only 2 cases (6.3%). The level of occupational morbidity does not reflect the true situation. Incomplete identification of patients with occupational pathology is associated with the negative attitude of the employer to the establishment of occupational diseases in employees, poor-quality certification of workplaces. Key words: occupational diseases, risk factors, working conditions, structure.

Special Assessment

Currently in healthcare of the Russian Federation created a system of measures to combat the harmful effects of industrial noise on workers. However, the level of specific and nonspecific morbidity rates the effect of industrial noise is not reduced, and the incidence of occupational diseases tends to increase. This is due to several reasons, including a large number of sources of noise, not enough high quality of medical examinations, lack of and low effectiveness of means of individual protection from noise and others. Noise is one of the leading places among the harmful physical factors in the Armed forces of the Russian Federation. Features noise resulting from the operation of military equipment and armament is its high intensity, intermittent nature, the presence in the spectrum of low and infrasonic frequencies. Noise exposure leads to the development of diseases, primarily of the organ of hearing, increase in total morbidity and the reduction of military-professional health. In the normative documents of the military medical service the noise is not identified as a harmful factor leading to the development of occupational diseases that were not fully developed the issues of professional selection and medical examination of noise pathology. System noise control should be comprehensive and include organizational and technical measures, special assessment of working conditions, monitoring of noise sources, the presence and correct application of means of protection against noise professional selection, clinical monitoring, medical examination, treatment and preventive measures. Existing in the Armed forces of the Russian Federation the system of measures for the fight against harmful impact of noise on military personnel requires revision in accordance with the existing state legislative framework.

In the Republic of Bashkortostan, in 2019, despite the deteriorating working conditions at workplaces in almost all industries, extremely low rates of occupational morbidity were observed. At the same time, almost every third employee of the surveyed types of economic activity is engaged in work with harmful and (or) dangerous working conditions. In total, 46 cases of occupational diseases were found in the Republic in 2019. The occupational morbidity rate was 0.42 per 10,000 employees (2018 — 0.32), which is significantly lower than in the Russian Federation (1.03 per 10,000 employees). The highest levels of occupational morbidity are registered in mining, manufacturing, healthcare, and agriculture. The structure of nosological forms of occupational diseases was dominated by diseases associated with physical overload and overstrain of individual organs and systems: sciatica of the lumbosacral level, polyneuropathy of the extremities and occupational diseases from the influence of physical factors: sensorineural hearing loss and vibration disease. Against the background of the continuing deterioration of working conditions in the Republic and the low quality of periodic medical examinations, extremely low rates of registered occupational diseases are observed.

Abstract. Working conditions have a significant impact on the health of the working population. In the Republic of Tatarstan (RT), there are still industries where unsatisfactory working conditions lead to a high risk of developing occupational diseases. The aim of the work was to assess the occupational morbidity (DI) in the Republic of Tatarstan of the structure, dynamics, main reasons and factors affecting its formation. The aim of the work was to assess the occupational morbidity (DI) in the Republic of Tatarstan of the structure, dynamics, main reasons and factors affecting its formation. The analysis was carried out on the basis of data from the Office of Rospotrebnadzor in the Republic of Tatarstan, the Center for Occupational Pathology, and Tatarstanstat. Results: The proportion of workers employed in harmful and (or) hazardous working conditions in the Republic of Tatarstan amounted to 47.9% -50.8% of the payroll number of the working population. PP indicators in the Republic of Tatarstan over the past 10 years are 1.39 - 1.88 per 10 thousand employees. The highest levels of PZ are recorded among agricultural workers - from 5.22 to 10.12 and manufacturing - from 3.46 to 7.41 cases per 10 thousand. The leading places are occupied by diseases associated with exposure to noise and vibration. The main share of the identified occupational diseases was registered in workers of working age (50-59 years) with over 30 years of work experience. Conclusion. During the analyzed period, the PP indicators in the Republic of Tajikistan remained higher or at the level of the PP in the Russian Federation (RF). The main share of occupational diseases was registered at aircraft and mechanical engineering enterprises. We associate the observed increase in the proportion of diseases with the loss of professional ability to work with the untimely referral of patients for examination, as well as their late appeal to the center of occupational pathology.

Introduction. The mining and metallurgical industries form the basis of the economy of the Murmansk Region. Working conditions at industrial enterprises, combined with extreme climatic conditions of the Arctic, pose an increased risk of occupational diseases. The purpose of the study was to investigate working conditions and occupational disease rates among industrial workers of the Murmansk Region in 2007–2017. Materials and methods. We studies socio-hygienic monitoring data on working conditions and occupational diseases in the population of the Murmansk Region in 2007-2017 provided by the Federal Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology of the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare, Moscow. Results. In 2008-2017, the most common occupational risk factors in the Murmansk Region included noise (25.8%), job strain (17.8%), and chemical factor (12.6%) while 39.2% of workers were exposed to a combination of occupational hazards. Over 10 years, the absolute number of workers exposed to dangerous and hazardous industrial factors decreased by 1.8 times. In the Murmansk Region, 84.3% of occupational disease cases were registered among workers of mining and metallurgical enterprises. In 2007-2017, the region experienced a significant decrease in occupational disease incidence mainly related to job cuts. The role of other factors (improvement of working conditions, health promotion) needs to be clarified; yet, it is possible to predict their positive influence on occupational morbidity in the next few years. Conclusion. To achieve a substantial decrease in occupational disease incidence rates, it is essential to keep improving comprehensive measures aimed at preserving workers’ health in the Murmansk Region.

Our analysis is based on the French DARES Working Conditions survey which contains a very large sample of individuals representative of the French working population. We demonstrate that employees working in the cleaning sector report significantly higher levels of satisfaction than the other employees. This statistical result is robust; it persists when we introduce a large number of control variables. This result is puzzling insofar as it is generally agreed that these workers hold ‘poor quality’ jobs: low pay, an abnormal pattern of work, arduous working conditions. We suggest that cleaners’ expectations and standards are influenced by an adaptation process. Their job satisfaction needs to be considered in the light of their past experience. Their employment history shapes their wants and needs and thus affects the way they evaluate their work.

To identify the main 50-year trends in evolution of working conditions at dust-hazardous enterprises in Western Siberia, the sanitary and hygienic characteristics of working conditions of staff with suspected occupational diseases, issued by the regional offices of The Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Wellbeing (Rospotrebnadzor) to 447 patients with pneumoconiosis diagnosed from 1960 to 2010 were analyzed, as well as a retrospective analysis of the dynamics of changes in working conditions according to the research reports of the Novosibirsk Research Institute of Hygiene for the period 1930–1960 was made. In the 1950s the most harmful silicotic working conditions were observed in sandblasters exposed to newly formed modifications of silica in concentrations of 20–340 mg/m3. Since the 1970s, industrial enterprises in Novosibirsk and the Novosibirsk Region have experienced a significant decrease in dustiness levels (by tens and hundreds of times) — up to 4–40 mg/m3. In the last decade of the XX century, at a number of enterprises, the volume of production and the overall working time, during which there was direct contact with industrial aerosols, decreased, and the proportion of 3.4 class working conditions over the last decade decreased by 2.49 times (p ≤ 0.001). There was a change in working conditions for the production of refractory materials and ceramic products. Electric welders with all types of manual welding were exposed to a combined effect of hazardous occupational factors without significant changes in the levels of industrial aerosols in the workplace.
