ABSTRACT

Both monitoring of occupational hazards and assessment of healthy effects on VDT operators were made. The results showed that there were several occupational hazards in VDT,including insalubrious microclimate and air ion condition, lower illuminance, higher noise, some doses of x-radiation, and unfitting ergonomics. The healthy effects of the hazards of the VDT mainly involved the operator's nervous system, psychology and behavior, eyes, musculoskeletal system as well as the woman operator's menses and pregnancy, especially in the 18 to 25 age bracket who had more VDT work hours than that of the others, it suggested that the various preventive measures against the hazards of the VDT must be strengthened.
