RESUMO
The retrospective assessment of morbidity rates and cancer pathology risks in workers of asbestosis-cement enterprises of Ukraine has been made. It was established that annual cancer morbidity among workers makes 88,1 per 100 000 of workers (RR = 0.26, CI 95 % 0.06-1.01). The most often cancer pathology was located in digestive organs (48.1%), respiratory organs (18.5%) (lung cancer--11.1%). The mesothelioma of pleura, peritoneum and pericardium were not found. The risks (odds ratio--OR) of cancer morbidity were increased for such organs as: respiratory organs (OR = 2.37), skin (OR = 1.78), digestive organs (OR = 1.34).

Work conditions of women engaged into crop-raising and animal husbandry are characterized by variable complex of occupational physical, chemical and biologic hazards caused by the production specificity. The latter results in increased prevalence of chronic somatic diseases and reproductive disorders (menstrual dysfunction, higher incidence of miscarriage, etc.). Further dynamic research based on multifactorial approach are required to study health state of rural population.

A retrospective analysis was carried out of failure for a woman to be delivered of a child at the natural time in those female workers engaged in agricultural production in controlled territories of Ukraine (Narodichi and Ovruch districts of Zhytomir Province). Data files were studied of 5371 histories of labor (2440 those before and 2931 after the Chernobyl accident) and 525 records of spontaneous abortion (255 those before and 27 after the ChNPP breakdown). There has been found relationship between the frequency of incomplete pregnancies and density of contamination of soil with cesium-137 in certain settlements.

Weight, tension and harmfulness of professional activity, peculiarities of labour conditions and characteristics of work, shift dynamics of operative personnel's working capacity were studied in the course of 8-hour working day currently accepted at hydroelectric power stations (HEPS) and experimental 12-hour schedule. Working conditions classified as "admissible", positive dynamics of operators' state, their social and material contentment were a basis for 12-hour two-shift schedule to be recommended as more appropriate. At the same time, problem of optimal shift schedules for operative personnel of HEPS remains unsolved and needs to be further explored.

Conditions and character of labour of women working in revolver production are determined by exposure to noise, contact with cooling oils, static field, monotony, hypodynamics, tension of the visual analyser, which leads to the stress of the functional systems of the organism, development of fatigue, decrease in labour productivity, increased morbidity level with temporary loss of capacity for work. A complex of health-improving measures on normalization of occupational factors, rationalization of labour and rest regimen, implementation of which would promote increase in the capacity for work of women engaged in revolver production.
