Description
Summary:An investigation has been carried out with the aim to reveal the main causes of temporary disability, invalidism and mortality of Siberian Chemical Combinat (SCC) workers. There has been made an analysis of medical statistics data of the Central health department No 81 for the period of 1951-2001 and of results of psychophysiologic examination of workers in SCC nuclear- and radiation-hazardous areas. Investigations have revealed that a radical (up to isolated instances) decrease of professional pathology occurrence caused by radiation and harmful chemical substance influence had taken place within 50 years of SCC functioning. Today psychosomatic disorders are the main cause of temporary disability, invalidism and mortality of nuclear- and radiation-hazardous plant workers. Psychosomatic disorders occurrence and economic loss connected with it allow to specify the psychophysiologic support laboratories work on revelation and correction of inadaptation states at atomic industry workers as priority.
