HYGIENIC SUBSTANTIATION OF WORKING CONDITIONS OF WORKERS DEVELOPING VEGETABLES UNDER THE OPEN SOIL CONDITIONS

Abstract

In this article, the purpose of the study is a hygienic assessment of the working conditions of workers engaged in the cultivation of vegetables in open ground. It has been established that when growing vegetables workers can be affected by such production factors as high physical activity, dust, noise, vibration, carbon monoxide, summer insola­tion, relatively low temperatures in the autumn-winter period, vapors and gases of mineral fertilizers and pesticides. In this regard, sanitary inspection of the working conditions of vegetable growers should be carried out taking into ac­count the specific features of the cultivation of vegetable crops.
