Abstract

The authors evaluated work conditions and occupational morbidity in glass fiber production workers. Operators of continuous glass fiber production are exposed to combined influence of intense noise, unfavorable microclimate and chemicals incorporated into greasers and released into air of workplace. Overall class of work conditions is assessed as hazardous (class 3.3) - that corresponds to high category of occupational risk. Occupational hyperkeratosis appear in the operators with length of service averaging 12.6 ± 2.4 years with highly probable malignization during 5-8 years. Association of polymorph variants of TP53 (Ex4+119G>C, IVS3 16 bp Del/Ins and IVS6+62A>G) with increased risk of occupational skin neoplasms was demonstrated.
