Abstract
Work conditions of drivers are characterized by combined exposure to occupational factors: noise, local and general vibration, unfavorable microclimate, chemical hazards, work intensity and hardiness. The study revealed regional cities where most workplaces in automobile transport enterprises do not correspond to hygienic norm Findings are that level of occupational morbidity of drivers in the region 3 times exceeds the general one in Russia. Main causes of occupational diseases in drivers are constructional drawbacks of cars and mechanisms (57%), and flaws in technologic process (36%). Based on autocorrelation analysis, the authors received a linear trend demonstrating tendency to increased level of occupational diseases in this sphere over 2008–2015. The maximal risk of occupational diseases is associated with workers aged over 50, and with length of service over 20 year In the occupational diseases structure, locomotory disorders (44%) prevailed. The study results were used for risk-oriented direction in Rospotrebnadzor activity.
