Abstract
Taking into account the concept of professional aptitude formed in Russia and personal experience, the authors have developed algorithms for determining and examining the professional aptitude of workers in contact with chemical factors. The algorithms reflect domestic risk-based approaches to preserving the professional health of workers in harmful (dangerous) working conditions. As an example, an algorithm for determining and evaluating the professional suitability of workers in contact with lead is presented.
