Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3

Abstract

Health assessment of employees, as well as assessment of hygienic conditions was carried out at four meat processing enterprises in the Republic of Moldova during the 2011-2015. Indexes of frequency and duration of temporary disability were variables with a tendency to lowering. The index of diseases frequency showed an average annually decrease of 6.7 cases per 100 workers (R2=0,95), and the index of disease duration of 77 days per 100 workers (R2=0,95). The annual average increase of the mean disease duration with temporary incapacity per one case was 0.3 days. The occupational environment of the meat industry was characterized by a complex of unfavorable risk factors (microclimatic parameters, noise exposure), negatively influencing the workers? health. The morbidity features indicated the need to develop and to implement measures for improving the working conditions and reducing the impact of the occupational risk factors on health.
