[Medical examinations of workers in the artificial leather plant in 1975-1980].

The studies of general morbidity rate and that related to circulatory, respiratory and alimentary systems covered altogether 232 subjects, in this: 151 men and 81 women. The population was evaluated taking into account: exposure factors, age, employment duration, magnitude of exposure to chemical hazards, expressed by MAC excess. The percentage indices of analysed parameters registered in the first and fourth examinations, carried out at an interval of five years, were compared. Increased general morbidity rate in men occupationally exposed to chemical hazards was found, which was particularly due to increased cardiovascular diseases rate. Women exposed to chemical hazards revealed increased morbidity rate due to alimentary tract diseases.
