Studies performed at an open-pit mine in the Karaganda Region showed that excavator operators were exposed to the complex action of vibration, noise, unfavourable microclimate and dust in the parameters exceeding the existing norms. A comparative analysis of the levels of morbidity with temporary disability and the actual occupational conditions proved the latters' influence on the morbidity rate, particularly in case with diseases caused by respiratory infections, spinal disorders (radiculitis, lumbago), blood circulation dysfunctions, all of which should be attributed to occupationally conditioned ailments. Hygienic and preventive measures, with due account of specific groups of diseases, can considerably improve the workers' health status and decrease morbidity with temporary disability rates.
在卡拉干达地区一个露天矿场进行的研究表明，挖掘机操作员受到振动、噪音、不利微气候和粉尘的综合影响，其参数超过了现有标准。对临时残疾发病率水平与实际职业条件进行的比较分析证明了后者对发病率的影响，特别是在由呼吸道感染、脊柱疾病（神经根炎、腰痛）、血液循环功能障碍引起的疾病方面，所有这些都应归因于职业性疾病。考虑到特定疾病群体的卫生和预防措施，可以显著改善工人的健康状况，并降低临时残疾率的发病率。
