[Morbidity with temproary work loss among miners and engineering-technical personnel in the iron ore industry].

The influence of industrial-occupational and social-hygienic factors (vocation, age, underground and continuous service record, per capita income, nutrition) on the level of temporary incapacitation and also on the dynamics and structure of the disease incidence among average annually engaged and regular miners in ore-mining industry was studied. The use of multifactor correlation and regression analysis and of the Bayes probability method helped establish the dependence of the temporary incapacitation level on the age, occupational activities, continuous service record, family composition, education and per capita income. The administration and social bodies of the mine in concerd with medical workers have on the ground of the present investigation outlined ways and means for implementation of measures aimed at consolidating the health status of workers.
