Abstract

Introduction. Prevention of chronic non-communicable diseases, maintaining health and prolonging the occupational longevity of the working population is the most important strategic direction of the state policy of the Russian Federation in the field of public health

The purpose. Stratification of the occupational risk of developing chronic non-communicable diseases among workers in the production of bearings for the subsequent development of specialized targeted programs for the prevention of health disorders.

Material and methods. An assessment of the occupational risk of developing chronic non-communicable diseases among workers in the production of bearings is given on the basis of complex studies of production factors, primary and general chronic morbidity using the methodology for assessing occupational health risk.

Results. It has been established that the development of chronic non-infectious diseases in bearing production workers is determined by a complex of harmful (classes 3.2–3.4) factors of the working environment of various nature, which form an occupational health risk in categories from medium to very high. In the structure of the general chronic non-infectious morbidity of workers, diseases of the eye and its adnexa (24.4%), diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (20.7%), diseases of the circulatory system (19.32%) and diseases of the endocrine system had the highest prevalence in systems of eating disorders and metabolic disorders — 15.1%. A causal relationship of varying severity with the work of the most common nosological forms of chronic was revealed as arterial hypertension (RR = 1.425; EF = 29.837%; C = 1.044–1.945), obesity (RR = 1.731; EF = 42.24%; CI = 1.219–2.459), presbyopia (RR = 2.443; EF = 59.071%; CI = 1.549–3.855), indicating their occupational conditioning.

Limitations. The limitation of the study was the assessment of the occupational risk of developing chronic non-communicable diseases in one occupational cohort of workers.

Conclusion. The development of specialized programs for the prevention of chronic non-communicable diseases among workers should include the study of causal aspects of health disorders and the rationale for measures to minimize the impact of occupational risk factors for occupationally determined pathology.

Compliance with ethical standards. The study was approved by the local ethical committee of the Saratov Scientific Research Center for Hygiene, Saratov, Protocol No 3 dated 16.01.2023. All examined and signed an informed consent to participate in the study.
