Opis:
Four hundred million adults are obese. Such a pandemic involves people of working age. Excess weight imposes abnormal mechanics on body movements, which could account for the high incidence of musculoskeletal disorders in these subjects. This article reviews the physiological and biomechanical causes of the reduced work capacity in obese workers and speculates on the relationships between occupational exposure and obesity. The reduction in work capacity appears to be due to the following factors: reduced spine flexibility, decay in endurance, limited range of movement of the major joints, reduced muscle strength and capacity to hold prolonged fixed postures, impaired respiratory capacity and visual control. Work capacity in morbidly obese workers should always be evaluated to match specific job demands. Due to the relationship between obesity, musculoskeletal disorders, disability and health costs, prevention of obesity and ergonomic interventions on-site are a priority in the work place.

Opis:
Objectives Only a few studies have been undertaken to analyze the dietary habits of people with cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the dietary behaviors of working people who were hospitalized due to experiencing the first acute cardiovascular incident. Material and Methods In the study, the Functional Activity Questionnaire was used. The study was conducted in 2 groups. The first group included all the men hospitalized during 1 year (January–December 2009) in 2 clinics of cardiology, who were professionally active until the first myocardial infarction (MI). It comprised 243 men aged 26–70 years. The reference group consisted of 403 men, blue- and white-collar workers, aged 35–65 years. Results The body mass index of the MI patients was significantly higher (p = 0.006). The frequency of consumption of particular products in the MI group and in the reference group differed significantly for 11 of 21 products. The MI patients significantly less frequently reported the daily consumption of fruit, raw vegetables, cheese, vegetable oils and fish. In this group, the consumption of salty (p = 0.0226) or fatty (p < 0.0001) foods was significantly higher. It was shown that, after adjusting for age, education and the type of work, the daily consumption of fish, salads and cooked vegetables, as well as fruit and vegetable oils, significantly reduced the risk of myocardial infarction. An increased MI risk was, in turn, associated with obesity and preference for fatty foods. Conclusions The authors found that diet significantly modified the MI risk in the examined workers. This indicates that an important aspect of prevention activities among working people should involve education about proper dietary habits. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2019;32(6):853–63

Opis:
The first objective of this paper is to compare the observation procedures proposed to characterize physical work. The second objective is to examine the following 3 methodological issues: reliability, observer training, and internal validity. Seventy-two papers were reviewed, 38 of which proposed a new or modified observation grid. The observation variables identified were broken down into 7 categories as follows: posture, exertion, load handled, work environment, use of feet, use of hands, and activities or tasks performed. The review revealed the variability of existing procedures. The examination of methodological issues showed that observation data can be reliable and can present an adequate internal validity. However, little information about the conditions necessary to achieve good reliability was available.

Opis:
Współczesne badania wskazują na brak pozytywnego wpływu na zdrowie dużych obciążeń fizycznych w pracy zawodowej, zwłaszcza w połączeniu z deficytem aktywności fizycznej rekreacyjnej w czasie wolnym od pracy. Kobiety, ze względu na uwarunkowania fizjologiczne, nie są w stanie wykonywać wszystkich czynności w pracy na równi z mężczyznami. Dotyczy to zwłaszcza prac związanych z wysiłkiem fizycznym i transportem ciężarów oraz wymuszoną pozycją ciała. W przypadku kobiet starszych, oprócz fizjologicznych różnic podyktowanych płcią, dochodzą zmiany funkcjonalne zachodzące w organizmie ludzkim wraz z wiekiem, które również istotnie obniżają możliwość wykonywania pracy fizycznej. Lekceważenie przez pracodawców problemu ciężkiej pracy fizycznej prowadzi do niekorzystnych skutków, zarówno dla pracowników, jak i dla firmy. Nadmierne obciążenie i związane z nim zmęczenie pracownika jest przyczyną gorszej jakości i wydajności pracy oraz zwiększenia absencji chorobowej. Dlatego oczywista wydaje się konieczność dostosowywania stanowisk i warunków pracy do potrzeb pracownic fizycznych w starszym wieku.
Contemporary studies indicate the lack of a positive impact of high physical effort in professional work on health, especially in connection with the deficit of recreational physical activity during leisure time. Women, due to physiological conditions, are not able to perform all activities at work equally with men. This applies in particular to work related to physical effort, transport of weights and forced body position. In the case of older women, apart from the physiological differences dictated by gender, functional changes occurring in the ageing human body, which also significantly reduce the ability to perform physical work, are added. The problem of employers disregarding hard physical labour leads to adverse effects for both them and their companies. Excessive work toad and, associated with it, fatigue of employees result in inferior quality and work efficiency and the increase in sick leave due to ailments and illnesses. Therefore, it seems obvious to adapt the work station and working conditions to the needs of older women that perform physical work.

Opis:
Physical activity is an inseparable sphere of human life, and is not rarely associated with work. Evolution has adapted man to perform various activities that meet their life needs. Man is created for walking, sitting, lying and standing. All these activities should take place in turns. Physical work should be varied in terms of dynamics and not limit people to stay in one position while performing work. The position changes, among others, to increase blood pressure, in addition, stimulates the heart and respiratory sys-tem, as well as improves the efficiency of both physical and mental work. In turn, taking only one position for a long time, which often occurs in static physical work, causes many health problems. For musculoskeletal disorders related to a non-ergonomic work position and a forced position at work, every fourth employee in Europe complains. In Poland, musculoskeletal disorders are one of the most common causes of absence at work. In Polish enterprises, the assumption that profit is the most important is still dominant. Man is rarely seen as the most important capital of an enterprise that needs to be taken care of. For many employers, all additional measures related to shaping safe working conditions are only costs, not investment and potential profit. This paper presents the effects of static physical work in relation to work safety in the light of publicly available reports and information. The review has been enriched with the results of research carried out in one of the production enterprises of the SMEs sector. The re-search results presented in the paper are pilot and constitute an introduction to a large research work.

Opis:
Back pains constitute a civilization-related disease and a true social calamity. Together with headaches, back pains represent the most common pain syndromes reported by patients to physicians of various specializations 60-90% of people experience a single episode of pain at least once in a lifetime. The scope of the study was to determine the frequency and types of back pains related to the performance of work in a hard coal mine. Material and methodology: The study included 417 employees and consisted in surveying, data collection, medical examinations and additional tests. The study was conducted in the work environment of a modern company, highly- mechanized, with good standing and job security. In view of this, it was assumed that the employees have equal standards of living and are not exposed to the impact of psychological and social factors on the incidence of back pains. The type and duration of the treatment was also considered in the study, as well as possible return of employees to the same work stand. Results: The frequency of the occurrence of back pains corresponds to the level of load on the spine, age and work experience in employees under 50, with 11-15 years of work experience, and then it falls. localized pain was found in 49.2% of the tested miners, stretch signs in 14%. In the younger miners group 83.6% work underground, and 76.3% perform works involving substantial load on the spine; in the older miners group it is only 5.4%. 3.4% of all tested miners changed their work-stand, and 0.6% took advantage of the disability benefits. Conclusions: The relation between the occurrence of back pains and age was confirmed. The relation between years of work experience in mining and increased prevalence of spinalgia was not documented. The determination of the ergonomics of the work-stand is required for further investigation of this relation.
Bóle krzyża to choroba cywilizacyjna i prawdziwa plaga społeczna. Obok bólów głowy stanowią one najczęstszy zespół bólowy, z jakim pacjenci zgłaszają się do lekarzy różnych specjalności. Pojedynczy epizod zdarza się przynajmniej raz w życiu u 60-90% ludzi. Celem pracy było określenie częstości i rodzaju występowania dolegliwości bólowych kręgosłupa powiązanych z wykonywaniem pracy w kopalni węgla kamiennego. Materiał i metodyka: Badanie przeprowadzono wśród 417 pracowników kopalni, obejmowało badania: ankietowe (zbieranie danych), kliniczne oraz dodatkowe. Przeprowadzono je w środowisku pracowników nowoczesnego zakładu o wysokim stopniu mechanizacji i stabilnej pozycji, gwarantującej stałą pracę. Pozwoliło to przyjąć założenie, że pracownicy mają wyrównane warunki socjalno-bytowe i nie podlegają wpływowi czynników psychiczno-społecznych na częstość występowania bólów krzyża. Wzięto pod uwagę rodzaj i czas leczenia, a także ewentualny powrót na dotychczasowe stanowisko pracy. Wyniki: Częstość występowania bólów krzyża koreluje ze stopniem jego obciążenia, wiekiem (do 50. roku życia) i stażem pracy (11-15 lat), a potem spada. Wykazano występowanie objawów miejscowych (49,2%) i rozciągowych (14%). Wśród młodszych górników 83,6% zatrudnionych jest pod ziemią, z czego 76,3% wykonuje pracę ze znacznym obciążeniem kręgosłupa, wśród starszych – 5,4%. Stanowisko pracy zmieniło 3,4% pracowników, a 0,6% korzystało ze świadczeń rentowych. Wnioski: Potwierdzono zależność pomiędzy występowaniem bólów kręgosłupa a wiekiem badanych. Nie udokumentowano zależności między stażem pracy w górnictwie a zwiększeniem zachorowalności na zespoły bólowe kręgosłupa. Ustalenie tej zależności wymaga określenia ergonomii stanowiska pracy.

Opis:
The objective of the research was to determine the effect of mental load on the physical capacity of an individual. An experiment involving 9 combinations of lifting tasks, 1 lowering task, and 3 treadmill tasks was conducted. Heart rate was measured and maximum acceptable weight of lift was determined using the psychophysical method. A simple multiplication task was used as the mental load. The output variables were determined with and without the mental task. The results indicate that the individual’s physical capacity decreased with the mental task while lifting from floor to knuckle and shoulder to reach lifting heights.

Opis:
Izolacja skazanego za murami więziennymi poza ochroną społeczeństwa, może stanowić dla niego samego szansę na resocjalizację i podłoże do wewnętrznego rozwoju. Sprzyjają temu rozmaite programy realizowane na terenie placówek penitencjarnych. Szeroko pojęta terapia zajęciowa umożliwia wyrażanie emocji, uczuć często skrywanych latami. Więźniowie biorąc udział w zajęciach teatralnych, plastycznych, technicznych ukazują siebie i rozwijają talenty, które w wielu przypadkach ujawniają się w wyraźny sposób właśnie w warunkach izolacji. Praca na rzecz innych pozwala kształtować zachowania prospołeczne, empatyczny stosunek do drugiego człowieka. W artykule zaprezentowano dobre praktyki realizowane w Zakładzie Karnym w Białymstoku. Praca z więźniami w ramach projektu „Agresji mówię NIE!” umożliwia poznanie tego środowiska, ciekawych przedsięwzięć z zakresu terapii zajęciowej. Więźniowie m.in. tworzą spektakle teatralne, wykonują ozdoby świąteczne na rzecz podopiecznych Stowarzyszenia „Droga”, pracują w terenie usuwając szkody po nawałnicach. Warto wzorować się na dobrych praktykach, albowiem skierowane są one do człowieka, w którego warto inwestować.
Isolation in prison, apart from protection of the society against the prisoner, for the convict himself may give a chance for social rehabilitation and form grounds for personal development. It is facilitated by various programmes implemented in penitentiary institutions. A broadly understood occupational therapy enables them to express their emotions and feelings, often concealed for many years. Prisoners who take part in drama, plastic art and technology classes express themselves and develop their talents, which, in many cases become revealed only in isolation. Work for others allows to develop prosocial behaviours and an emphatic attitude to others. In this article I present good practices implemented in the Penal Institution in Bialystok. Work with prisoners within the frameworks of the project “Say NO to Aggression!” has enabled me to get acquainted with this community and observe many interesting undertakings in the field of occupational therapy. Prisoners, for example, prepare theatre shows, make Christmas or Easter decorations for the “Droga” Association, work outdoor doing repair works to remove damages caused by natural disasters. I am sharing such observations with the readers of my article. Such good practices should be followed as they are targeted at people who are worth investing in.

Opis:
W badaniach podjęto próbę określenie wpływu rodzaju czynności fizycznej związanej pracą warsztatową na wielkość i strukturę statycznego obciążenia układu mięśniowo szkieletowego człowieka pracą. Na podstawie analizy poklatkowej dokonano analizy zmian posturalnych pracowników. Obciążenie układu mięśniowo szkieletowego pracownika określono metodą OWAS (Ovako Working Posture Analysis System). Stwierdzono, że we wszystkich przeanalizowanych przypadkach pracy fizycznej, pozycje ułożenia poszczególnych elementów ciała były wymuszone, ze względu na charakter wykonywanych czynności. Postawę pozycji ciała pracowników warsztatowych w czasie pracy w zdecydowanej większości można zakwalifikować do pierwszej i drugiej kategorii obciążenia. Stwierdzono, że nie ma konieczności nagłych zmian na stanowisku pracy, lecz należy wziąć pod uwagę ich konieczność w niedalekiej przyszłości. Oszacowane metodą OWAS obciążenie pracą statyczną klasyfikowane jest od średniego do dużego.
In the thesis it was attempted to determine the influence of type of physical job in a workshop on the size and structure of static musculoskeletal load of the employees. Their postural changes were analyzed on the basis of the stopmotion analysis. Musculoskeletal load of the workers was determined with OWAS (Ovako Working Posture Analysis System) method. It was found that the arrangement of individual body parts was forced in every physical job position under the analysis, as a result of the job nature. The workshop employees posture during their work can be classified mostly as first or second load category posture. It was found that there is no necessity of urgent changes concerning the job positions but it must be considered in the near future. The static work load as assessed with OWAS method is medium or high.

Opis:
Healthcare workers, especially those with direct patient contact are amongst professions with the highest rate of workrelated musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), physical therapists (PTs) being one of them. Our objective was to review current knowledge relating to the prevalence, risk factors and prevention of WMSDs among PTs. Pubmed, Google Scholar and PEDro databases were searched for terms relating to WMSDs in PTs from inception to 2015. The prevalence of WMSDs among PTs was high, with lifetime prevalence reported as 55–91%, and 12-month prevalence ranges 40–91.3%, and the lower back as the most frequently affected, with estimates of a lifetime prevalence ranging 26–79.6%, and a 12-month prevalence ranging 22–73.1%, followed most often by the neck, upper back and shoulders. The major risk factors for workrelated low back pain (LBP) were: lifting, transferring, repetitive movements, awkward and static postures, physical load, treating a large number of patients in a single day and working while injured. Low back pain seems to be age- and genderrelated with a higher prevalence in females, younger PTs and PTs working in rehabilitation settings. Physical therapists, as a consequence of work-related LBP, may seek treatment, modify their daily living and leisure (lifestyle) activities, use aids and equipment or change their specialty area either within the profession or by leaving it. Skills and knowledge as to correct body mechanics do not prevent work-related injuries. Mechanical aids used for a patient transfer should be adopted by PTs and new strategies should be developed to reduce their WMSDs without compromising the quality of treatment.

Objectives This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSD) in nurses, and to explore the association of work style and physical exercise with WMSD in this professional group. Material and Methods In this study, a cross-sectional survey design was applied. A questionnaire survey was conducted on 692 nurses in 5 municipal hospitals, in the period August–October 2015. The survey included personal information, lifestyle, physical exercise and symptoms of WMSD. Chi² test and logistic regression were used to identify the risk factors of WMSD. Results The prevalence of WMSD was 84% in all parts of the body in the previous year, with the highest prevalence in the neck (68.2%), followed by waist (67.6%) and shoulder (54.6%). Both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that physical exercise, night shifts and staying up late were associated with WMSD in nurses. The lack of exercise, night shifts and a tendency to stay up significantly increased the risk of WMSD (p < 0.05). Conclusions The prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders among the municipal hospital nursing staff is high. An elevated risk of WMSD is observed in nurses who do not do exercises, work shifts and stay up late. Int J Occup Med Environ Health. 2019;32(1):15–24

Background: The appropriate level of physical activity according to WHO recommendations for adults aged 18–64 years is 150 minutes per week in multiple shorter bouts of at least 10 minutes each: e.g., 30 minutes of moderateintensity activity 5 times per week. Regular physical activity is essential for health and well-being at any age. Many studies conducted among residents of the Silesian province have confirmed that their physical activity is insufficient. Data from a survey conducted in 2004 by the Central Statistical Office of Poland showed that the surveyed residents of the Silesian province older than 15 years of age spent their leisure time mostly in a passive way, or took activities not requiring intense physical effort. Therefore, we undertook a study evaluating physical activity in a selected group of white-collar workers who spent most of the time during the day in a seated position. Objective of the study: The objective of the study was to evaluate various forms of physical activity undertaken by white-collar workers. Material and methods: In the project, a questionnaire survey was conducted in a selected group of white-collar workers which consisted of employees of the City Office of Sosnowiec. A total of 191 persons took part in the survey: 57 (29.8%) men and 134 (70.2%) women. Survey questions concerned different forms of physical activity taken by white-collar workers. Results: Physical activity in the study group of whitecollar workers varied significantly depending on the gender. Males more willingly engaged in various forms of sports activity than women. Men were found to jog, play ball games and tennis, and exercise in the gym more readily than women. However, women reported taking walks, exercising, or riding on rollers significantly more often than men. The activity of women was associated with housework, such as cleaning, doing laundry, shopping, or cooking, to a greater extent than that of men. Men more often than women travelled by car, and this difference was statistically significant. By contrast, women more often than men travelled to work on foot or by public transport. Conclusions: The majority of respondents (80.1%) declare taking physical activity. However, the analysis of questionnaire data shows that respondents spend their leisure time mainly in a passive way or on low-intensity activities, which do not require substantial physical effort, such as walks, gymnastics, activities at the swimming pool, or cycling. The results point to the need for more effective promotion of physical activity (particularly in the leisure time) amongst white-collar employees who spend most of the time at work in a seated position.

Opis:
Nurses are often obliged to work in a 12-hr shift work system. We have decided to check whether such a working system constitutes an excessive load for nurses. On the basis of a questionnaire survey among nurses working in an 8-hr daytime shift system (169 nurses) and in a 12-hr shift (536 nurses), the amount of physical workload, work stress, and after-work activities were compared. Data analysis has shown that a 12-hr shift system is characterized by less significant physical workload but greater mental load. The nurses working in a 2-shift system were more tired after work, but they could spend more time on leisure activities and do housework. The data suggest that there are no significant contraindications for nurses to work in a 2-shift system.

Opis:
The aim of this study was to determine what proportion of occupationally active Poles have working capacity that enables them to tolerate hard and very hard physical work. For this purpose physical capacity of 1188 occupationally active subjects (524 women and 664 men), aged 18–64 years was examined. Their maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) was determined indirectly on the basis of their heart rate during an incremental exercise test on a bicycle ergometer. It was found that hard occupational physical work was an excessive load for almost 40% of men and women. This paper discusses how this load should be decreased with planned, appropriately long rest breaks. The percentage of persons for whom their hard physical work becomes an excessive load increases with age to such a degree that a new assessment of individual capability for such work is recommended for persons over 40 years old.

Celem artykułu jest ukazanie różnic w postrzeganiu kryteriów fizycznych cech pracy przez pracodawców i pracowników, a także wskazanie obszarów i zakresu tych różnic na potrzeby opracowania narzędzi teoretycznych i formuł praktycznych współpracy w kreowaniu warunków pracy. Autorzy przedstawiają współczesne koncepcje fizycznych cech pracy z punktu widzenia projektowania pracy w ujęciu zarządzania oraz ergonomii. Teoretycznym modelem zarządzania zastosowanym w badaniu jest koncepcja cech pracy Granta, Frieda, Juillerat, która ze względu na kryteria cech fizycznych została odniesiona do kryteriów ergonomicznych. Na tej podstawie autorzy prezentują wyniki badań zawierające opinie pracowników i pracodawców. Pozwoliło to na określenie pola różnic postrzegania problemów fizycznych cech pracy przez obie grupy respondentów oraz ukazanie ich konsekwencji teoretycznych i praktycznych. Zidentyfikowane w analizie badawczej istotne różnice opinii pracodawców i pracowników w obszarze kryteriów cech fizycznych występują w odniesieniu do obciążenia psychospołecznego oraz środowiska pracy. Te kryteria cech fizycznych są uznawane za mniej ważne przez pracodawców niż przez pracowników. Zaprezentowane wnioski stanowią propozycje określania kierunków dalszych badań oraz rozwiązań praktycznych. Takie ukierunkowanie badań umożliwi w przyszłości zniwelowanie różnic poglądów obu grup w zakresie ochrony zdrowia i życia pracowników.
The aim of this article is to show the differences in the perception of the physical characteristics of the criteria by employers and employees, as well as the identification of areas and scope of these differences for the identification of needs to develop theoretical tools and formulas for practical cooperation in the creation of working conditions. The authors present the contemporary concepts of physical features of work from the point of view of work design as approached by management and ergonomics. The theoretical management model used in the study is the job characteristics concept by Grant, Fried, Juillerat, which, due to the criteria of physical characteristics was related to ergonomic criteria. On this basis, the authors present the results of the study, including the opinions of employees and employers. This made it possible to determine the field of differences in perceiving problems of the physical job characteristics by both groups of respondents and show their theoretical and practical consequences. Significant differences in the views of employers and employees in the area of the criteria for physical characteristics, identified in the research analysis, occur in relation to the psychosocial load and work environment. These criteria of physical characteristics are recognized by employers as less important than the level reported by employees. The presented conclusions are proposals to determine the directions of further research and practical solutions. Such targeted research will enable in future to close the gap between the views of the two groups in terms of health and life of employees.

Objectives: Night shift work has been linked to some chronic diseases. Modification of lifestyle by night work may partially contribute to the development of these diseases, nevertheless, so far epidemiological evidence is limited. The aim of the study was to explore association between night shift work and lifestyle factors using data from a cross-sectional study among blue-collar workers employed in industrial plants in Łódź, Poland. Material and Methods: The anonymous questionnaire was self-administered among 605 employees (236 women and 369 men, aged 35 or more) - 434 individuals currently working night shifts. Distribution of the selected lifestyle related factors such as smoking, alcohol drinking, physical activity, body mass index (BMI), number of main meals and the hour of the last meal was compared between current, former, and never night shift workers. Adjusted ORs or predicted means were calculated, as a measure of the associations between night shift work and lifestyle factors, with age, marital status and education included in the models as covariates. Results: Recreational inactivity (defined here as less than one hour per week of recreational physical activity) was associated with current night shift work when compared to never night shift workers (OR = 2.43, 95% CI: 1.13-5.22) among men. Alcohol abstinence and later time of the last meal was associated with night shift work among women. Statistically significant positive relationship between night shift work duration and BMI was observed among men (p = 0.029). Conclusions: This study confirms previous studies reporting lower exercising among night shift workers and tendency to increase body weight. This finding provides important public health implication for the prevention of chronic diseases among night shift workers. Initiatives promoting physical activity addressed in particular to the night shift workers are recommended.

ObjectivesPhysical activity (PA) is important for the prevention and management of numerous diseases and may have a positive effect on ability to work. The study aimed to assess the level of occupational and leisure time PA of soldiers during the COVID-19 pandemic and to explore whether there was a relationship between PA and perceived work ability.Material and MethodsThe study involved 305 men and 68 women who were territorial army soldiers aged 18–55 (M±SD 32.9±9.01). The Seven-Day Physical Activity Recall (SDPAR) and the Work Ability Index (WAI) were used.ResultsThe level of self-reported PA for the studied soldiers was relatively high; 80% of them met the recommendations of the WHO and were characterized by having a good (60%) or excellent (20%) WAI status. The level of occupational PA of male soldiers was higher than the level of leisure time PA, and they indicated higher levels of occupational PA and leisure time PA during the workweek than the weekend.ConclusionsCurrent work ability in comparison to the best in life and work ability related to the physical requirements of the work were positively correlated with leisure time PA. Work ability related to physical requirements was also positively correlated with occupational and total PA, and work ability related to mental requirements was positively correlated with total PA. The study supports the relationship between PA and several aspects of work ability.

Background In Poland average life expectancy extends, while the number of the elderly who are active in the labor market decreases. Material and Methods The study population consisted of 429 people aged 50–70 years old living in the community of south-eastern Poland. The respondents were divided into 2 study groups: group I – late middle age (50–60 years old) and group II – early old age (61–70 years old). With the use of questionnaires they were given, we obtained their socio-demographic data, assessed their cognitive and emotional state, as their physical activity levels. We used the Tinetti test to assess their gait and balance. Results We did not find statistically significant difference in cognitive functioning between the studied groups (p = 0.109). Moreover, there was no significant relationship between belonging to an age group and suffering from depression (p = 0.06) as well as no major differences were observed in the general level of physical activity in relation to age (p = 0.112). Our study found that most of our subjects, regardless of gender, declared their willingness to continue professional work after reaching retirement age. Conclusions The results of own research did not show significant differences in psychophysical state between people in late middle age and at the beginning of old age. Most of the researched participants declared their willingness to continue professional work. Due to changing demographic conditions, it is becoming an important issue to maintain the highest possible level of professional activity of older people in the labor market in Poland.

Objectives To prospectively investigate if the risk of chronic neck/shoulder pain is associated with work stress and job control, and to assess if physical exercise modifies these associations. Material and Methods The study population comprised 29 496 vocationally active women and men in the Norwegian Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT Study) without chronic pain at baseline in 1984–1986. Chronic neck/shoulder pain was assessed during a follow-up in 1995–1997. A generalized linear model (Poisson regression) was used to calculate adjusted relative risks (RRs). Results Work stress was dosedependently associated with the risk of neck/shoulder pain (p trend < 0.001 in both sexes). The women and men who perceived their work as stressful “almost all the time” had multi-adjusted RRs = 1.27 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.1–1.47) and 1.71 (95% CI: 1.46–2), respectively, referencing those with no stressful work. Work stress interacted with sex (p < 0.001). Poor job control was not associated with the risk of neck/shoulder pain among the women (RR = 1.04, 95% CI: 0.92–1.19) nor the men (RR = 1.09, 95% CI: 0.95–1.26). Combined analyses showed an inverse dose-dependent association between hours of physical exercise/week and the risk of neck/shoulder pain in the men with no stressful work (p trend = 0.05) and among the men who perceived their work as “rarely stressful” (p trend < 0.02). This effect was not statistically significant among the women or among men with more frequent exposure to work stress. Conclusions Work stress is an independent predictor of chronic neck/shoulder pain and the effect is stronger in men than in women. Physical exercise does not substantially reduce the risk among the persons with frequent exposure to work stress.

Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential association between occupational stress and musculoskeletal symptoms in firefighters. Material and Methods Data were collected among Cypriot firefighters through a battery of adapted questionnaires completed anonymously. Results A total of 430 firefighters (a response rate of 68%) completed the survey (the age range: 21–60 years). A total of 11% of firefighters reported moderate to extremely severe stress through the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire and Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale. A total of 40% of firefighters reported musculoskeletal symptoms, the most frequent being back pain. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression models showed that occupational stress was associated with a 50% higher risk of musculoskeletal symptoms in firefighters after adjusting for age, smoking and obesity (OR = 1.52, p = 0.04). In addition, a positive dose-response relationship was found between occupational stress and musculoskeletal symptoms. Conclusions Occupational stress constitutes a significant risk for firefighters and is associated with higher prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms at work.

Objectives To establish a practical method for assessing the general metabolic health conditions among different employee groups, this study utilized the total count of metabolic syndrome (MetS) elements as a parameter, and performed a retrospective analysis comparing changes of MetS component count (MSC) of 5 years among day-time work (DW) and day-andnight rotating shift work (RSW) employees. Material and Methods The data of personal histories, physical examinations, blood tests, abdominal sonographic examinations and occupational records were collected from a cohort of workers in an electronics manufacturing company. We first defined the arithmetic mean value of MSC as MSC density (MSCD) for the employee group; then we compared the changes of MSCD over 5 years between DW and RSW workers. Occupational, personal and health records were analyzed for the 1077 workers with an initial mean age of 32.4 years (standard deviation (SD): 6.2 years), including 565 RSW workers (52%). Results The initial MSCDs were 1.26 and 1.12 (p = 0.06) for DW and RSW workers, respectively; after 5 years, the increments of MSCD for DW and RSW workers were 0.10 and 0.39, respectively (p < 0.01). By performing multivariate logistic regression analyses, and comparing with DW co-workers, final results indicated that the workers exposed to RSW have 1.7-fold increased risk of elevated MSCD (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.28–2.25, p < 0.01); and are 38% less likely (adjusted rate ratio (aRR) 0.62, 95% CI: 0.45–0.86, p < 0.01) to attain decreased MSCD. Conclusions These observations demonstrate that changes of MSCD are significantly different between DW and RSW workers, and are increasingly associated with RSW exposure. In conclusion, MSCD can represent the general metabolic health conditions of a given employee group; MSC, MSCD and their transitional changes can be applied as simple and standardized tools for monitoring metabolic health risk profiles when managing employee health, at both the individual and company levels.

The aim was to prove the relationship between the applied diet and practiced physical activity, and civilization diseases. The research conducted for the needs of the article was to illustrate trends in female white collar workers’ behaviours in terms of the prevention of civilization diseases. The paper demonstrates several important issues regarding respondents’ work and spending their leisure time actively. They also provided the information about the diet they applied and its impact on the prevention of ill-health. The research indicated the relations mainly between a physical activity and well-being of respondents. Analysing everyday eating habits of the respondents it was shown that they do not influence the general causes of development of civilization diseases.

Opis:
Impedance cardiography seems to be a very good, although underappreciated diagnostic method. What may distinguish it from among the many research methods is the fact that it enables non-invasive monitoring of cardiac output, stroke volume and systemic vascular resistance. Holter recording of the hemodynamic parameters makes it possible to study them not only in stationary (hospital, outpatient clinic) conditions, but also during household or professional activities, e.g., during road vehicle driving. Assessment of the trends of changes in the circulatory system of the employee at work makes it possible to judge whether the type of work performed by the worker is well tolerated – whether it is not too hard or too stressful. This is important, therefore, impedance cardiography can be extensively used in occupational medicine. Provision of preventive care to workers according to current standards requires, on the one hand, the use of the latest diagnostic methods while, on the other hand, the methods must be inexpensive, because otherwise the employer would not be able or willing to pay the associated costs. Impedance cardiography meets those criteria; however, few data is available in literature worldwide on the use of this method in the research on the impact of occupational work on cardiovascular responses of the employees. This work reports the use of impedance cardiography in studies on the various aspects of work environment.
