ABSTRACT

Results of the study on 84 operators showed that automatic working conditions affected on operator's health considerably: 31% of workers suffering from emotional disorder were founded out by questionnaires and psychological tests. Among them, there were 5 cases of anxiety-depression, 17 cases of simple depression and 4 cases of simple anxiety. These results corresponded to the analysis of operator's socio-economic and their working conditions. Some recommendations were suggested to eliminate the negative effects of automatic work.
