title: [Physiological and hygienic characteristics of working conditions of bus drivers in the Tadzhik SSR].
abstract: In warm seasons of the year, the major unfavourable factors in the labour conditions of bus-drivers engaged in local and transrepublican bus routes were heating microclimate, neuropsychic and physical overload, excessive noise levels. The unsatisfactory labour conditions resulted into strain and overstrain of the thermoregulatory function and cardio-vascular system, decreased working capacity and increased fatiguability, as well as in development of nonspecific pathology in the drivers. Improving of the labour conditions should include measures towards optimization of the microclimate and modernization of the cabin's design, rationalization of the labour regimen and improvement of services on the roads.
