title: [Differences in morbidity between male and female machinery operators in chemical manufacture].
abstract: Statistical analysis of the rate of applying for medical advice, morbidity and the detailed medical examinations' data concerned with chemical industry machine operators, revealed considerably higher respective rates in men as compared with women. It was proposed that the different rates could be accounted for by the men's and women's social role differences, which influenced their functioning and hygienic behaviour in the occupational conditions.
