title: [Function of the fingers in weavers and spinners].
abstract: The article presents the results of examination of 69 female weavers, spinners and office staff workers, which included studies of strength of the hand, pinching with the 1st-5th fingers, and endurance of the 1st and 2nd fingers under static load before and after work. Comparison was made of the different data received in the female workers depending on their labour productivity. It was established that professionalism specifically influenced the strength and endurance of fingers. In the workers with the labour productivity increasing the average level by 16-21%, individual functional characteristics were higher both at the beginning and at the end of the working shift.
