title: [Subjective assessment of stress and monotony in manufacturing workers in the food and flavorings industries].
abstract: Data are given on the results from studies of the subjective evaluation of stress and monotony of work with basic professions in the production of chocolate products, waffles and pastry. The evaluation of the occupational monotony and stress points out to certain age differences. All women workers (save those above 50 years) estimate their work as moderately monotonous. The women workers up to 25 years old go through the monotony of work with decreased vigilance, boredom and psychic satiety, which is due to the incomplete adaptation to the work performed, their attitude towards it and the aspiration towards more qualified work. The psychic stress in the younger is a result from the experience of the monotony and reiteration, and in the remaining groups--from the high imposed speed and emotional unsteadiness.
