Assessment of the psychophysiological state of management staff of different ages and the risks of health disorders

Abstract

The main reason for the low life expectancy of the population and the deterioration of the demographic situation in the Russian Federation is the high mortality of employees of working age. One of the significant directions in the problem of ensuring the preservation of the health of workers is to ensure the preservation of labor longevity.
 The study aims to analyze the features of labor activity in a daily cycle during the week and the functional state of employees of the management staff of industrial enterprises, depending on age characteristics, to develop measures to prevent the development of unfavorable functional conditions, occupational pathology.
 The object of the study are employees of neuropsychiatric mental labor, including 140 employees of the management staff at the two television enterprises, men aged 25 to 65±1.15 years, with work experience in a managerial position from 3 to 20±0.99 years. Physiological studies included assessment of the functional state of the central nervous system (CNS) and the cardiovascular system by conventional methods.
 Scientists presented a scientific justification of the problem of ensuring professional performance depending on gender and age characteristics, which are based on insufficiently identified physiological features of the formation of fatigue, fatigue, the development of overstrain of the functional systems of the body of workers in modern forms of labor, to predict possible changes in the health of workers in order to prolong working longevity.
 As a result of the analysis of data on changes in the functional state of workers, we found: a significant spread of arterial hypertension in the groups of 30–39 and 40–49 years, low representation of the "weak" type of nervous system and high diastolic pressure in people with arterial hypertension, with a "strong" type of nervous system, a tendency to affect rigidity in the group of employees with arterial hypertension.
