[Experience in improving the working conditions and health status of workers at a large chemical plant].

Working conditions were studied at a chemical plant manufacturing nitrogen compounds. The leading adverse industrial factor was found to be chemical as ambient air pollution from ammonia, nitric dioxide and oxide, and other substances. The plant's administration constantly keeps the working conditions and health status of workers under control. The sanitary laboratory monitoring noxious industrial factors has been operating at the plant for tens of years. Scheduled improvement of working conditions leads to their gradual improvement. Periodic medical examinations of workers exposed to adverse working conditions, timely treatment of patients (by showing in those with gastroduodenal ulcer diseases as an example), diets, medicines, etc. result in the workers' better health.
