Study of the level of stress resistance of ship's cutters in the conditions of a shipbuilding enterprise
Introduction. Work-related stress is defined as an individual's response to job performance. Employees of enterprises working in stressful conditions are more likely to develop various functional disorders, and this is also a significant factor for many somatic disorders. The purpose of the study is to define the level of stress resistance of the shipbuilders of the shipbuilding enterprise and to determine the dependence of the level of professional stress and increased nervous tension depending on the length of service in the conditions of harmful production. Methodology and organization of the study. The study was conducted using the methods “Assessment of neuropsychic stability “Prognosis”, “Professional stress scale” and “Test for assessing the stress resistance of a personality” (N.V Kirshev & N.V Ryabchikov). Research results and discussion. When comparing two groups with different duration of work in conditions of hazardous production, the signs of moderate stress are statistically significantly more common in those with longer work experience. The increase in professional work experience under the influence of harmful production factors (industrial noise) correlates with the deterioration in indicators of occupational stress and stress resistance of the subjects. Conclusions. Comparison of the results of the groups on the occupational stress scale indicates a significant increase in signs of nervous tension and moderate stress in people with a long work experience in hazardous production
