Abstract

The paper is an ergonomic study of the sanitary and living conditions at the working place of fishers on long-distance fishing vessels, such as the trawler B-418/111 t/h "Bonito". The research was performed during the trip in the region of the Falkland Islands (Malvinas). Prophylactic examinations were carried out during 162 days on 77 members of the crew and the hygienic-sanitary conditions on the vessel were analysed. The ergonomic research included all the working places of the members of the crew (fishers on the deck, staff of the industrial processing rooms staff of the machine-rooms and attendant staff) and the following parameters were analysed according to the principles of ergonomics: the characteristics of working places and working conditions, the environmental factors, the anthropometric data of the crew and the physical and psychic stress, for the purpose of optimizing the working conditions according to the physical-psychic peculiarities of the members of the crew.
