abstract="From a group of 2669 serious and 887 fatal work injuries in the North Moravian region in 1974-1983 injuries caused by fall from a high place were analyzed in more detail and in this group fatal injuries and severe injuries contracted during work of fitters. The authors deal in particular with the causes of 71 fatal and 243 severe injuries with regard to age, the time of the day, the time relation of the working shift, professiography and the effect of disease or alcohol. Obvious pathological causes were revealed in a minority of cases although in 69,7% of necropsies pathological changes were detected in the organism. The part played by alcohol is obvious only in 4.45%. Suggestions for a preventive orientation with emphasis on psychological factors are submitted.<p /><p>Language: cs</p>",
