Sažetak

The role of bus transport in the city and intercity traffic, the development of bus transport and the consequences of the driver's unsuitable body position upon health are dealt with. Buses make 0.4-0.5% of the total number of registered motor-driven vehicles. Of the total number of traffic accidents caused by motor vehicle drivers in Croatia those due to bus drivers come to 1,9-2.2%. The bus driver's tasks, working conditions, work environment and other characteristic job related activities are discussed. Special emphasis is given to the driver's unsuitable body posture and to the ergonomie requirements of the driver's seat. Investigations show the unsuitable posture to be cause of health disorders. The most common are diseases of circulation (especially arterial hypertension), locomotor system diseases (back pain syndrome) and psychic disorders.
