Abstract
The different causal factors of work and work environment which contribute to the development of work-related diseases are discussed. The diseases such as locomotor disorders, chronic non-specific respiratory diseases, arterial hypertension, disorders connected with psychosocial factors and the use of video display terminals are separately analysed. Special emphasis is placed on the importance of epidemiological and clinical approach in the prevention and control of work-related diseases with regard to the different causal factors.
