The results of the study aimed at highlighting: professional effort factors experienced by the trial subjects; occupational risk factors that cannot be avoided and which, due to the nature of the workload and the conditions for completing it, can in time lead to reduced work capacity, premature wear and tear, work-related illnesses and risky behaviors in the workplace, with serious consequences for the safety and health of employees and / or other people; measures to prevent and reduce identified work and stress factors, in order to ensure health and safety at work, optimal use of human resources and maintenance of work capacity throughout the professional life. The results can be implemented in the actions taken to ensure occupational health and safety regulations and to monitor employees’ health conditions and their work capacity in accordance with the legislation in force.https://www.matec-conferences.org/articles/matecconf/pdf/2019/39/matecconf_mse2019_12015.pdf
