Abstract

The majority of mining enterprises in Russia are located in the northern regions. In this connection the high level of traumatism and occupational diseases of miners is caused not only by the influence of the main production factors (dustiness, noise, insufficient illumination, etc.) but also by the influence of negative temperatures. An effective way to reduce the risk of injuries and occupational diseases is to improve the working parameters of personal protective equipment.
