<p>Members of vessel`s crew of transport and fi shing fl eets is a professional group of industrial workers</p><p>contingent operating the important links of the economic mechanism of many types of industries. Loss of</p><p>ability to work, disability, and in some cases may be fatal occupational traumas of members of vessel`s</p><p>crew, determine the socio-hygienic and medical nature of the problem and its economic importance.</p><p>The analysis of the provision of medical care in 2216 occupational damages of members of vessel`s</p><p>crew of the Northern Water`s Basin obtained on board of ships of sea transport, river transport and fi shing fl eets.</p><p>Occupational accidents on vessels were 156.4 per 1000 employees, including 198.2 in the sea</p><p>transport ones; 132.9 - river transport and 67.7 - fi shing. Women from among this cohort of industrial</p><p>workers are injured on vessels in 1.8 times less often than men. With increasing production time</p><p>traumatism of members of vessel`s crew sequentially reduced by more than 3.4-fold in patients with</p><p>experience of over 15 years compared persons the fi rst year of operation. The volume of urgent measures</p><p>in vessel`s medical point due to the high frequency of fractures among the victims (60.7), including -</p><p>open (10.7); extensive infected wounds with massive damages of deeply lying tissues (23.7) wearing</p><p>complicated or a combined character. Occupational falls from a height with ladders into the open hold</p><p>or overboard occur with the sailors and minders when performing general vessel`s, cargo-handling and</p><p>mooring work (9%). Proportion damages of members of vessel`s crew in alcoholic intoxication on vessel</p><p>when performing work up to 8% in the total traumatism, including in sea transport fl eet - 9% (18.0); river</p><p>transport - 9% (9.9) and fi sheries ones - 4% (2.8). Deadly accidents of members of vessel`s crew reached</p><p>10% in the overall structure of traumas. Risk factors in the composition of members of vessel`s crew</p><p>of sea and river transport and fi shing fl eets in the Northern Water`s Basin depended of type of work</p><p>performed, special vessel`s affected, drinking of alcohol, sex, age, length of service.</p>
