Hazard estimation for the chosen work stands in metallurgical industry.

The research has been carried out on the chosen work stands of various strenuousness level in metallurgical industry. Microclimate conditions were estimated, together with noise exposure, dust density and the exposure to the chosen chemical agents, among others carbon monoxide, nitric oxides, manganese and iron. The analysis of the resulting figures showed exceeding of the binding quotas of Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) indicator for some stands, leading sometimes to thermal discomfort.
