The ratio of women was 45.3% which is slightly higher than proportion in nation-wide data. The women’s age at the timeof notification of an occupational disease is lower than in men. In men diseases caused by physical factors and pneumoconiosis aremore frequent, in women we can find more professional infections diseases.
