A study of the working conditions of seamstresses-minders working at modern, modernized sewing facilities of Oktepa Aqua Service LLC, Tashteks and Boyteks JVs in Tashkent showed that in the course of their work they are exposed to the adverse effects of noise, general vibration, high levels air temperature in the warm period of the year, the intense nature of the labor process. The working conditions of seamstresses belong to the 3rd class of the 3rd degree of harmfulness. Working conditions and the nature of labor processes cause them to stress the cardiovascular system, which is compensatory in nature. During the hot season, there is a significant weakening of the functional reserves of the cardiovascular system. To stabilize the indicators of the cardiovascular system of seamstresses, it is necessary to introduce hygienic recommendations for improving working conditions.
