Abstrakt     We present a model of subjective estimations of work load combined with the mathematical model of connections between subjectively estimated human availability and real workers' performance. This model should be used in situations where workers' performance should be measured. We evaluated the method and model with workers with a lower level of education. Our main interest was to discover if the model 'works' in different working situtions. Previously it was evaluated with operators and guards. The presented model offers the possibility to estimate work loads, especially mental work loads in situations where the use of other methods is impossible or difficult. The great advantage of the model is the broad area of its use. Use of subjective estimations connected with the presented model offers the possibility to estimate fatigue, overload and stress in a real working situation and to prevent human error.
