Abstract		Health status of workers is presented based on data collection concerning sick-leave. Musculosceletal disorders as the most important cause for temporary absence from work with us and globally, have been pointed out. Database concerning sick-leave, the holder of which is the Institute of Public Health of the Republic of Slovenia and which is gathered on the basis of Certificate of medically justified absence from work, were used for analysis. Data show a greater risk for workwomen, especiall y between 40 and 50 years of age. They expose Iumbar spine disorders as a leading trouble in this group which is equally represented in both sexes and cervical spine disorders which are more frequent in female population. While in men with backache, the absence from work prevails in mining industry and in forestry, in women production activities with other specific burdenings and hazards are in the foreground. Temporary absence from work owing to cervical spine disorders in production activities shows, that economic activity is in the foreground in both sexes - which indicates similar burdenings and hazards at the workplace. Due to big differences in risks and characteristics of population, it is necessary to tackle the preventive programmes for the diseases of musculosceletal system and connective tissue in a complex way, especially considering different aspects with the help of experts from different professions.
Summary		V prispevku je prikazano zdravstveno stanje delavcev s pomočjo proučevanja zbirke podatkov o bolniškem staležu. Izpostavljene so bolezni kosti, mišic in vezivnega tkiva kot najpomembnejši razlog začasne nezmožnosti za delo pri nas in v svetu. Za analizo smo uporabili zbirko podatkov o bolniškem staležu, katere nosilec je Inštitut za varovanje zdravja RS in ki nastaja na podlagi Potrdil o zdravstveno upravičeni zadržanosti od dela. Podatki kažejo večjo ogroženost delavk, predvsem med 40. in 50. letom starosti. Izpostavljajo težave z ledveno hrbtenico, vodilno težavo v tej skupini, ki je enako zastopana pri obeh spolih, in težave z vratno hrbtenico, ki pesti predvsem ženski del populacije. Medtem ko pri moških s težavami v križu prevladujejo odsotnosti z dela v dejavnostih, kot so rudarstvo in gozdarstvo, pa so pri ženskah v ospredju proizvodne dejavnosti z drugimi specifičnimi obremenitvami in škodljivostmi. Pri začasni odsotnosti z dela zaradi težav z vratno hrbtenico je iz ranga gospodarskih dejavnosti razvidno, da je pri obeh spolih v ospredju proizvodna dejavnost - torej podobne obremenitve in škodljivosti na delovnem mestu. Zaradi velikih razlik v vrsti ogroženosti in značilnostih populacije, s katero imamo opravka, se je potrebno priprave preventivnih programov za bolezni kosti, mišic in vezivnega tkiva lotiti kompleksno in predvsem z različnih zornih kotov ob podpori strokovnjakov različnih strok.
