General evaluation of workloads showed that working with cross-cut and sloping saws was physiologically most unfavourable, whereas working on a horizontal band grinding machine was characterized by a significant physical overload and labour tensity. The results of the study can be used to prevent or minimize the unfavourable occupational factors of dealing with these mechanisms.
