Abstract. This investigation is dedicated to clarifying of physiological mechanisms
of labor activity in subjects of a different gender and age with the purpose of
a theoretical background of rational usage of human residual performance and
rehabilitation of his health. When analyzing the tightness of the
relationships, there is a stronger relationship between the residual
performance and the calendar age than the rate of functional aging and calendar
age. The study of concomitant influencing factors throughout life has been
shown that the presence of labor or family migration within the region, within
and between states; as well as indicators of the length of service, year, age,
and reasons for retirement do not have reliable correlation with the rate of
aging. Reliable correlation associations were found with continued retirement
at the time of the study; with the year of termination of work; and the size of
the total income of the examined individuals - associations in comparison with
the relationship with the calendar age have a weaker connection with the rate
of aging. With indicators of the class of tension and severity, type of work,
class of intensity, class for differentiation of labor according to the ILO
classification. Muscle strength and endurance in the women have expressed age
dynamics. The muscle strength of the women is significantly slashed at 30-35 of
years, and the muscle endurance remains stable up to 55-year’s age. For the men
the dynamics of the muscle strength and endurance have no obvious age trend,
and mostly depend from lifestyle, physical and labor activity. In functionally
young subjects the working physical work capacity is 15-20% higher, compared to
an average level, observed when the functional and calendar ages coincide. The
age-related decline the physical working capacity in the older workers is
decelerated owing to the selection of those who are functionally young and the
elimination of those who age prematurely. The physiological capabilities that
determine 47.54% of the actual performance of people aged 60 - 89 years are
reliably due to accelerated aging. Studies have shown high information content
of using the indicator of residual performance in people over 60 years of age. A
study of residual performance in people over 60 years of age showed that close
to 57% of elderly people and 96.7% of senile people need ergonomic innovations
in work and life to increase physical independence from outside help and
compensate for age-related decline of working capacity.
Key words: Biological age,
residual working capacity, elderly workers, ageing, hand grip strength.
