    • To present a system for classifying occupational pathology severity based on working capacity loss.
    • To determine the concepts of acute occupational disease and professional accidents.
    • To review the international list of occupational diseases and propose improvements for the Ukrainian list.

    Summary:

    • The article offers medical definitions and examples of occupational diseases and professionally conditioned pathologies.
    • A classification system for occupational pathology is presented, correlating severity with the degree of working capacity loss.
    • Key concepts such as acute occupational disease (intoxication) and professional accidents are defined.
    • The international list of occupational diseases is examined, with recommendations for enhancing the Ukrainian list to promote safer working conditions.

    Impact:

    • Improved understanding and management of occupational diseases.
    • Standardized classification of occupational pathology severity for fair assessment.
    • Enhanced clarity on acute occupational diseases and professional accidents.
    • Potential for improved workplace safety through a refined Ukrainian occupational disease list and better working conditions.
