Aging of the manpower resources is still continuing in this country as a whole and in individual republics, the average age approaching 40 years thus stepping on the verge of the older age group. The aging people are being 'pushed away' from most professions and occupations. Judging from the results of the recent general census of the population, in the USSR the portion of the 'pushed away' manpower has amounted to 80.7%. The growing discrepancy between the aging manpower resources and the modern industry demands are expressed in terms of increased morbidity and mortality among the productive age-groups.
