It is shown in the paper that sensitivity of human organism to the toxic action of toluene is not changed under exposure to the microclimate, producing allowable thermal state, and is increased under exposure to the heating microclimate leading to the development of maximum thermal state. Under toluene exposure in the concentration 300 mg/m3 resistance to the heating microclimate under the conditions of joint exposure to these factors is reduced, which is manifest in an earlier onset of the maximum thermal state in people under observation.
