The article presents the hygienic characteristics of the diet of workers in cable production enterprises, which is due to specific working conditions and high physical activity affecting the health of employees. The purpose of the study is to analyze the existing literature on nutrition in this industry, identify deficiencies in the diet, and determine the impact of nutrition on the health of workers. The methodology includes a review and analysis of scientific publications, regulatory documents and recommendations in the field of food hygiene. The main results of the study showed that the diets of workers do not always meet the requirements of modern hygienic standards. Most often, there is a deficiency of proteins, vitamins and minerals, as well as a high content of high-calorie and low-nutritious foods. An important conclusion is the need to develop recommendations for optimizing the diet, which may include the introduction of balanced menus that meet the specifics of work and the needs of workers. The contribution of the study to the field of occupational hygiene is to systematize knowledge about the nutrition of cable production workers and identify current problems that need to be addressed. The limitations of the study are related to its literary nature, which does not allow for quantitative measurements. Practical implications include the need to revise the nutrition policy at enterprises, which can help improve the health and performance of employees. The social impact is to improve the quality of life of workers and reduce the burden on the healthcare system, which is important for the sustainable development of the industry.
