Seen the growth of the importance of clusters «strength and sensitivity», «signs that accompany the basic psycho-emotional symptomatology» and «degree of satisfaction with everyday activity» and the peak of their manifestation in persons with work experience of 10-15 years; the absence of significant differences of the cluster of «mood change» in respondents, regardless of their length of work; the importance of clusters «the significance of the social environment» and «self-esteem of health» in the group of those with an employment of more than 20 years.
