Resumen MD thesis. General considerations on mushroom growing and picking and on working conditions and methods (workplaces and workposts) are followed by a review of the occupational hazards and harmful agencies, and of the categories of personnel involved (arrangement and allocation of working hours, special requirements of the occupation and contra-indications). The author then examines the hazards of this occupation, dividing them into traumatic and physical hazards, occupational accidents, chemical hazards of gases given off by compost (NH3, H2S, CO2) and of chemicals employed at various stages of mushroom farming (pesticides, rodenticides, etc.), hazards of parasites, microbial and mycotic infection (mushroom grower's lung, mushroom grower's onychopathy). Problems of how to eliminate these hazards and role of the occupational health physician.
