Abstract

Due to the fact that during long-term work on a fly-in-fly-out method in the Arctic, destructive changes in the specialist’s personality and activities can develop, it is necessary to take into account not only the adverse qualities formed at the hiring time, but also their occurrence and development likelihood, i.e. study the psychological risks. The most unfavorable changes in the workers’ personality are professional destruction (changes in the existing structure of activity and personality that adversely affect labor productivity and interaction with other participants in this process), which include character accentuations. As the research result, it was established that the character accentuation is more pronounced than among the southern regions representatives. The workers in diamond mining are characterized by hypertensive and cyclothymic combined with exaltation. The oil specialists are characterized by hypertensive, pedantic and cyclothymic. The fly-in-fly-out workers in the south are most markedly demonstrative and pedantic.
