Summary. This study aimed to study the working conditions of healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 300 primary, secondary and tertiary health workers took part in this survey, which assessed their working conditions and psycho-emotional state. As a result of our research, it was revealed that the hygienic working conditions of medical personnel during the pandemic at the time of the outbreak of COVID-19 did not meet WHO (World Health Organization) standards. In this regard, there was a risk of infection of the medical staff in the workplace.
