The aim of the article was to characterize the biomechanical indicators for assessing the severity of the crew of special vehicles. Defined parameters affecting obtainable value of indicator, their the method of determining and interpretation. In addition, the author developed a original computer program to determine the biomechanical indicators. The examples of the results of the indicators obtained on the basis of experimental studies are presented as well.
