The cross-sectional epidemiological study has been performed to identify peculiarities of health risk factors perception by different categories of medical workers in the Vologda Hospital. Radioactive (91.4 %), chemical (87.6 %) and microbiological (73.7 %) pollution was perceived by the respondents as bringing the highest risk to health. The average risk factors included genetic and biological factors (61.7 %), emergency situations (58.8 %) and lifestyle factors (45.0 %). Physical and climatic factors and factors of life quality were perceived to be least hazardous. There were detected statistically significant differences in subjective perception of certain risk factors between doctors and nursing staff
