The database was formed by conducting a survey in Czech Republic, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Russian Federation and Turkey. Empirical data are analysed by methods of quality two-dimensional projection and design of classification trees. The analysis established causal relationships between toxic organisational factors and respondents' assessments regarding changes in their self-feeling, as well as health consequences.
