A Study on Work safety Among Lab Employees in one of the Leading Hospitals,Gobichettipalayam

For both lab workers and the patients they treat, protecting laboratory employees from workplace injuries and illnesses is vital. Healthy and well-rested lab personnel are crucial for ongoing monitoring, compassionate patient care, and effective advocacy. In laboratory settings, there are a variety of workplace stressors that can lead to illnesses and injuries. Throughout the day, lab personnel must meet significant physical and psychological demands, as well as work in a potentially hazardous setting. Working in a lab can be hazardous to one's health in the short and long term. Among the health impacts include musculoskeletal injuries and disorders, other injuries, infections, mental health changes, cardiovascular, metabolic, and neoplastic diseases. The goal of this paper is to investigate the workplace safety of lab workers in the chosen location. A questionnaire was framed and circulated to the employees of that hospital in order to study the extent of work safety among Lab employees. The expected outcome of this paper is the improvement in already existing workplace safety for lab workers in the hospital. The findings are also expected to pave the way for future research work.
