Abstract Introduction: Cement manufacturing industry workers face inevitable circumstances and are unintentionally exposed to different injuries at the workplace. The purpose of this study was to establish the pattern of injuries and their related risk factors. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 360 workers from different departments within three cement factories in Chhattisgarh, India. Results: 55% of employees had either abrasion (30%) or dust in their eyes (23%). Workers in open areas (unadjusted odds ratio UOR = 3.28 2.08–5.18) and those who do not have training in personal protective equipment (UOR = 2.19 1.42–3.39) were more likely to get injured. Conclusions: A high number of workers suffered from injuries, as reported by this study; therefore, there is a need for thorough training and safety procedures.
