This study was designed as a cross-sectional descriptive investigation with the objective of referencing previous research by disclosing the incidence of occupational accidents and occupational diseases among female personnel employed in human health services in Turkey. The study analyzed data from the Social Security Institution of the Republic of Turkey spanning the years 2013 to 2020. The research findings indicate that female healthcare workers experience a greater incidence of occupational accidents and illnesses compared to their male counterparts. Nevertheless, male healthcare workers exhibit a higher mortality rate resulting from work-related accidents. In contemporary times, there has been a decline in work-related accidents and fatalities, as well as occupational illnesses, among women employed in various industries. However, there has been a notable rise in work-related accidents and fatalities, as well as occupational illnesses, among female healthcare professionals.
