Implication

Cross-sectional survey reveals low awareness of safety regulations and ergonomic hazards among ceramic workers, highlighting the need for improved training.

Key Points

  • Most ceramic workers demonstrated awareness of general health hazards, but awareness of safety regulations was low.
  • Only 34% were aware of safety regulations and 33.3% were aware of hazard management in their workplace.
  • Significant recognition of physical hazards like noise and heat was noted, but awareness of chemical hazards was minimal at 1.9%.
  • There is a significant gap in awareness of ergonomic hazards, where only 43.8% understood risks related to manual handling.
