Abstract
Female health workers who work in hospitals have a risk of being exposed to various hazards in the work environment which can cause reproductive health problems. Female workers have abilities and physiology that are more sensitive to exposure to hazards, so they need protection during menstruation, pregnancy and breastfeeding. This study aims to identify occupational reproductive hazard of female healthcareworkers at the hospital. This type of research is quantitative with the path analysis approach method. The research was conducted at the Gadjah Mada University Academic Hospital from April to November 2022. The results showed that the contribution of menstrual disorders and shift work to occupational reproductive hazard was 10.8%. The value of the direct influence of menstrual disorders is 0.153 and the work shift is 0.341 on maternal and child health disorders (pvalue>0.05). The indirect effect the variables of menstrual disorders (pvalue=0.002) and work shifts(pvalue=0.028) through the occupational reproductive hazard variable have a significant (pvalue<0.05) influence on maternal and child health problem. The conclusion is the need for special attention and policies for female workers during the menstrual period and work shift arrangements as an occupational reproductive hazard factor to prevent maternal and child health problems.There is no Figure or data content available for this article
