  • Heat stress and illness among injera baking workers in Addis Ababa

    Open Access•Belay Gezahegn, Meaza Gezu Shentema et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2026

    Injera baking in Ethiopia involves labor-intensive work in high-temperature environments, raising concerns about occupational heat stress. Despite this, data on heat exposure and related health impacts in this setting are limited. This study aimed to assess heat exposure levels, the prevalence of heat-related illnesses (HRI), and associated factors among workers in the Injera Baking and Local Market sectors in Addis Ababa. A comparative cross-sec…

  • Assessment of dust exposure and chronic respiratory symptoms among workers in medium scale woodwork factories in Ethiopia; a cross sectional study

    Open Access•Tegegnework Yitayew Awoke, Abera Takele et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2021

    High prevalence of chronic respiratory symptoms was reported from woodwork factory workers. Increased work- experience, using bio-fuel as an energy source for cooking, past occupational dust exposure history, and having no occupational safety and health training were identified risk factors. The measured average personal wood dust exposure level was above the recommended occupational threshold limit value. Therefore, workers' wood dust exposure r…

  • Chronic respiratory symptoms, lung function and associated factors among flour mill factory workers in Hawassa city, southern Ethiopia

    Open Access•Zemachu Ashuro, Zemachu Ashuro Lagiso et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2020

    We found chronic respiratory symptoms to be high among flour mill workers. Lower education level, mixing department, increased work experience, and longer working hours were identified factors. The flour mill dust exposed worker's lung function parameters were highly reduced. This study suggested that workers' dust exposure reduction and control methods in flour mill factories need to be implemented
