Background: Bakeries can be a very hazardous work site. Occupational health problems at the bakeries may vary from physical, chemical, biological, and psychological health problems. Heat, light, noise, and radiation are the physical health problems that might be encountered at the bakery. This study was carried out to evaluate the occupational health problems among bakery workers and to evaluate the safety measures at the bakery sites. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among the bakeries on the 10th of Ramadan City. A total of 100 bakery workers were randomly selected and interviewed individually, at their work. We assessed the self-recorded health problems of the workers during the last 6 months and occupational health problems among the bakeries. In addition, occupational health hazards and precautionary measures taken were assessed. Results: Different occupational hazards had disclosed as the following (from the highest to the lowest exposure) among bakery workers: 80.0% for moving stuff while 60.0% had poor positioning during work, followed by 58.0% who were facing excessive heat, then 50.0 % who encountered a hazardous degree of noise.
Conclusion and Recommendations: We suggest further studies to evaluate the degree of the physical and ergonomic hazards at the bakery sites. Besides, bakery workers should be encouraged to be trained on occupational health and safety; how to prevent health problems, accidents and use safety measures, first aids, and PPEs at the bakery sites.
