Abstract

People's health can be affected by the use of chemical products, especially in agricultural work. Pregnant women are more sensitive and prone to suffering from problems. The objective of this research is to develop preventive measures for the health care of the workers of the “Florsani LTDA” plantation in the San Isidro parish. The research was both qualitative and quantitative with a non-experimental design and having descriptive scope. A questionnaire was applied to 30 women who work on the plantation. It was determined that there is little perception of risk by women, there were difficulties in previous births and effects on their health were evident, with burning in the throat being more represented. A proposal of measures was made to contribute to the preservation of the health of all women. Prevention, risk assessment, training and continuous monitoring are essential to ensure safe and healthy work environments for everyone.
