Abstract

Nurses perceived occupational health and safety as moderately adequate. Among the examined variables, Working Environment Equipment and Design, Quality of PPE, and Equipment Used were found to significantly influence nurses' occupational health and safety. These findings underscore the need for targeted interventions to improve clinical workspace design, ensure high-quality PPE, and optimize equipment use, thereby enhancing nurses' safety and well-being.
