Abstract

Objective: To analyze occupational health during the gestational stage. Method: Descriptive documentary. Conclusion: Occupational health during the gestational stage is a critical aspect that should be addressed with a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to ensure the well-being of both mother and fetus. Exposure to occupational hazards, such as chemicals, strenuous physical conditions and occupational stress, can have significant adverse consequences on pregnancy development and perinatal outcomes.
