摘要

尽管工作中的月经卫生管理对女性工人的健康很重要，但在职业健康研究中却被忽视了。这项研究调查了韩国740名化妆品销售人员的独自工作时间与月经健康状况不佳之间的关系。一天中单独工作的时间分为4类。MHM是通过询问“在过去的六个月里，你有没有经历过在工作中需要更换卫生巾时无法更换的情况？”来测量的。我们还测量了由于卫生巾不变而导致的皮肤病的经历。独自工作了3年的化妆品销售员据报道，与单独工作不足1小时的人相比，一天中无法更换卫生巾的患病率（患病率[PR]1.84，95%置信区间[CI]1.37-2.46）和因卫生巾未更换而引起的皮肤病（PR 2.06，95%CI:1.18-3.59）更高 h。

Working Alone, Limited Restroom Accessibility, and Poor Menstrual Health Among Cosmetics Saleswomen in South Korea

Menstrual hygiene management (MHM) at work has been neglected in occupational health research despite its importance for female workers’ health. This study investigated the association between hours of working alone and poor menstrual health among 740 cosmetics saleswomen in South Korea. Hours of working alone in a day were classified into 4 categories. MHM was measured by asking “Over the past six months, have you ever experienced that you could not change your sanitary pad when you need to change it at work?” We also measured the experience of dermatopathy due to unchanged sanitary pads. Cosmetics saleswomen who worked alone for 3 h or more in a day reported a higher prevalence of ever being unable to change the sanitary pads (prevalence ratio [PR] 1.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.37–2.46) and dermatopathy due to unchanged sanitary pads (PR 2.06, 95% CI: 1.18–3.59) than those who worked alone less than 1 h in a day.

期刊介绍： New Solutions delivers authoritative responses to perplexing problems, with a worker’s voice, an activist’s commitment, a scientist’s approach, and a policy-maker’s experience. New Solutions explores the growing, changing common ground at the intersection of health, work, and the environment. The Journal makes plain how the issues in each area are interrelated and sets forth progressive, thoughtfully crafted public policy choices. It seeks a conversation on the issues between the grassroots labor and environmental activists and the professionals and researchers involved in charting society’s way forward with the understanding that lack of scientific knowledge is no excuse for doing nothing and that inaction is itself a choice.
