This study is especially executed to coordinate, spread and quicken improvements in Employees safety within the hospitals. Safety discipline is the coordination of actions to avoid harm to workers caused by the healthcare tactic itself. For both lab workers and the patients, they treat, protecting laboratory employees from workplace injuries and illnesses is vital. Healthy and well-rested lab personnel are crucial for ongoing monitoring, compassionate patient care, and effective advocacy. In laboratory settings, there are a variety of workplace stressors that can lead to illnesses and injuries. Throughout the day, lab personnel must meet significant physical and psychological demands, as well as work in a potentially hazardous setting. Working in a lab can be hazardous to one's health in the short and long term. Among the health impacts include musculoskeletal injuries and disorders, other injuries, infections, mental health changes, cardiovascular, metabolic, and neo plastic diseases. The goal of this paper is to investigate the workplace safety of lab workers in the Cethar Hospital. A questionnaire was framed and circulated to the employees of that Cethar hospital in order to study the extent of work safety among Lab employees. The expected outcome of this paper is the improvement in already existing workplace safety for lab workers in the Cethar Hospital. The findings are also expected to pave the way for future research work.
