Viene illustrato un documento di indirizzo operativo, la cui finalità è quella di tutelare la lavoratrice in gravidanza,puerperio o allattamento da attività lavorative che possono costituire un rischio per la sua salute e per quella delbambino. La sua stesura è stata elaborata da un gruppo tecnico formato da alcuni operatori dei Servizi di Prevenzionee Sicurezza negli Ambienti di Lavoro (PSAL) dell’Area Vasta 2 dell’ASUR Marche: medici, assistenti sanitarieed infermiere. Esso rappresenta uno strumento operativo utile nella fase essenziale della valutazione dei rischi inazienda ed è indirizzato a coloro che sono chiamati, con diversi obblighi e responsabilità, a tutelare la lavoratrice madre.Il documento è costituito da due parti “Tabella dei rischi” e “Schede Tecniche” che sono funzionalmente collegatefra loro. Nella “Tabella Rischi” sono analizzati con criteri di massima cautela i possibili rischi presenti negli ambientilavorativi per la donna in gravidanza o nel post-partum. Il gruppo tecnico ha inteso dare per ciascun rischio un proprioindirizzo di operatività in rapporto alla normativa vigente, alle conoscenze scientifiche attuali, alle Linee di indirizzodi altre Regioni avvalendosi nella stesura definitiva dell’intero documento del contributo della sezione regionaleMarche della SIMLII. Nella seconda parte del documento sono presenti le “Schede Tecniche” dei 34 settori produttivipiù rappresentati nel nostro territorio, in cui sono riportate, per ogni settore analizzato, le principali mansionie gli eventuali rischi presenti. Questo documento di indirizzo operativo rappresenta l’inizio di un percorso comuneper una più ampia attività promozionale e informativa a tutela della salute riproduttiva della lavoratrice madre.
