EVALUATION OF EMPLOYEES WORKING IN SOCIAL ENTERPRISES WHERE HOOKAH IS USED IN TERMS OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY
Abstract
Hookah, with its aromatic tobacco content and intriguing apparatus, has shown a tendency of worldwide and national spread. More effort should be paid to chemicals that release dangerous substances such as nicotine into the environment, both globally and in our country, and changes in terminology connected to the problem should be examined. Hookah, which can be served in cafeterias along with various consumption items, is one of the elements that should be considered and discussed within the scope of public health. The issue of hookah smoking should be emphasized not only from the perspective of the enterprises or the consumer but also from the perspective of intermediate personnel. In this context, the situation of these employees, particularly exposed as passive smokers, has been one of the noteworthy aspects. In our paper, the exposure of employees working in hookah presentation services to hookah smoke will be examined from the perspective of occupational health and safety. Information will be provided about the basic components of hookah and its chemical effects, and the potential health problems caused by its components will be discussed. Findings obtained through a descriptive statistical analysis of a survey will be presented. In the study conducted for employees who prepare hookah for presentation and follow the smoking process, precautions that can be taken will be discussed, and the results obtained will be presented in the final section.
