Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the occupational risk factors that affect oral symptoms in hospital facility workers. This study surveyed 627 hospital facility temp·contract workers in the metropolitan area from November 17, 2020 to May 20, 2021. The results of the study indicate that oral symptoms were higher among workers with high risk of musculoskeletal disorders and injuries. Also, symptoms of oral mucosa, temporomandibular joint disorder, and dry mouth were high in the areas of job insecurity and organizational injustice. As the occupational risk factors and occupational stress of workers increased, the risk of oral symptoms increased. In the future, this study can be used as basic data for improving oral health policies to better the oral health of hospital facility workers.
