Pregnancy protection
During pregnancy, people are more sensitive to harmful substances and conditions linked to their work environment. Some physical, chemical and biological agents can interfere with the development of the fetus and cause miscarriages of malformations. Therefore, pregnant and breastfeeding people are allowed specific protections aimed to protect their health and the health of their child.
