    The objective was to determine the occupational risk factors for the staff working in the clinical laboratory of a hospital in Lima, studying the risks frequently encountered in the workplace. This study was conducted with part of the staff using questionnaires and observational forms validated by expert judgment, following a prospective descriptive study design. Our research focused on the existing occupational risks in various hospitals and findings related to our investigation. We found that in the workplace, we are governed by biological, chemical, and physical risks, all of which pose a high danger to the healthcare professional's contact. The goal of this research is to raise awareness about the potential risks to which we are exposed and to reduce the probability of accidents through supervision, better guidelines, training, and updates in our professional field.
