The aim is to determine the profile of female workers who have had sick leave, to identify the main causes of absenteeism and to assess work capacity. This is a cross-sectional questionnaire study of female garment workers in the Monastir Tunisia region who have been absent for a period of 15 days during 2017 and 2018. ¿ ¿ The evaluation of work capacity is carried out using the WAI score. Results: The prevalence of absent employees is 8.1%. The average age of female workers is 35.2 ± 7.2 years. The majority of employees have more than 10 years' seniority (70.5%). The average WAI score is 35.8% ± 4.9. 91.4% of those absent have an average work capacity. Poor working capacity concerned the oldest (p=0.17), oldest (p=0.04) and longest absentees (p=0.39). Conclusion: The implementation of a prevention approach must focus on raising awareness among all the players in the company and improving safety.
