Abstract:
Introduction: More than one-third of the young Ethiopian population is most vulnerable to a range of SRH problems. The common problems include teenage pregnancy, early sexual debut, STIs, including HIV/AIDS, unmet need for family planning, early marriage, unsafe abortion, and GBV. Limited access and low utilisation of reproductive health care and services for young people contribute to and exacerbate young people's Reproductive Health problems. Despite Ethiopia's efforts to address the SRH needs and rights of the country's substantially underserved adolescent and youth population, few studies have looked into the access and utilization of sexual and reproductive care among young employees in industrial parks. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the determinants of access and utilisation of sexual and reproductive health services in Hawassa Industrial Park, Ethiopia.
