Health care workers (HCWs) are occupationally exposed to a multitude of biological hazards, and among these to the risk of tuberculosis (TB) infection, especially involving individuals working in specific workplace (TB and Chest divisions, Infectious Diseases wards, Microbiology laboratories) and performing thoracic endoscopy and "cough-inducing" procedures. According to national legislation (title VIII D.lgs. 626/94, 1998 Health Minister guide lines document) concerning the control and prevention of TB transmission among HCWs, health care facilities are required to (i) perform an accurate risk assessment and (ii) implement an exposure control plan and worker health surveillance program, thus involving the occupational health professionals.
