Il rischio biologico nei luoghi di lavoro: aspetti e normativa
[Biological risk at workplaces: aspects and legislation]Biological risk at workplaces requires a complex approach in relation to risk assessment and risk management, due to: variety of biological agents, working environments and working techniques; lack of limit values; workers with defective immune systems; worker’s perception. The Italian legislation is in line with European directives and covers both the field of prevention in the workplace that the medico-legal field (recognition and reporting of occupational diseases). While at workplace the employer is responsible of assessment and management of biological risk and the occupational physician of health surveillance, in notifiable occupational diseases is involved every doctor. Occupational disease by biological agents are frequently caused by accidents, in which is equally involved every doctor. Also, the lesions induced by occupational diseases and some accidents are considered by our legislation offenses prosecutable ex officio and every doctor is obliged to their report

L’ ergonomia e il microclima nell’ ambiente di lavoro d’ ufficio: che fare per migliorarli?
Sono individuate le problematiche relative alla prevenzione dei fattori di rischio individuabili nel lavoro d' ufficio. Particolare attenzione è dedicata: al microclima e agli adattamenti dell' organismo alla variazioni dei principali parametri microclimatici; agli aspetti relativi alla corretta progettazione ergonomica della postazione lavorativa al VDT per la prevenzioine delle patologie specifiche a carico soprattutto del rachide, dell' arto superiore e dell' arto inferiore
Il rischio biologico nei luohghi di lavoro: aspetti e normativa
Biological risk at workplaces requires a complex approach in relation to risk assessment
and risk management, due to: variety of biological agents, working environments
and working techniques; lack of limit values; workers with defective immune systems; worker’s perception. The Italian legislation is in line with European
directives and covers both the field of prevention in the workplace and the medico-legal field (recognition and reporting of occupational diseases). While at workplace the employer is responsible of assessment and management of biological
risk and the occupational physician of health surveillance, in notifiable occupational
diseases every doctor is involved. Occupational diseases by biological agents are frequently caused by accidents, in which every doctor is equally involved.
Also, the lesions induced by occupational diseases and some accidents are considered by our legislation offenses prosecutable ex officio and every doctor is obliged to report them
La pubblicazione "MANAGEMENT, QUALITY OF HEALTH AND OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HOSPITAL ORGANIZATION: IS INTEGRATION POSSIBLE? (2011)" è stata riconosciuta fra i Top 20 articles della letteratura scientifica internazionale pubblicati sull'argomento dalla BioMedLib,motore di ricerca di articoli biomedici della "NATIONAL LIBRARY OF MEDICINE - MEDLINE®.
The evolution of the national and European legislation has progressively transformed the working environments into organized environments. Specific models for its management are being proposed, which should be integrated into general management strategies. In the case of hospitals this integration should consider the
peculiar organizational complexity, where the management of the occupational risk needs to be integrated with clinical risk management and economic risk management.
Resources management should also consider that Occupational Medicine has not a direct monetary benefit for the organisation, but only indirect health consequences in terms of reduction of accidents and occupational diseases. The deep and simultaneous
analysis of the current general management systems and the current management methods of occupational safety and health protection allows one to hyphotesise a possible integration between them. For both of them the Top Management is the main responsible of the quality management strategies and the use of specific documents in
the managerial process, such as the document of risks evaluation in the occupational management and the quality manual in the general management, is of paramount importance. An integrated management has also the scope to pursue a particular kind of
quality management, where ethics and job satisfaction are innovative, as established by recent European guidelines, management systems and national legislations
