Employees of "small business" (PI) are subject to greater risks than employees of larger companies and the protection of their health is more complex. The PI have difficulty having a "risk control" and the SSL management failures are attributed to specific structural and organizational characteristics of the work, the difficulty in finding and applying preventive measures, from behavior and inadequate skills of both employers and workers. These features make it much more difficult for small and micro enterprises to create and maintain a safe and healthy work environment.
The Occupational Medicine (MC) of IP is then called to an 'extra' work as it is often the only figure with specific expertise in the field of prevention and health protection, plays a proactive role in supporting, consulting on the issue of prevention in areas of work often unsanitary and not ergonomic. Thinking to more effective models of health surveillance, establish quality standards and best practices in the professional activity of the MC is a passage no longer avoidable.
