Resumo(s)
The SDGs 3 and 8 highlight the need to guarantee healthy lives and encourage well-being and decent work for all. WHO recognized as priority settings for action the workplaces reporting more than 1.2 million deaths annually due to occupational risks. Only a small fraction of the general workforce has access to occupational health surveillance. HERA from the EU presented a priority list of top health threats that require coordination of measures at the EU level, since they have the potential of spreading across Member States: pathogens with high pandemic potential; chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats; and threats resulting from antimicrobial resistance. WHO releases a list of fungal priority pathogens but without considering the toxicological relevance. In all European countries employers are obliged by regulation to assess and prevent exposure to occupational risks (Directive 89/391/EEC). Directive 2000/54/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of September 18, 2000, sets the rules regarding risk assessment if exposure to biological agents cannot be avoided (2000/54/EC, 2000). Scientific evidence associates occupational exposure to bioaerosols (bacteria, fungi, and metabolites) with health outcomes.
