lüll Occupational infection in Korea Chung YK; Ahn YS; Jeong JSJ Korean Med Sci 2010[Dec]; 25 (Suppl): S53-61Occupational infection is a human disease caused by work-associated exposure to microbial agents through human and environmental contact. According to the literature, occupational infection was the third leading cause of occupational disease (861 cases, 8.0%), and health care, agricultural, forestry, and fishery workers were risk groups in Korea. In addition, most high-risk groups have not been protected by workers' compensation, which could lead to underestimation of the exact spectrum and magnitude of the problem, and may also result in a lack of development and implementation of occupational infection management. Through a review of national guidelines and documentations on prevention and control of occupational infection, a management strategy would promote adherence to worker safety regulations if it is explicit with regard to the agent and mode of infection in each of the high-risk groups.|Adult[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Aged, 80 and over[MESH]|Bacterial Infections/*epidemiology[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Mycoses/*epidemiology[MESH]|Occupational Diseases/*epidemiology[MESH]|Occupational Exposure/adverse effects[MESH]|Occupational Health/legislation & jurisprudence[MESH]|Protozoan Infections/*epidemiology[MESH]|Republic of Korea/epidemiology[MESH]|Risk Factors[MESH]|Virus Diseases/*epidemiology[MESH]|Workers' Compensation[MESH] |
