title: [Building of a method for the assessment of work related risks at the ULSS n.1 company of Belluno].
abstract: This paper describes an experimental method of risk assessment in a public hospital. A uniform method of danger checking out, valid for all hospital units was developed, and a objective and standardized system of occupational risk assessment was implemented. In fact, the quantification of risk is expressed in a numerical code that allows computerization of the collected data. The method is based on check list for the danger detection, on worker's data sheet, on criteria for risk factors encoding and for risk quantification. Vantage of this system is applicability into all the hospital units, even in presence of different occupational risks. Another vantage is the involvement of staff in the management of work safety.
