The work of the police force has certain peculiarities that require models of risk management that aim not only at the prevention of risks to which each operator is daily exposed but also at promoting healthy habits that can counteract the risk of chronic and degenerative diseases that affect their working capacity. The Italian Society of Occupational Medicine and Industrial Hygiene has taken on the task of translating this approach into guidelines for medical surveillance of workers.
