    Abstract In the European Union, health surveillance (HS) of electromagnetic fields (EMF)-exposed workers is mandatory according to the Directive 2013/35/EU, aimed at the prevention of known direct biophysical effects and indirect EMF’s effects. Long-term effects are not addressed in the Directive as the evidence of a causal relationship is considered inadequate. Objectives of HS are the prevention or early detection of EMF adverse effects, but scant evidence is hitherto available on the specific procedures. A first issue is that no specific laboratory tests or medical investigations have been demonstrated as useful for exposure monitoring and/or prevention of the effects. Another problem is the existence of workers at particular risk (WPR), i.e., subjects with specific conditions inducing an increased susceptibility to the EMF-related risk (e.g., workers with active medical devices or other conditions); exposures within the occupational exposure limit values (ELVs) are usually adequately protective against EMF’s effects, but lower exposures can possibly induce a health risk in WPR. Consequently, the HS of EMF-exposed workers according to the EU Directive should be aimed at the early detection and monitoring of the recognized adverse effects, as well as an early identification of WPR for the adoption of adequate preventive measures.

    Title translation Occupational risk related to natural optical radiation exposure and skin cancers.
    Abstract Summary: Skin tumors are the most frequent neoplasms worldwide in Caucasian subjects, and UV exposure is one of the most relevant risk factors in their etiology. Cumulative UV exposure is strongly associated with an increased occurrence of both basal and squamous cell carcinomas (i.e. Non melanoma skin cancers - NMSC), while for malignant melanoma the role of UV radiation as risk factors seems more related to intermittent and intense exposures, able to induce repeated sunburns, at young ages. Considering the occupational risk, currently UV radiation, part of the solar radiation (SR) spectrum, is one of the major risks in all jobs including outdoor activities (outdoor work - OW): many studies show high levels of solar UV exposure during OW, nevertheless to date the European, and Italian, legislation on occupational risks prevention does not include specific requirements for SR compleexposure at work, as occupational exposure limits values or workers' health surveillance. This is not coherent with the strong associations showed in scientific literature in particular between the occurrence of NMSC and a history of OW. Accordingly, considering the high exposure levels, the large number of outdoor workers and the strong associations with NMSC, we'd expect a relevant number of occupational skin cancers (OSC) to be reported every year to the national workers' compensation authorities in European countries. Nevertheless, in Italy, as in other European countries, the number of reported UV-induced OSC is much lower than the expected number of OSC, with less than 40 cases reported on average in Italy in last years compared to about a thousand of expected cases incident in outdoor workers per year. An increasing in the reporting of OSC would certainly be important, for the purpose of a better recognition of the real dimension of the phenomenon, and to stimulate the implementation of adequate preventive strategies, in order to guarantee an improved protection of outdoor workers and a more appropriate prevention of the adverse health effects related to solar UV exposure.

    Title translation The development of the new guidelines of the Italian association of medical radioprotection (AIRM) for the protection of the workers exposed to EMF related risks: new approaches and criteria.
    Abstract Summary: An up-to-date knowledge on the occupational risk related to electromagnetic fields (EMF) exposure and its prevention, and on the criteria and methods for an appropriate health surveillance (HS) of exposed workers are highly important, as: EMF are almost ubiquitous; in recent years, relevant changes and advancements in the technologies applied have been observed, e.g. the introduction of new equipment for Magnetic Resonance, involving potentially higher exposures for operators, and the development of the 5G technology, using also EMF bands with millimetric wavelengths, not often applied previously; in Italy the new Legislative Decree 159/2016 has been promulgated, implementing the Directive 2013/35/EU and, accordingly, introducing several substantial changes to the Legislative Decree 81/2008 on safety and health at work, in particular to its fourth chapter of the eight section ("Physical Agents"), entitled "The protection of workers from the risks related to electromagnetic fields exposure". For these reasons, the Italian Association of Medical Radioprotection (AIRM) has fully revised the "Guidelines for the health surveillance of workers exposed to non-ionizing radiation", published in 2012 together with the Italian Society of Occupational Medicine (SIML). Therefore, AIRM involved a multidisciplinary panel of experts, working in accordance to a rigorous scientific methodology, based on the recognized international indications for the development of guidelines (GL) in the medical field, as those proposed by the Guidelines International Network (GIN), the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE), the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE) collaboration. Furthermore, the multidisciplinary panel conducted a systematic review of the scientific literature according to the "Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyzes" (PRISMA) criteria, aimed at answering to specific research questions, including the "PECO" (Populations of interest, Exposures, Comparators, and Outcomes) questions. The final stages of the GL include the revision of the GL-draft from an external group of independent experts, giving also an overall evaluation and opinions on the Recommendations elaborated, so that the panel group can elaborate a final document to be shared again, after agreement among all the experts, with a consensus reached by Delphi method in case of disagreement. The main GL objective is to guide occupational physicians in charge for the HS of EMF exposed workers, providing up-to-date indications on the contents and methods for an adequate HS of the workers, but also on the regulations and standards applicable, on the relevant occupational EMF exposure sources, on the possible adverse effects to be considered, including indications on the biological mechanisms involved, on the conditions of particular susceptibility to the EMF risk, on the criteria to be considered for the evaluation of "fitness to work" in case of occupational EMF exposure and finally also on the contents of adequate information and training for the workers exposed. As a final objective, the AIRM GL on HS of workers exposed to EMF will be proposed for public consultation to the Italian National Guidelines System, as required according to the Law n. 24/2017, also known as the «Gelli law».
