Teachers “fragile”. Only those with serious illnesses will be exempt
Fragility
“The concept of frailty – it is written in the circular – must therefore be identified in those conditions of the worker’s state of health with respect to pre-existing pathologies that could determine, in case of contagion, a more serious or fatal outcome.” Regarding age, “this parameter alone, even on the basis of scientific evidence, is not a sufficient element to define a state of frailty”. Rather, “the greater frailty in the older age groups of the population must be understood in conjunction with the presence of comorbidities that may integrate a condition of greater risk.” The circular cites some data, for example 96.1% of the deceased who presented one or more pathologies: “13.9% one, 20.4% two, 61.8% three or more.” The most frequent were “chronic degenerative diseases that affect the cardiovascular, respiratory and renal systems and metabolic diseases”. Furthermore, “important comorbidities have been found, such as those affecting the immune system and oncological ones.”
Periodic medical examinations
Workers should be able to request the employer to activate health surveillance measures. “Requests for visits must be accompanied by medical documentation related to the diagnosed pathology”, is explained in the operative part of the guide. As required by workplace safety laws, some employers must have the figure of a competent doctor, who must take care of employees. Not all schools have it. And where there is no boss, you can direct the worker to Inail or. The circular introduces two other possibilities; in fact, “local health companies or the medical and occupational medicine departments of universities” can also be addressed. Once the functions of the worker have been assessed, the doctor “will issue the judgment of suitability, providing, as a priority, indications for the adoption of more precautionary solutions for the health of the worker or worker against the risk of Sars-Cov-2, reserving the judgment of temporary unsuitability only for cases that do not allow alternative solutions. ”The visit must be repeated periodically.

Because the fragile places of women are growing
The situation of the schools
Competent doctors are making the visits on behalf of the schools, while so far very few have turned to Inail. Only 2 or 300 teachers attended the institute’s clinics. We will see if the possibility introduced by the circular of going to the Local Health Authority and the University will increase the investigations. It is estimated that there are a few thousand workers who could be exempted and for whom there would be an alternate member.
