cromolecole biologiche e/o l’insieme dei metaboliti presenti a livello di singole
cellule e tessuti, stanno rivoluzionando la medicina occupazionale e ambienta-
le, e sono affiancate con sempre maggiore successo agli studi di esposizione
eseguiti attraverso il monitoraggio ambientale e il biomonitoraggio di indicatori
di dose e di effetto. La tutela della salute dei lavoratori si sta ora evolvendo in

promozione della salute, mentre il concetto di benessere sta passando da una
visione fortemente individualistica a un’idea di interdipendenze collettive sociali
e politiche (“One Health”).

Abstract

INAIL has been carrying out information, consultancy and assistance activities
and, since 2010, scientific and technological research, to prevent accidents and
occupational diseases. Correct risk assessment and effective training are the
basis of prevention.

Training that uses virtual reality and serious games can emotionally involve
the worker, ensuring that risk awareness becomes an integral part of daily ope-
rations.

A close synergy between occupational hygiene and occupational medicine
skills is essential to address increasingly challenging exposure and risk asses-
sments.

Omic approaches, capable of globally evaluating an entire class of biological
macromolecules and/or the set of metabolites present at the level of single cells
and tissues, are revolutionizing occupational and environmental medicine, and
are increasingly successfully supported by exposure studies performed through

environmental monitoring and biomonitoring of dose and effect indicators. Wor-
kers’ health protection is now evolving into health promotion, while the concept
of well-being is moving from a strongly individualistic vision to an idea of col-
lective social and political interdependencies (One Health).
