A case-working history is a document which contains all the information about workers' surveillance and health control, so it should take in account not only those data which are often collected in a case history, but also the posts and risks the worker could have been exposed to during their working life in order to establish a relationship between cause and effect with the pathology they may present at a given time. It has a multiple usability: epidemiologic analysis, health surveillance and teaching. It should defend no discrimination in general, and particularly to immigrant workers following the guidelines given for health surveillance. The access to the data in a case-working history is established by law. It is not only a confidential document, which should be under the control of health staff, but it is also considered to be a file which should be kept for five years after the worker has resigned, except for those situations in which workers are exposed to special risks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
