Healthcare personnel (HCP) constitute a high-risk group for SARS-CoV-2 infection. We estimated their risk of infection per hospital characteristics. Factors significantly associated with an increased risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection were: working in a non-referral hospital compared to a COVID-19 referral hospital, working in a hospital with a high number of employees, and working in a hospital with an increased number of COVID-19 patients. Our study revealed gaps in infection control in the non-referral hospitals. There is an urgent need for continuous training in infection control practices. Compliance of HCP with the use of personal protective equipment should also be addressed.
