preventing the spread of the disease. The study substantiates the importance of measures
such as the use of necessary protective equipment, adherence to infection control protocols,
regular medical examinations, and ongoing training in occupational safety, due to the high
risk of tuberculosis infection among medical workers. It also emphasizes the need for
effective ventilation systems, isolation measures in health care facilities, and immunization
of employees in risk groups to reduce the spread of the disease. The abstract highlights the
relevance of ensuring the safety of medical workers in the process of combating
tuberculosis and the effectiveness of a systematic approach.
