Occupational physicians can commit two kind of crimes: they can violate rules of safety and health at work with no immediate consequences for the employees but anyway creating a potential danger for them, or they can cause, because of their blame, occupational diseases or accidents at work to the employees. In both cases they can be punished. If we want to understand in detail this kind of responsibility, we must read the Supreme Court's judgements (Supreme Court, 19099/2009; 26539/2008; 20220/2006; 17838/2005; 26439/2007; 24290/2005). The numberless innovations introduced in recent years in the body of occupational safety and health laws called for a different reading of the meaning and the content of occupational physicians' functions, requiring them to collaborate, more than in the past, in the assessment of workplace risks. The responsibility of occupational physicians should be seen also in relation to the responsibility of employers and managers (see the link between health surveillance and art. 18 paragraph 1 letter c) of Legislative Decree no. 81/08). In the occupational safety and health context, the employer and his managers must also require (and ensure) occupational physicians to fulfill their obligations and professional duties.
他们可能违反工作场所的安全与健康规则，虽不会对员工立即造成后果，但无论如何都会给他们带来潜在危险；或者，由于他们的失职，可能导致员工患上职业病或在工作中发生事故。在这两种情况下，他们都可能受到惩罚。如果我们想详细了解这种责任，就必须研读最高法院的判决（最高法院，19099/2009；26539/2008；20220/2006；17838/2005；26439/2007；24290/2005）。近年来，职业安全与健康法律体系引入了无数创新举措，这就需要对职业医生职能的含义和内容进行不同解读，要求他们比过去更多地参与工作场所风险评估。职业医生的责任还应结合雇主和管理人员的责任来看待（见健康监测与第81/08号立法令第18条第1款c项之间的联系）。在职业安全与健康背景下，雇主及其管理人员还必须要求（并确保）职业医生履行其义务和职责。
