Risk assessment (RA) represents the first step to ensure the protection of the workers' health in all work sectors, production and services included. For this reason RA has become a legal duty for the occupational physician in his/her professional activity. The basic concepts of RA have been developed as a formal procedure for the management of chemical risks but they are currently applied to protect human health against all types of occupational and environmental risk factors. In the construction industry, in particular, chemical risk assessment is specially difficult due to the complexity of the working condition, and the variability and multiplicity of exposure. The critical aspects of RA in the construction industry will be discussed here, in the attempt to highlight how the occupational physician, making use of traditional and new tools, including biological monitoring, can address and partly overcome them.
风险评估（RA）是确保包括生产和服务在内的所有工作部门中工人健康得到保护的第一步。因此，风险评估已成为职业医生在其职业活动中的一项法定义务。风险评估的基本概念最初是作为一种管理化学风险的正式程序而发展起来的，但目前已应用于保护人类健康免受各种职业和环境风险因素的影响。特别是在建筑行业，由于工作条件的复杂性以及接触的变异性和多样性，化学风险评估尤为困难。本文将讨论建筑行业风险评估的关键方面，试图强调职业医生如何利用包括生物监测在内的传统和新工具来应对并部分克服这些方面的问题。
