The annual tuberculin screening (also known as TST and PPD) and respirator fit testing has begun.<\/p>\n

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, only certain team members will need annual tuberculin screening tests based on their occupational risk. Infection Prevention has identified areas with high risk that will require annual tuberculin screening.\u00a0To be compliant, Cooper team members who do not<\/u> need a tuberculin screening test will still have to complete an in-person, written risk assessment.<\/p>\n

When you arrive at the test site, the on-site Employee Health nurse will determine if you need a tuberculin screening test or a risk assessment.<\/p>\n

To view the 2024 schedule, click here<\/a><\/strong>. If you do not see your location on the schedule, Employee Health will be in contact with your manager to arrange for a written risk assessment.<\/p>\n
