    Abstract:
    In animal research facilities, personnel may develop allergies or serious health problems as a result of exposure to chemical or biological agents. Medical surveillance is essential for evaluating the health of prospective or current employees and determining their risk of exposure to occupational hazards. The author discusses the role of institutional medical surveillance programs and presents considerations for implementing such programs.
