The epidemic of COVID-19, which started to appear since December 2019, has affected the world. The first case was detected in our country on March 11, 2020. Healthcare professionals are the highest-risk occupational groups against this virus. During the epidemic in China, more than 1,500 health workers were infected in the first three months. Due to this high risk of exposure, proper use of personal protective equipment such as goggles, bones, protective clothes and masks becomes important. In this review, methods of reducing occupational transmission risks of healthcare workers were evaluated by using occupational health and safety principles in COVID-19 outbreak.
