National Research Council

The National Academy of Sciences is a private, nonprofit, self-perpetuating

society of distinguished scholars engaged in scientific and engineering research,
dedicated to the furtherance of science and technology and to their use for
the general welfare. Upon the authority of the charter granted to it by the
Congress in 1863, the Academy has a mandate that requires it to advise the
federal government on scientific and technical matters. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts
is president of the National Academy of Sciences.
The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964, under the
charter of the National Academy of Sciences, as a parallel organization of
outstanding engineers. It is autonomous in its administration and in the selection
of its members, sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility
for advising the federal government. The National Academy of Engineering
also sponsors engineering programs aimed at meeting national needs, encourages
education and research, and recognizes the superior achievements of engineers.
Dr. William A. Wulf is president of the National Academy of Engineering.
The Institute of Medicine was established in 1970 by the National Academy
of Sciences to secure the services of eminent members of appropriate professions
in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the public.
The Institute acts under the responsibility given to the National Academy of
Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the federal government
and, upon its own initiative, to identify issues of medical care, research, and
education. Dr. Kenneth I. Shine is president of the Institute of Medicine.
The National Research Council was organized by the National Academy of
Sciences in 1916 to associate the broad community of science and technology
with the Academy’s purposes of furthering knowledge and advising the federal
government. Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by
the Academy, the Council has become the principal operating agency of both
the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering
in providing services to the government, the public, and the scientific and
engineering communities. The Council is administered jointly by both Academies
and the Institute of Medicine. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts and Dr. William A. Wulf
are chairman and vice chairman, respectively, of the National Research Council.

Acknowledgments

In developing this report, the committee and staff benefited from the
expertise and experience of many individuals. In particular, we learned
much from the presenters and participants in the workshop and public
hearing held in August, 2000. At the committee’s request following the
workshop, Ronald Bayer further developed his presentation about ethical
issues, and Lisa Brousseau, Rachel Stricof, and Barry Farr also provided
additional information or other assistance. Appendix A lists the work-
shop participants, presenters, and agendas.
The authors of the commissioned background papers presented in
Appendixes B (John J. Bass, Jr.), C (Thomas M. Daniel), D (Keith F.
Woeltje), E (Scott Burris and Jamie Crabtree), and F (Phillip Harber, Scott
Barnhart, Douglas Hornick, and Robert Spear) made essential contribu-
tions to this report through their evidence reviews, and their extensive
discussions with committee members and staff. Their ability to develop
the evidence reviews on a tight schedule for discussion at the workshop
was especially appreciated. Dr. Daniel also patiently allowed us to draw
on his deep expertise and decades of experience in research on tuber-
culosis. Consultants Michael Tapper and Lawrence Geiter provided expert
advice and information about many issues. M. Donald Whorton, the
liaison to the committee from the IOM’s Board on Health Promotion and
Disease Prevention, likewise provided useful insights about the com-
mittee’s deliberations and analyses.
The project officer at the National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health (NIOSH), Greg Wagner, always responded promptly to ques-

tions. Others at the agency who provided information and explanations

about NIOSH research and statements included Paul Jensen and Christo-
pher Coffey. At the Division of Tuberculosis Elimination (which is also
part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC]), Renee
Ridzon and Amy Curtis patiently answered many questions about CDC
data, guidelines, and procedures. The weekly summary of news about
tuberculosis developed by John Seggerson was an invaluable resource.
At the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA),
Amanda Edens was unfailingly helpful in answering questions about the
proposed rule. She and Claudia Thurber helped clarify aspects of OSHA’s
legislative, administrative, and judicial framework and differences be-
tween the language of the 1997 proposed rule and the 1994 CDC guide-
lines. Others at OSHA who provided useful information or explanations
included Susan Sherman for her review of legal matters, Steven Bayard,
Marthe Kent, and John Rainwater.

IN THE
WORKPLACE
 Summary

Tuberculosis is a treatable, communicable disease that has two gen-

eral states: latent infection and active disease. With few exceptions, only
those who develop active tuberculosis in the lungs or larynx can infect
others, usually by coughing, sneezing, or otherwise expelling tiny infec-
tious particles that someone else inhales.
Although tuberculosis is still a major killer in poor countries, 50
years of effective drug treatment has greatly reduced the toll that the
disease takes in developed countries. Nonetheless, after more than 30
years of declines in reported tuberculosis cases and deaths, the mid-
1980s and early 1990s saw a reversal of that trend in the United States.
This resurgence of tuberculosis, which included several outbreaks of the
disease among hospital patients and workers, prompted considerable
concern among health care workers, administrators, public health pro-
fessionals, and policymakers. Renewed public and private efforts to
control the disease followed. These efforts included the initiation of a
rulemaking process by the federal Occupational Safety and Health Ad-
ministration (OSHA) that led, in 1997, to the publication of proposed
regulations on occupational tuberculosis.
In November 1999, the U.S. Congress requested that the National
Academy of Sciences undertake a short-term study to examine the risk of
tuberculosis among health care workers and the possible effects of federal
guidelines and regulations intended to protect workers from this risk.
Between April and September 2000, a committee of the Institute of Medi-
cine (IOM), the health policy arm of the Academy, investigated three
questions:

1
2 TUBERCULOSIS IN THE WORKPLACE

1. Are health care and selected other categories of workers at a greater

risk of infection, disease, or mortality due to tuberculosis than others in
the communities in which they reside?
2. What is known about the implementation and effects of the 1994
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for the pre-
vention of tuberculosis in health care facilities?
3. What will be the likely effects on rates of tuberculosis infection,
disease, and mortality of an anticipated OSHA standard to protect work-
ers from occupational exposure to tuberculosis?

The committee’s charge from Congress for this limited study did not
include the development of recommendations for regulatory policy. It
also did not include an evaluation of the costs or cost-effectiveness of
implementing a standard.
Overall, the committee concludes that tuberculosis remains a threat
to some health care, correctional facility, and other workers in the United
States. Although the risk has been decreasing in recent years, vigilance is
still needed within hospitals, prisons, and similar workplaces, as well as
in the community at large. Fortunately, tuberculosis control measures
recommended by the CDC in response to tuberculosis outbreaks in health
care facilities appear to have been effective. Available evidence suggests
that where tuberculosis is uncommon or where basic infection control
measures are in place, the occupational risk to health care workers of
tuberculosis now approaches community levels, which have been declin-
ing. The primary risk to workers today comes from patients, inmates, or
others with unsuspected and undiagnosed infectious tuberculosis.
The committee also concludes that an OSHA standard on occupa-
tional tuberculosis can have a positive effect if it meets three basic condi-
tions: (1) it is consistent with tuberculosis control measures that appear to
be effective, (2) it increases or sustains the level of compliance with those
measures, and (3) it allows appropriate flexibility for organizations to
adopt tuberculosis control measures appropriate to the level of risk facing
workers. The committee expects that a standard will meet the first two
conditions by sustaining or increasing the use of effective tuberculosis
control measures. The committee is, however, concerned that if a final
OSHA standard follows the 1997 proposed rule, it may not meet the third
condition of allowing reasonable flexibility to adopt measures appropri-
ate to the level of risk.

CDC GUIDELINES AND THE PROPOSED OSHA RULE

1994 CDC Guidelines
In 1994, CDC published its most extensive guidelines for preventing
the transmission of tuberculosis in health care facilities (including health
SUMMARY 3

care units in prisons, jails, and certain other settings). The guidelines
present a three-level hierarchy of tuberculosis control recommendations
comprising

1. administrative controls (in particular, protocols for early identifica-

tion, isolation, and treatment of individuals with infectious tuberculosis),
2. engineering controls (in particular, negative-pressure ventilation of
isolation rooms for patients with infectious tuberculosis), and
3. personal respiratory protection (primarily use of specially designed
facemasks to prevent inhalation of infectious particles).

The CDC guidelines, which followed statements issued in 1982 and

1990, also set forth a risk assessment process that defines five categories of
facilities (or areas of facilities) based on the risk of tuberculosis transmis-
sion. The guidelines recommend fewer tuberculosis control measures for
the facilities in the “minimal” and “very low” risk categories. The risk
assessment process for a facility covers the profile of tuberculosis in the
community, the numbers of tuberculosis patients examined or treated in
different areas of the facility, and the tuberculin skin test conversion rates
for workers in different areas of the facility or in different job categories.
The process also takes into account evidence of person-to-person trans-
mission of tuberculosis resulting in active disease as well as information
from medical record reviews or workplace observations that suggests
possible problems in tuberculosis control measures. In the summer of
2000, CDC began a reassessment of its guidelines for health care facilities,
and the results are expected in mid-2002.

1997 Proposed OSHA Rule

When the committee began work in April 2000, OSHA expected to
publish the final standard on occupational tuberculosis in July. Subse-
quently, OSHA indicated that publication would likely occur by the end
of the year 2000, which would follow the committee’s final meeting in
September 2000. Thus, the committee had to undertake its analyses with-
out knowing the content of the final regulations. It is possible that the new
Administration will not issue any final standard.
By law, OSHA can directly regulate only private employers and, with
certain restrictions, federal agencies. Through agreements with states that
choose to participate, OSHA regulations may also be applied to employ-
ees of state and local governments. About half the states have entered into
such agreements.
In its 1997 proposed rule on occupational tuberculosis, OSHA fol-
lowed the 1994 CDC guidelines in most respects. Also, OSHA concluded
that the CDC guidelines in their original form were not specific and direc-
