Abstract

The risk of contagion is presented for the most important economic branches in the generation of employment in the department of Atlántico, based on the degree of exposure to diseases and infections and the physical proximity in the development of their main trades. The contagion risk calculations are made taking into account the information from the Occupational Information Network (O*Net) of the United States Department of Labor and adjusted to the reality of the department's labor market. The results show that the supervision of compliance with biosafety protocols presents a complex scenario since the participation of SMEs is high in the business fabric.
