(*) Part-time (minimum of three hours)
(**) The total dimensioning should be done considering the dimensioning of the 3,501 to 5,000 range, plus the dimensioning for the group(s) of 4,000 or fraction above 2,000.
(***) The employer may choose to hire an occupational nurse part-time, instead of an occupational nursing assistant/technician.

NOTES:
A) Hospitals, clinics, maternity homes, health centers, and similar establishments must hire an occupational nurse full-time if they have more than 500 workers.
B) Due to the nature of SESMT’s duties, supervision of the occupational nursing assistant/technician by an occupational nurse is not required, except when the activity is performed in hospitals, clinics, maternity homes, health centers, and similar establishments.
