Background and Aim: Following the Covid-19 epidemic and the great threats it posed to global health, many researchers have begun to study the field, and numerous guidelines have been issued by international organizations on high-risk occupations and the need for occupational health. The purpose of this study was to investigate into ways to avoid and control Covid-19 illness in the workplace because of the disease's high prevalence in the nation. Methods: In reviewing and writing this article, articles indexed in SID, SCOPUS, PUBMED, MAGIRAN databases, as well as library resources were used. Results: Studies have shown that many jobs, including health care workers, garbage collection and disposal workers, and public transportation workers, are at risk. Conclusion: All sections of society, including employers, business owners, workers and employees, must be fully prepared to fight the corona virus, even if the corona epidemic has not yet reached that country or region. This can be effective in reducing missed work days, staff absences and preventing the spread of the virus in the community.
