Harmful biological factors accumulated in the ambient atmosphere are a very important and increasingly recognised problem of both occupational medicine and public health. The quantitative and qualitative assessment of harmful biological agents in the working environment is a very important element of the exposure assessment and therefore of an assessment of workers' health risks. In 2018, a pilot study on the microbiological quality of air was carried out at two facilities of the Polish Navy.
