Tuberculosis Requirements

California law requires that school staff working with children and community college students be free of infectious tuberculosis (TB). These updated laws reflect current federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations for targeted TB testing. 

AB 1667, effective January 1, 2015, SB 792 on September 1, 2016, and SB 1038on January 1, 2017, require a TB risk assessment be administered and if risk factors are identified, a TB test and examination be performed by a healthcare provider to determine that the person is free of infectious tuberculosis. 

TB Risk Assessment and Examination forms must be updated every 4 years. 

How do I go about submitting my updated TB Risk Assessment/Examination Form?

BUSD volunteers & employees should submit their updated TB Risk Assessment and/or Examination Forms to the TB PORTAL.

Updated forms should not be submitted directly to Human Resources or any BUSD employees.
