Background: SARS-CoV-2 has come to transform the way people live and work around the world. From December 2019 to the end of May 2020, more than 466 million cases have been reported, with just over 6 million deaths worldwide. Since the main form of transmission is contact with infectious droplets from person to person, activities that require physical interaction between individuals represent a greater risk, such as airports. Experience from infectious outbreaks of SARS, Ebola, and MERS-CoV suggests that it should be paid attention to air and land port workers. Objective: to characterize the risk factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection in workers at the El Dorado / Luis Carlos Galán international airport. Methods: mixed study comprising a cross-sectional study and a descriptive qualitative study Results: The project was developed between June and September 2020. It was possible to establish the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in workers. Also, factors associated with the transmission of the virus in the workplace were established. The elements related to individual risk perception were also described.
