The tuberculin skin test (TST) is used for the identification of latent tuberculosis (TB) infection. This study aimed to evaluate the TST results of healthy employees of different departments in chaharmahal province, Iran. Materials and Methods: This study was done on 1,424 healthy employees from 49 different departments in Chaharmahal Province.
