OSHA's final bloodborne pathogens standard. Part I.
The Bloodborne Pathogens Standard is the first standard promulgated by OSHA that addresses a biological hazard in the workplace. This Standard applies to all workers with occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials. To achieve compliance, the employer must determine and document exposure. Also, a written exposure control plan must be available that stipulates the use of appropriate methods of compliance such as engineering controls, work practice controls, and the use of personal protective equipment.
