As cleaning employees we need to be thinking of the dangers of bloodborne pathogens. As well as the diseases these pathogens can carry. Thinking and knowing of them is not enough though. You need to know how to identify potential hazards and how to deal with these situations safely and correct. This course did just that.

   Without the proper training you or your coworkers could be in danger of exposing yourself to life threatening Pathogens. Pathogens can cause lots of diseases two of the main ones being HIV and HBV. These diseases can be contracted by simple exposure to blood, human waist, or even spit and mucus. That is why it is important to know the proper procedure when you come in contact with blood and other human fluids.

  As an employer, I will make sure I have proper procedures in place and the proper training to reduce the chances of incidences. I will makes sure my employees understand that small health issues could be symptoms to something bigger. Our company will be sure to take incidences very serious and always act as if an object or area is contaminated even if it is unlikely. The smallest chance is not worth someones well being when you can just take the right precautions and be safe.
