Work Exposure Control Plan

19 May 2020 7:03 AM | Deleted user

Keep in mind the Universal Precautions

Universal Precautions is the concept of treating all human/primate blood and other body fluids, tissues and cells (including cell lines) as if they were known to be infectious for bloodborne pathogens.No matter what your job is, you need to be aware of how hazardous bloodborne pathogens are and know how to protect yourself. 

The employer must provide Biohazard Exposure training for all employees whose line of work may present risk of occupational exposure and each department or center should write a former plan detailing the proper protocols for handling potential occupational exposures or contamination involving biohazardous substances for their individual area as well as provide training for employees who are at risk for occupational exposure.  Also, Each department or center's protocol must include proper packaging, labeling, and delivery of biohazardous wastes to the College Health Center.

Do not eat, drink, or apply cosmetics, spray fragrance or  lip balm in work areas where there is a reasonable probability of occupational exposure. All procedures involving blood or other potentially infectious materials shall be performed in such a manner as to minimize splashing, spraying, spattering, and generation of droplets of these substances.

Keep in mind the OPIM concept.

Good Luck!
