    In stopping the spread of deadly bloodborne pathogens, it is important to understand proper cleaning procedures where exposure occurs.

    Using the proper cleaning equipment, protective gear, and disposal procedures is best practice in preventing contamination and contraction of diseases.

    Always use new gloves and dispose in correct bins in different areas. Also handwashing after handling contaminated items. Labeling contaminated items correctly by color coding bins. As well as as understanding use of chemicals to disinfect the areas properly. Being aware of hidden needles in laundry or in items that are being handled. Any potential exposure, thru cuts, eyes, nose, and mouth, must immediately be reported. Symptoms of certain bloodborne pathogens can appear years later; so conciously following steps to cleaning is imperative to keep you and everyone as safe as possible.

       Janitors, they take a very big role in business! It might not seem like it but they do because they are the ones to maintain a clean work area for all employees and customers. They also have to take on a big job but being careful because they can be exposed to blood-borne pathogens if they don’t use proper PPE , like gloves , googles and masks when handling toxic chemicals.
       If janitors aren’t careful enough they can be exposed to  various illnesses and so they must take precautions to everything they clean because all must be taken as infectious even if it isn’t. All substances and all chemicals must be taken as a threat to our health as well so there for all janitors must wear proper PPE to avoid contact with any substances. 

       Others may think janitorial jobs aren’t important in a work space but they very much are , they are the ones to clean and maintain a clean area for all employees and customers. Because all customers will look at the business cleanness and judge by that , if an area isn’t clean enough they will think no they’re business isn’t good. So janitors are a very important piece of all working fields to maintain a clean environment.
