Employees and Bloodbrne Pathogens

30 Mar 2020 7:23 PM | Deleted user

        Its a top priority in the cleaning field that all Staff and Employees understand Bloodborne Pathogens and the measures of safety and precautions taken in order to protect themselves against any virus or disease they can contract if they don't follow the necessary guidelines.

        Bloodborne Pathogens are easily transferred to a person. Proper steps must be taken to prevent the spread of diseases or viruses such as AIDS, HPV, Hepatitis and corona virus. Wearing the proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as Gloves and protective eye wear reduces the risk of exposure. Also implementing such standards as No eating, drinking, smoking or applying lip balm in areas that you may have exposure to blood or other bodily fluids helps minimize the risk. After handling and cleaning hazardous materials proper disposal is a key factor. You must follow al bio-hazard guidelines so you don't come in contact or potentially put someone else at risk.                                                                                                                            If your properly equip your Employees and Staff with the knowledge and training as required by IJCSA & OSHA then practicing proper steps will provide a safe work environment and prevent contamination for everyone involved.
