Bloodborne Pathogens are infectious microorganisms that are passed through bodily fluids.  These microorganisms can transfer a variety of different viruses and diseases.  These viruses and diseases can cause a variety of different illnesses and even death. 

The safety of all employees and customers is of the upmost importance for any business.  The key to this safety is knowledge because the better informed your employees are the safer they are which keeps your customers safe from these viruses and diseases.

Employees and employers both should be properly informed on proper OSHA standards for Bloodborne pathogens. The importance of PPE is mandatory and should be worn regardless if area is safe or not, and/or if the person is experienced or not. PPE is to be worn at all times. 

It is very important to have a OSHA control plan, which helps determine what to do before and after any exposure. Proper control plans show in detail how to properly clean up after potentially hazardous materials as well as how to properly dispose of such materials. Having a OSHA control plan could save many lives including your own. 

It is important that every employee and employer receives proper training and safety instruction. OSHA provides guidelines to be followed at all times. As well as a document that should be used in any incident report related to any Bloodborne pathogen exposures.

In the janitorial industry, we will inherently come into contact with various diseases, ranging from the cold and flu to HIV to the now common Covid. It is our responsibility to stop the spread of these diseases. Doing this will not only keep the public safe, but also protect ourselves and our employees. 

Giving our employees and staff the proper knowledge and protection is vital in ensuring that our responsibility to them and the public is upheld. Teaching them the proper techniques of cleaning, disinfecting, and disposal of potentially hazardous materials (such as needles/trash) is key in our mission. Arming our employees with the proper equipment is also necessary. Without the proper knowledge and equipment, they risk exposing themselves and others to blood borne pathogens that could be hiding anywhere.

The health of  our employees and the public is of the upmost importance. We are all exposed to diseases in our everyday lives, whether we know it or not. Because we cannot see diseases, we must treat every situation as though it is present.
