Proper Bloodborne Pathogen training is vital to any and all janitorial companies since there is a high probability that a team member will find themselves addressing a situation involving potentially infectious bodily fluids.

A properly trained team member will be in a position to recognize the inherent risks involved with possible exposures, the proper Personal Protective Equipment needed to safely perform the work,  required reporting, and proper disposal of dangerous or contaminated items.   Maintaining proper safety guidelines will ensure that your staff and customers remain healthy and safe.  Proper training will also ensure compliance with safety regulations and limit liability for failing to properly train team members.

Bloodborne pathogen training should be considered a starting point to the long road of continued training fro both employers and employees.   Protecting the health of one's team members should be the priority for any reputable business owner or supervisor!
