The Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) applies to all workplaces in which employees may have contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials. The purpose of the BBP Standard is to reduce exposure and transmission of blood and body fluids to employees to prevent the contraction of diseases that can have severe consequences. OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogen (29 CFR 1910.1030) requirements include: a Bloodborne Pathogen Written Plan, Exposure Determination, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Disposal, Housekeeping and Laundry Plans, Decontaminants, and Online Training with Certificates, by purchasing a OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Program.
