Bloodborne Pathogens in Commercial and Industrial Facilities

Our Bloodborne Pathogens in Commercial and Industrial Facilities course has been created to assist facilities in meeting the specific OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard's (29 CFR Part 1910.1030) training requirements.

Bloodborne diseases are a serious concern. Hepatitis B infects over 70,000 people annually studies report.  There are over 1 million people with the HIV virus, which commonly leads to AIDS. With the increasing number of people contracting these diseases, in 1991 OSHA passed a Bloodborne Pathogens regulation. The course covers contents of the standard, epidemiology and symptoms of bloodborne diseases, modes by which Bloodborne diseases are transmitted, recognizing exposure situations, the exposure control plan, practices to prevent exposure, HBV vaccine, emergency procedures, selection and use of personal protective equipment, signs and labels, and more.
