JJ Keller Bloodborne Pathogen Training

Exposure to bloodborne pathogens can happen in the workplace. Bloodborne pathogens are microorganisms that live in a person’s blood. They can cause serious diseases like hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV, AIDS, malaria, and Ebola.

Employees with “occupational exposure” are likely to have contact with blood and certain other body fluids at work. Those with occupational exposure need to know what to do if they have an incident with blood or certain other body fluids.

The Bloodborne Pathogens Training program is designed to help learners understand how to protect themselves and lessen the risks of exposure.

Please note: This curriculum is designed to help employers satisfy the training requirements of 29 CFR 1910.1030. It includes vital information on the risks that bloodborne pathogens pose, methods employees can take to limit exposure, and what to do if they’ve had an exposure incident with blood.

Regulations Covered: 29 CFR 1910.1030 and the General Duty Clause: Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act
Intended Audience: Employees with job duties where contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials is reasonably anticipated.
Languages: English and Spanish.
