Federal Bloodborne Pathogens Poster

Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms found in human blood and other bodily fluids, and contact with them puts workers at risk of diseases such as HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. This federal bloodborne pathogens poster explains what bloodborne pathogens are, lists common transmission routes, and outlines the procedures to follow in case of exposure, so employees know how to prevent infection and what to do if exposure happens. The best protection starts with awareness: understanding the risks, using protective equipment and work practices that prevent contact, and treating every exposure as an event that requires prompt reporting and medical follow-up. The poster belongs in healthcare facilities, first responder stations, laboratories, custodial areas, and any workplace where employees may contact blood or bodily fluids. POSTER INFO: Laminated on both sides and printed in high quality full color. Size: 24 x 39 inches.
