OSHA Compliance

OSHA Compliance

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) establishes and enforces standards for creating a safe and healthy work environment, and the healthcare industry is no exception. Healthcare workers encounter a range of hazards day to day that may include exposure to bloodborne pathogens and hazardous chemicals or other safety hazards covered under the general industry standard such as trips or falls, ergonomic precautions, and workplace violence — to name some of the possibilities. 

Under the OSH Act of 1970, employers must implement policies and procedures to protect employees from injuries and illnesses while at work. This means healthcare organizations must provide employees with the appropriate personal protective equipment and offer adequate training on workplace safety. However, those are just a few of the requirements. Every workplace is different, so performing initial and annual assessments is a critical component to developing site-specific policies that protect their employees.

Do you feel overwhelmed navigating the web of laws, regulations, and requirements set forth by OSHA? DoctorsManagement is just what the doctor ordered for OSHA compliance and training headaches.
