Fact Sheet No. OSHA 92-46 BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS FINAL STANDARD: SUMMARY OF KEY PROVISIONS PURPOSE: Limits occupational exposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials since any exposure could result in transmission of bloodborne pathogens which could lead to disease or death. SCOPE: Covers all employees who could be reasonably anticipated' as the result of performing their job duties to face contact with blood and other potentially infectious materials. OSHA has not attempted to list all occupations where exposures could occur. Good Samaritan' acts such as assisting a co-worker with a nosebleed would not be considered occupational exposure. Infectious materials include semen, vaginal secretions, cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, pleural fluid, pericardial fluid, peritoneal fluid, amniotic fluid, saliva in dental procedures, any body fluid visibly contaminated with blood and all body fluids in situations where it is difficult or impossible to differentiate between body fluids. They also include any unfixed tissue or organ other than intact skin from a human (living or dead) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -containing cell or tissue cultures, organ cultures and HIV or hepatitis B (HBV) -containing culture medium or other solutions as well as blood, organs or other tissues from experimental animals infected with HIV or HBV. EXPOSURE-CONTROL PLAN: Requires employers to identify, in writing, tasks and procedures as well as job classifications where occupational exposure to blood occurs-without regard to personal protective clothing and equipment. It must also set forth the schedule for implementing other provisions of the standard and specify the procedure for evaluating circumstances surrounding exposure incidents. The plan ...

This dust may contain a mixture of many substances including ground- up plant matter, fiber, bacteria, fungi, soil, pesticides, non-cotton matter, and other contaminants. Exposure to cotton dust can mean serious health problems. Methods to protect workers include dust measurement, dust controls, respiratory protection, medical examinations, and training programs. U.S. Department of Labor Program Highlights Fact Sheet No. OSHA 92-23 COTTON DUST Cotton dust is dust present in the air during the handling or processing of cotton. This dust may contain a mixture of many substances including ground-up plant matter, fiber, bacteria, fungi, soil, pesticides, non-cotton matter, and other contaminants. HEALTH EFFECTS Exposure to cotton dust can mean serious health problems. The first symptoms of disease are difficulty in breathing or perhaps a tightness across the chest, which is particularly noticeable on the first day back at work after a worker has been off for a few days. Workers also cough up phlegm or mucus. If exposure above the OSHA limit continues, workers may develop byssinosis, also known as brown lung' disease. While earlier breathing difficulties may be reversible, damage at the advanced stages of the disease is permanent and disabling. Workers who develop brown lung may have to retire early because they are so short ...
