Which piece of legislation requires employers to eliminate or minimize exposure to contaminated sharps? A. Bloodborne Pathogens
Alex

The law that requires employers to eliminate or minimize exposure to contaminated sharps is the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act.

Further Explanation

The Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act also known as “Needlestick Act” was a law signed on November 6, 2000 that seeks to further reduce the occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens from accidental sharps injuries in healthcare and other occupational settings. The congress thought that a development to OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogens Standard was necessary to establish in a more specific manner and in greater detail the requirement by OSHA for all employers which is that they need to identify, evaluate and implement safer medical devices. This Act also stipulated additional requirements in areas such as maintaining a sharps injury log and the involvement of non-managerial healthcare workers in evaluating and choosing devices.

Bloodborne Pathogens are microorganisms in human blood or other potentially infectious materials that can cause diseases such as Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and many others. Healthcare workers and other occupations that are exposed to blood are most at risk with these pathogens.  

Needlestick Act and Bloodborne Pathogens Standard

The Act directs OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) to modify its Bloodborne Pathogens Standard. On January 18, 2001 OSHA published the revised standard and on April 18, 2001 the revised standard took effect. On July 17, 2001 OSHA enforced the new provisions of the standard such as:

  • Requiring employers to maintain a sharps injury log
  • To involve non-managerial employees in selecting safer needle devices
