Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations for the physician's office
Abstract
Mandatory reporting and recordkeeping on job safety were established for all employers by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Act of 1970. Physician interest in OSHA regulations recently increased with the publication of the Bloodborne Pathogens Standard. This review examines general employer communication to employees about new standards as well as reporting requirements for physician offices, including special OSHA forms needed to comply with illness and injury reporting.
