The course also includes information about common biological hazards, personal protective equipment, housekeeping and decontamination, working after hours and common first aid practices. This course is designed for all workers who, during the course of their regular work duties, may come in contact with biological hazards. The focus is on laboratory workers in research or other settings. This course was created in accordance with guidelines from the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) as well as applicable OSHA standards. |
