The OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard was developed primarily to protect which of the following groups of people?

Answer

The correct answer is 'Anyone who works in an environment where they may be exposed to bloodborne pathogens'. Although hospital workers are a major part of this group, the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard applies broadly to all employees with occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials, including laboratories, emergency response, funeral homes, and other non-hospital settings.
