Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to: a) Appropriate medical follow-up procedures were not implemented for health care workers in job categories, nursing service and laundry located throughout the facility, who were exposed to the hazards of being infected by HIV and/or HBV through direct contact with blood or other body fluids. Feasible and useful abatement methods for reducing the hazards among others are: Implementation of follow-up procedures after possible exposure to HIV and/or HBV. If a health care workers has a percutaneous (needlestick or cut) or mucose membrane (splash to eye, nasal mucosa, or mouth) exposure to body fluids or has a cutameous exposure to blood when the worker's skin is chapped, abraded, or otherwise nonintact, the source patient shall be informed of the incident and tested for HIV and HBV infections, after consent is obtained. If patient consent is refused or if the source patient tests positive, the health care worker shall be evaluated clinically and by HIV antibody testing as soon as possible and advised to report and seek medical evaluation of any acute febrile illness that occurs within 12 weeks after exposure. HIV seronegative workers shall be retested 6 weeks past exposure and on a periodic basis thereafter (12 weeks and 6 months after exposure). Follow up procedures shall be taken for health care workers exposed or potentially exposed to HBV. The type of procedures depends on the immunization status of the worker (i.e., whether HBV vaccination has been received and antibody response is adequate) and the HBV serologic status of the source patient. The CDC Immunization Practices Advisory committee has published its recommendatons regarding HBV post exposure prophylaxis in table format in the June 17, 1985, Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
