Help! Need a "stuck with dirty needle protocol" for OSHA manual at school

Published

Someone please help me out here. I tried searching the OSHA website, but just can't find anything. All kinds of stuff about the recordkeeping, but I need the actual protocol for what you do after you found you've been stuck. Only have a few more days to figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :confused:

You got lucky as I am safety committee at work and did this review two years ago, so had saved links!

Thanks again. I'm usually very good at finding these kinds of things on the internet, but for some reason, just couldn't find anything.
