What are the regulations called that address the handling of contaminated items under OSHA?

The regulations that address the handling of contaminated items under OSHA are part of the Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, known as the BBP. This standard provides guidelines and requirements to protect workers from the health hazards associated with exposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials. This includes training, the use of personal protective equipment, and procedures for cleanup and disposal of contaminated items to prevent the spread of pathogens.

The other options refer to different sets of regulations or standards. For instance, the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) pertains to the communication of hazards related to chemicals, which does not directly address contaminated items as the BBP does. The Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) standard outlines the requirements for the use of protective gear but is not specific to the procedures surrounding contaminated materials. The Healthcare Personnel (HCP) standard is not a recognized OSHA regulation in the context of handling contaminated items. Thus, the Bloodborne Pathogens Standard is the most relevant regulation addressing this specific area.
