Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1030(g)(2)(v): Employers shall provide additional training when changes such as modification of tasks or procedures or institution of new tasks or procedures affect the employee's occupational exposure. The additional training may be limited to addressing the new exposures created. At the work site, the employer did not provide additional training on blood borne pathogens when a resident (#6) requiring finger sticks and medication injections was admitted to the nursing home. Employees assisted the diabetic resident with her twice daily fingerstick monitoring and twice daily insulin injections, providing set up, assistance and disposal of the used sharps.
