Occupational Safety and Health Administration is an agency that mostly deals with employee safety issues. However, since the late 1980’s they have increased their regulatory powers for the health care profession.
Their main concern in the health care field is asepsis and prevention of infections for health care workers. More recently they are making an attempt to improve the work environment for ergonomic issues. They require very specific documentation and / or training.
In our office, we have to have initial training for all staff as well as continue certification training at least once per year.
