NAICS 621491: Health Care and Social Assistance / Health Care and Social Assistance
This sector comprises establishments providing health care and social assistance for individuals. It includes ambulatory health care services, hospitals, nursing facilities, and social assistance programs.
Common workplace hazards include needlestick and sharps injuries, exposure to bloodborne pathogens and infectious diseases, and ergonomic injuries from patient handling and lifting. Workers may also face risks from workplace violence, chemical exposure to cleaning and sterilization agents, and slip and fall hazards.
Healthcare employers must comply with OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens standard (29 CFR 1910.1030), which requires an exposure control plan, universal precautions, engineering and work practice controls, personal protective equipment, hepatitis B vaccination for exposed workers, post-exposure evaluation and follow-up, employee training, and recordkeeping. The Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act further requires use of safer needle devices and involvement of frontline workers in device selection.
