NAICS 621610: 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.
While OSHA does not have a specific standard for workplace violence, the agency uses the General Duty Clause (Section 5(a)(1) of the OSH Act) to cite healthcare employers for failing to protect workers from recognized violence hazards. Healthcare and social assistance workers experience workplace violence at rates significantly higher than other industries. OSHA has issued enforcement guidance and published recommended practices for workplace violence prevention programs in healthcare settings.
