NAICS 623110: Nursing Care Facilities (Skilled Nursing Facilities) / Health Care and Social Assistance
This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in providing inpatient nursing and rehabilitative services. These facilities have a permanent core staff of registered or licensed practical nurses who provide nursing care.
Common workplace hazards include musculoskeletal injuries from patient handling, lifting, and repositioning, workplace violence from residents with cognitive impairment, and exposure to bloodborne pathogens. Workers may also face risks from infectious disease transmission, chemical cleaning 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.
