3. Blood Borne Pathogens Task Force Update: (Bob Marietta) • Universal precautions sheet below will be added to each policy and procedure manual and to each First Aid Kit. Universal Precautions: Howard Community College Universal precautions are intended to prevent exposure to human blood or other body fluids. The routes of transmission for occupational exposure are: 1) puncture of the skin with a contaminated sharp object, 2) contact with broken skin, and 3) splash to mucous membranes of the eye, nose, or mouth. At HCC our Security Guards and Life Guards are trained to provide first aid and our House Keeping Staff is trained to clean spills of bodily fluids. Universal precautions may include the following practices: • Wear gloves, masks and protective eyewear • Wear protective suits, gowns or aprons • Wash hands and other skin surfaces • Use care with sharp objects • Disinfect all contaminated surfaces • Use proper disposal containers o (red bags or labeled BIO HAZARD) • Use protective resuscitation masks for CPR • Do not eat, drink, apply cosmetics or lip balm, smoke, or cb:SB Page 2 of 6 5/7/2010
handle contact lenses where exposure may occur. 4. Hazard Communications Committee Update: (Bob Marietta) • A training booklet will be handed out by HUMRES to every employee that they may think will be working with hazardous chemicals. The booklet is in an easy to read format. There is a test at the back. It will be signed by the employee. This provides stop gap training until an employee takes the annual training course. • We are working on a one hour training session to provide a stop gap for all the courses required by OSHA. OSHA has 25-30 scenarios that require training and record keeping. Fortunately they all do not apply to us. 5. Incident Report: • One person reported having slipped on ice on 1/31/03. • We need a report on all incidents so security can investigate the conditions in those locations, and so we can determine if unsafe conditions exist. • Two kids fell through the ice in the pond. They went to Hickory Ridge where security called their parents. The pond was immediately roped off with caution tape. Signs have since been ordered and we are going to rope it off with orange rope in the winter. Bin Items: 1. Smoking Issue: • Warren believes that the noncompliance is due to signage issues. We don’t have signs with appropriate directions to the nearest smoking area. Security is going to enforce whatever the signage says. • The old policy which was the use of non-negatives has changed. We now can put signage that says “No Smoking”. • Signs were ordered 2 months ago but there seems to be a problem with the contractor. • The smoking area by HUMRES in the quad has been eliminated by placing a Zen-garden in that location. • There are 5 designated smoking areas. Corner of L-bldg. Plant Operations Dock Behind Book Store Other side of Smith Theatre Hickory Ridge • We should look at color coding this to define the space since signage alone has no boundaries. cb:SB Page 3 of 6 5/7/2010
