Answer to Question 1
ANSWER:

Employees in the healthcare setting are exposed to occupational hazards, including blood-borne pathogens, infectious agents, radiation, and chemical hazards. It reduces the spread of infectious disease and improves the quality of care for patients. Furthermore, meeting OSHA standards is federal law. Finally, meeting OSHA standards is required for many healthcare settings to be accredited by agencies such as the Joint Commission.
