Does a small doctor's office have to keep track of needlestick or other exposures?
Some businesses are exempt from the recordkeeping requirements of 29 CFR 1904 (based on industry classification or number of employees). The bloodborne pathogen regulations require a sharps injury log at 29 CFR 1910.1030(h)(5). However, the requirement to establish and maintain a sharps injury log only applies to employers who are required to maintain a log of occupational injuries and illnesses under Part 1904. OSHA states that industries which are exempt from the recordkeeping requirements of Part 1904 are not required to keep a sharps injury log under §1910.1030, but are encouraged to do so.
