Uncontaminated used box cutter blades, uncontaminated knives, uncontaminated razor blades, uncontaminated broken glass, other uncontaminated sharps, or any other uncontaminated object that can penetrate the skin do not fall under the definition of regulated waste nor contaminated sharps. Handling uncontaminated sharps would not pose an “occupational exposure” as defined in 1910.1030(b). If no occupational exposure exists, then 1910.1030 does not need to be met.
OSHA does not have any disposal requirements for uncontaminated sharps.
