An exposure control plan is a organized strategy that workplaces use to protect employees from hazards, such as bloodborne pathogens or chemicals, that could cause illness or injury. It outlines procedures to minimize risk, like proper safety protocols, training, and the use of protective equipment. The plan also specifies how to handle exposure incidents, ensure compliance with regulations, and regularly review safety practices. Its goal is to create a safe work environment by proactively managing potential hazards and ensuring staff are prepared to respond appropriately.
