For Child care centers
Bloodborne pathogens training for your child care staff
Buy a block of seats, invite people by email, and see who has finished on one page. About an hour per person, online, in English, Spanish or Amharic.
Who needs the training
- Teachers and aides designated to give first aid
- Staff who clean up blood from toys, mats and surfaces
- Directors and assistants in family child care homes with employees
Why
OSHA has said child care workers with occupational exposure to blood are covered by all sections of 29 CFR 1910.1030, including staff designated to give first aid. Coverage depends on whether exposure can reasonably be anticipated, not on job title.
Covered employees must be trained at hire and every 12 months under 1910.1030(g)(2), at no cost to them, and offered the hepatitis B vaccine.
How seats work
- Buy a block of seats. One seat is one person.
- Invite each person by email from your dashboard, or hand out the seat codes.
- The dashboard shows who has finished, who is in progress, and each certificate number and retrain date. Export it as CSV for your records.
- Anyone can check a certificate by number at /verify.
1 to 4 seats
5 to 9 seats
10 to 49 seats
50 or more
What stays with you
The course covers the training elements in 29 CFR 1910.1030(g)(2)(vii). Your written exposure control plan, training on your own site specifics, and access to a knowledgeable person for questions remain the employer's responsibility.
