Animal Contact

This program covers those that have occupational exposure to animals or unfixed animal tissue. This includes employees caring for animals and cleaning animal environments (e.g., cages or stalls). The type of monitoring and training needed is based on the type of animal(s) and the type of contact.
Examples of employees in the above category include veterinarians, veterinary technicians, animal farm workers, animal caretakers or lab workers that handle animal tissues.
Required monitoring/training: Completion of initial animal questionnaire.
- Review of the questionnaire will determine additional requirements and follow up.
