In many cases, working with biohazard materials means working with chemical spills, blood, human or animal remains. A traumatic accident that caused an injury or death are circumstances that call for biohazard remediation. The actual biohazard cleanup consists of cleaning, applying EPA approved hospital grade disinfectants, and deodorizing areas where traumatic events have occurred.
It is useful to remember that the state officials are not required to clean up a crime scene. When police investigators are finished collecting evidence from the area, the duty of cleaning the property shifts to the property owner to employ biohazard cleaning services. Professional cleanup technicians can arrive onsite only after the police have gathered all evidence pertaining to the crime.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) posted a standard in 1991 to help guard all workers from the dangers of blood or other potentially infectious materials (BOPIM). Hepatitis B virus, HIV, the 2019 Novel coronavirus (COVID-19), and many others are examples of Infectious pathogens.
An estimated 5.6 million workers in the medical field and related occupations are helped by this standard. The biohazard restoration and cleaning Industry is also covered under the BOPIM standard.
The BOPIM standard also has a few requirements, as follows:
Common Biohazard Scenarios
Each and every time that PuroClean technicians handle materials that are potentially hazardous, they are taking a chance of serious risk to their safety. This is the reason that following correct safety methods and exact training procedures are imperative. Following these procedures is not only important to the technician’s safety, but for the safety of tenants who will later reside and occupy the affected space once the biohazard cleanup and remediation is finished.
It is not obligatory to obtain a certification to become a biohazard technician. Although OSHA does require biohazard technicians to correctly wear PPE when handling bloodborne pathogens. Additionally, you may want to check your local city, state, and federal regulators for certain licensing requirements, laws, background checks, fingerprinting, or any other factors that may be needed to perform remediation work. For example, the state of Georgia passed a law that involves companies providing remediation services related to trauma and crime scene cleanup.
Personal Protective Equipment or PPE is the final line of defense that helps keep workers safe. PPE guards against any hazardous materials from reaching the workers, through skin, eyes, nose, mouth, or any other exposure. The type of PPE can differ depending on the project, however, it should always include properly designated waterproof coveralls, nitrile gloves which are also cut resistant, full-face guard, and a respirator.
Reputable and trustworthy remediation businesses train their workers to work in the biohazard restoration industry. This training includes teaching OSHA’s directions for handling biohazardous materials. This training protects all parties involved: technicians, bystanders, and future occupants. Furthermore, the chance of accidents and potential lawsuits is limited greatly.

Cleaning and application of hospital grade cleaners of frequently touched objects and surfaces are the much needed actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory illnesses, like coronavirus. Since any location can be re-contaminated after cleaning, and since the coronavirus is also spread person-to-person, PuroClean’s cleaning services can’t be guaranteed to prevent the spread of coronavirus. Visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html) for more information regarding coronavirus, its spread, and prevention.
