What do standard precautions require the employer and employees to assume?

  1. All tools are contaminated

  2. All disinfectants are safe

  3. All human blood and body fluids are potentially infectious

  4. All employees are vaccinated

The correct answer is: All human blood and body fluids are potentially infectious

The standard precautions require the employer and employees to have the assumption that all human blood and body fluids contain potential infectious materials. They do not require the assumption that all tools are contaminated, although appropriate cleaning and sanitizing procedures must be followed. It is also not required to assume that all disinfectants are safe, as proper safety precautions should be taken when using them. While it is recommended for employees to be vaccinated, it is not a requirement under standard precautions. The main focus of standard precautions is on preventing the transmission of infectious materials from one individual to another, rather than assuming the status of tools, disinfectants, or employee vaccination.
