Manufacturing Industry –Risks in Medical Goods Manufacturing
Every day, people use medical products, from household products like thermometers and medicines to high-tech hospital equipment like x-ray machines. Whenever someone uses a medical product, it’s thanks to the work of your clients in the medical goods manufacturing industry.
But while they create products that can improve health and benefit others, workers in the medical goods manufacturing industry face their own unique injury and illness risks. In medical goods manufacturing, some common risks include:
- Exposure to chemical hazards
- Exposure to bloodborne pathogens
- Exposure to other harmful substances, including infectious materials or biological hazards
- Radiation exposure
- Repetitive motion injuries
- Slip-and-falls
- Fires and burns
In the medical goods manufacturing industry, accidents and injuries can have serious consequences, especially when it comes to exposure to chemicals, biological hazards, or other dangerous substances. For example, frequent exposure to latex could lead to skin irritation, while accidental exposure to blood could increase a worker’s risk of contracting HIV, hepatis, or other serious bloodborne disease.
