Depending on the facility, posting requirements may address minimum wage, overtime, equal employment opportunity, employee leave, occupational safety, and other employment protections.
The Health Care Industry Package helps healthcare organizations organize commonly used workplace notices and supplemental safety information. It is suitable for medical practices, hospitals, outpatient facilities, nursing homes, and healthcare businesses opening additional locations.
What's Included in the Health Care Industry Package?
State and Federal Combination Labor Law Poster
Choose the state where your healthcare facility operates to receive a combination poster containing generally required state and federal workplace notices. Specific notices vary by state and employer coverage. Additional healthcare-specific, local, or federal contractor notices may be required.
Health Care Industry Combo Poster
The Health Care Industry Combo Poster provides supplemental workplace information selected for healthcare environments. It complements the State and Federal Combination Labor Law Poster and supports employee awareness of additional workplace matters relevant to healthcare operations.
Fire Extinguisher Pointer
The Fire Extinguisher Pointer helps employees identify the location of fire extinguishing equipment. Clearly identifying fire safety equipment supports emergency preparedness in medical offices, healthcare facilities, and other workplaces.
First Aid Poster
The First Aid Poster provides general first aid information and serves as a visual reference for responding to common workplace injuries. It supports employee safety awareness and emergency preparedness but does not replace professional medical training or established emergency procedures.
OSHA Log 300 Packet
The OSHA Log 300 Packet provides materials associated with occupational injury and illness recordkeeping. Healthcare employers should determine whether OSHA recordkeeping requirements apply based on their workforce size, industry classification, and applicable exemptions.
Bloodborne Pathogen Poster
The Bloodborne Pathogen Poster provides workplace safety information about potential exposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials. It helps reinforce awareness of exposure prevention, personal protective equipment, and safe handling practices in healthcare environments.
HIPAA Poster
The HIPAA Poster provides general information about the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the importance of protecting sensitive patient health information. It supports employee awareness of privacy and confidentiality responsibilities within healthcare organizations.
Workplace Ergonomics Poster
The Workplace Ergonomics Poster provides information about safe body mechanics, proper posture, and reducing physical strain during workplace activities. Ergonomic awareness is particularly useful for healthcare employees involved in patient handling, repetitive tasks, prolonged standing, and workstation activities.

OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens and Healthcare Worker Safety
Healthcare workers may face occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens, including hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, establishes requirements for covered employers to reduce occupational exposure risks.
Applicable employer responsibilities may include maintaining an exposure control plan, providing appropriate personal protective equipment, implementing engineering and work practice controls, offering required training, and following exposure incident procedures.
The included Bloodborne Pathogen Poster serves as a supplemental educational resource. It does not replace an exposure control plan, employee training, vaccinations, or other applicable OSHA requirements.
HIPAA Privacy and Patient Information Awareness
Healthcare organizations subject to HIPAA must implement applicable safeguards to protect patient health information. Employees who handle protected health information should understand their organization's privacy policies, permitted disclosures, and procedures for safeguarding sensitive records.
The included HIPAA Poster helps reinforce general privacy awareness. It does not replace required HIPAA policies, workforce training, patient Notices of Privacy Practices, or other obligations applicable to covered entities and business associates.
Workplace Ergonomics and Injury Prevention in Healthcare
Healthcare employees may experience physical strain from patient transfers, lifting, repetitive movements, prolonged standing, and workstation activities. Appropriate ergonomic practices can help reduce musculoskeletal injury risks.
The Workplace Ergonomics Poster provides a visual reminder of general ergonomic principles. Healthcare employers should also evaluate job-specific hazards and implement appropriate safe patient handling procedures, equipment, and training.
