true
false

Explanation:

Analyze the safety statement

Using the Bloodborne Pathogens and OSHA Standards knowledge points, we evaluate the statement: "If you are not properly trained to clean up blood or OPIM's you should immediately jump and help pick up broken glass and used needles."

Evaluate the risk of exposure

Using the Exposure Control Plan and Occupational Safety knowledge points, handling sharp objects like broken glass or used needles contaminated with blood or Other Potentially Infectious Materials (OPIM) without proper training and personal protective equipment (PPE) poses a severe risk of puncture wounds and transmission of bloodborne pathogens. Untrained personnel must avoid these hazards. Therefore, the statement is false.

Answer:

• True
• False (Correct answer)
