Cartridges, blades and pigments
Artists should know how to open and dispose of single-use sharps safely, prevent contaminated gloves from touching bottles and controls, and avoid returning used pigment or products to clean stock.
Treatment-area control
Training should cover clean setup, protective barriers, correct glove changes, surface disinfection and the safe handling of items used close to the eyes, lips and other sensitive areas.
Client and worker protection
A good BBP system combines informed studio procedures, vaccination discussions with an appropriate healthcare professional, exposure reporting and records that show how risks are managed.
Authoritative safety references
Course learning should be checked against current official guidance and the rules that apply where you work.
- World Health Organization: standard precautions
- CDC/NIOSH: bloodborne infectious disease risk factors
