My interpretation of these two standards is that eye protection must be made available and instruction on proper use must be given to all the techs. But not that goggles/glasses must be worn at all times in a clinical laboratory regardless of the risk of splash/spatter/aerosol formation. Do your facilities require that techs wear eye protection at all times or only when performing tasks that have a high risk for exposure? Thanks! GEN.74100: Appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, gowns, masks and eye protectors, etc.) is provided and maintained in a sanitary and reliable condition in all technical work areas in which blood and body substances are handled and in circumstances during which exposure is likely to occur. GEN.74200: Personnel are instructed in the proper use of personal protective clothing/equipment (e.g. gloves, gowns, masks, eye protectors, footwear) and records are maintained.
