Places of employment where workers are at risk for exposure to BBPs or OPIMs are required to maintain an Exposure Control Plan (ECP). The ECP must be updated at least one time every 12 months. TRUE
FALSE

TRUE

Explanation:

The "Exposure Control Plan" is a written plan that ensures the protection of employees in a workplace against Blood-Borne Pathogens (BBP) or Other Potentially Infectious Materials (OPIMS). BBP refers to those microorganisms in the blood that can causes diseases in humans while OPIMS refers to body fluids such as urine, sweat, saliva, semen, vaginal secretions, etc.

Employees working in the hospital or other healthcare-related industries are at high risk for being exposed to the BBP and OPIMS; therefore, it is important that proper training and planning to control such exposure should be updated at least once annually (one time in every 12 months) or whenever it is necessary.
