The job of a biohazard cleaner is to completely clean, sanitize, and deodorize the site where a violent crime, suicide, or traumatic accident has occurred. Biohazard cleanup can be challenging work that requires technicians to handle potentially hazardous materials such as blood and body fluids, and proper handling of the crime or trauma scene is crucial to the safety of everyone involved.



BIOHAZARD CLEANUP CERTIFICATION FAQ

Are you interested in pursuing a career in biohazard cleaning? If so, you likely have questions about the process.

What certifications are required for biohazard cleanup? Although there is no certification required to become a biohazard cleaner, OSHA requires any employee that has the potential of being exposed to bloodborne pathogens to complete training in bloodborne pathogens personal protective equipment (PPE). This includes individuals working in a wide range of industries, including law enforcement, health care, and bioremediation.

Many biohazard cleanup companies are happy to offer on-the-job training in bioremediation best practices and safety compliance for all employees. According to The Houston Chronicle, “Learning OSHA’s on-the-job safety methods when handling biohazardous waste and working in hazardous areas is strongly advised because it reduces the risk of accidents, potential lawsuits, and can lower a business’ insurance costs.”

What To Do When You Have A Biohazard Emergency

The need for biohazard or hazmat cleaning usually comes with little or no warning. And it can be truly overwhelming.

Dealing with hazardous materials is best left to experienced, certified professionals. But if you find yourself in such a traumatic incident, here are a few important things to remember.

Call Emergency Personnel

Emergency services should be called in a life-threatening situation.

2.svg

Do Not Attempt Any Cleaning Yourself

Cleaning of any kind could interfere with a possible investigation and expose you to harmful contaminated materials.

3.svg

Stay Out Of The Area

Stay out of any affected areas. There may be potentially dangerous hazardous materials left behind.

4.svg

Treat All Bodily Fluids As Contaminated

Do not touch or handle items that might be contaminated with extremely harmful bodily fluids. And always treat bodily fluids as if they’re contaminated.

I appreciate notification when the guys were delayed coming over. Providing estimates of the duration of the projects would have been helpful. Appreciate coordination of repair of damage caused by equipment.

They were fast and thorough and did what they said they would do. Very knowledgeable of water caused problems and cleanup. I recommend customers take a picture of their electric meter before and after to see if insurance will reimburse for electricity used. SERVPRO Albuquerque Restoration had so many machines drying out my house that the main house circuit breaker tripped a couple of times.
