sample slide Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death due to an infectious agent in the world. Since 1985, the incidence of TB in the general U.S. population has increased 14 percent, reversing a 30-year downward trend. Outbreaks have occurred in hospitals, correctional institutions, homeless shelters, nursing homes, and residential care facilities for AIDS patients. Specific control measures recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and required by OSHA has contributed to a drop in TB cases in 1994 and 1995.

In February 1996, OSHA issued CPL 2.106, Enforcement Procedures and Scheduling for Occupational Exposure to Tuberculosis to protect workers against the hazards of TB.

This presentation will provide an overview of CPL 2.106 - Enforcement Procedures and Scheduling for Occupational Exposure to Tuberculosis.
