Free Printable Poster Demonstrates Use of Disinfectants in Corrections

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has released a free printable poster, “Safe and Proper Use of Disinfectants to Reduce Viral Surface Contamination in Correctional Facilities.”

Workers in correctional facilities, as well as incarcerated persons who are assigned to work details, may be exposed to viral pathogens if communal, high-touch surfaces are not properly cleaned and disinfected. The poster recommends steps in plain language to reduce viral surface contamination through safe and proper use of disinfectants.

Download it from the NIOSH / CDC website.
