Understanding OSHA and HLO PPE Requirements
Oregon beauty shops must navigate a dual layer of oversight involving the Oregon Health Licensing Office and federal OSHA standards. Under the Oregon Salon PPE Rules, personal protective equipment must be provided by the employer and used by the employee whenever there is a reasonable anticipation of contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM). This includes the mandatory use of single-use disposable gloves during services like extractions, chemical peels, or any procedure where the skin may be breached. Additionally, protective eyewear and gowns are required if splashing or spraying of fluids is likely. Maintaining these standards ensures a sterile environment and reduces the risk of cross-contamination throughout the salon.
