Not Wearing Lab Coats during Photo Ops

Online, March 26, 2010 (Newswire.com) - WASHINGTON D.C. - it is normal for doctors to be seen wearing their lab coats but with the recent order from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration you may not see physicians wearing their lab coats outside their workplace. The order is further made concrete when United States President Barack Obama prohibits physicians from wearing their lab coats during photo ops.

Lab coats are those white cloaks often used by doctors aside from the coat and ties that they wear. This is so this as it is observed that such attire is very much exposed to viruses and other contaminants that it can carry. However, physicians are allowed to use their lab coats only within the hospitals or clinics where viruses and contaminants will not be spread out to other places.

The order came after the agency has observed that the very symbol of the medical profession is worn in any occasion thus causing much disrespect to the suit and more to the profession itself. The ban on the wearing of such attire is also made due to the fact that potentially infectious materials which may clog into the medical suit may be spread through medical lab coats and scrubs.

The ruling is made concrete after the agency has issued the OSHA standard 1910.1030 (e)(2)(ii)(F) banning the wearing of such medical attire to be worn outside any medical facilities. Other information on the prohibition on the use of such attire is stated in the standards which is available at http://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_table=STANDARDS&p_id=10051;.
