Animal health professionals such as veterinarians, technicians and assistants face job-related hazards. Taking care of animals can put veterinary workers at risk of bites and kicks, causing scratches or other more serious injuries. In addition, veterinarians are also at risk of zoonotic diseases (e.g. rabies), radiation exposure, and dangerous chemicals. To reduce the risk of occupational injuries, it is important that veterinarians use the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
