The Arizona Work Exposure Poster from Labor Law Compliance Center provides required employee notices concerning significant workplace exposure to bodily fluids and certain infectious diseases under the Arizona Workers' Compensation Act.
Arizona requires employers to display notices addressing work exposure to bodily fluids and work exposure to MRSA, spinal meningitis, and tuberculosis. These notices explain employee reporting responsibilities and important workers' compensation information following a possible significant workplace exposure.

Employees should promptly report a possible significant workplace exposure to their employer and follow applicable Arizona reporting and medical evaluation requirements. Different reporting and diagnosis timeframes may apply depending on the type of exposure.
