The tasks must be designed in a way that reduces the hazards to a minimum. If this is not possible, other safety measures must also be provided. The employer must inform and instruct the employees sufficiently so that they can carry out the work without risks. Containers and other equipment containing biological substances must be clearly marked. Suitable personal protection equipment must be used. Workplaces with quantities of dangerous substances above a certain level must be notified to the authorities. A classified list of common substances (bacteria, viruses) is provided.
