There is an ongoing risk of <jats:italic>Aedes<\/jats:italic> mosquito\u2010borne transmission in more than 90 countries and territories worldwide. In these areas, as well as in places that are not experiencing active outbreaks, workers in a variety of jobs may be exposed to the virus. In addition to outdoor workers in places with ongoing, vector\u2010borne transmission who may be exposed when bitten by Zika\u2010infected mosquitoes, biomedical researchers studying the virus and health care workers and staff in clinical laboratories may encounter blood and infectious body fluids from infected individuals, including travelers from Zika virus\u2010affected areas. Because of potentially serious health outcomes, including reproductive effects, sometimes associated with Zika, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health previously issued guidance to help US employers protect workers from exposure to the virus on the job. This commentary summarizes the details of these recommendations and explains their rationale, which is important to understand when adapting and implementing workplace controls to prevent occupational Zika virus exposures and infections at individual worksites. The industrial hygiene hierarchy of controls, including elimination and substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls, and safe work practices, and personal protective equipment, serves as a framework for infection prevention practices for at\u2010risk workers discussed here.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ajim.22978","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,26]],"date-time":"2019-04-26T08:16:57Z","timestamp":1556266617000},"page":"455-459","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Zika virus in workers: Considerations for ongoing exposure prevention"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"62","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7836-5964","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christopher K.","family":"Brown","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"United States Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration Office of Emergency Management and Preparedness Washington DC"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jill M.","family":"Shugart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"United States Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Emergency Preparedness and Response Office Atlanta Georgia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra1602113"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15585\/mmwr.mm6731e2"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1535676018818562"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0035-9203(64)90201-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01556147"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2016.19006"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15585\/mmwr.mm6608a4"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15585\/mmwr.mm6613e1"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.15585\/mmwr.mm6534e1"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_1_11_1","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
