and/or 10 to 20 pounds of force constantly to move objects. (Constantly: activity or condition exists 2/3

or more of the time) to move objects. Physical demand requirements are in excess of those for Sedentary

Work. Even though the weight lifted may be only a negligible amount, a job should be rated Light Work:

(1) when it requires walking or standing to a significant degree; or (2) when it requires sitting most of the

time but entails pushing and/or pulling of arm or leg controls; and/or (3) when the job requires working at

a production rate pace entailing the constant pushing and/or pulling of materials even though the weight

of those materials is negligible. NOTE: The constant stress and strain of maintaining a production rate

pace*** especially in an industrial setting, can be and is physically demanding of a worker even though the

amount of force exerted is negligible. Duties performed routinely require exposure to blood, body fluid and

tissue. The incumbent works in a patient care area; works in an area where patients enter; works directly

with patients; and/or works with specimens that could contain diseases. There may be an occupational

risk for exposure to all communicable diseases.

Because the incumbent works within a healthcare setting, there may be occupational risk for exposure to

hazardous medications or hazardous waste within the environment through receipt, transport, storage,

preparation, dispensing, administration, cleaning and/or disposal of contaminated waste. The risk level of

exposure may increase depending on the essential job duties of the role.
