    An analysis of questionnaires used in the institutions of blood service has shown the absence of standards in maintenance of safety of the personnel storing up blood. Most frequent cases of contamination of the personnel with donors' blood was noted when venepunctions were being made, during filling the test-tubes from a tube, utilization of waste products, cutting the tubes and opening the test tubes. Introduction of a system of higher occupational safety of the personnel and successive action of using innovations, up-to-date configuration of hemocontainers with vacuum sampling of the first portion of blood for laboratory investigations and fixed closing the needle allows reduce occupational traumatism in blood service.
