Late and non-reporting of injuries amongst phlebotomists in South Africa is a problem. With the high incidence of the infectious and eventually fatal diseases of HIV, Hepatitis B and C in South Africa, this problem had to be explored in order that all health care workers obtain timeous treatment (medicinally, socially & psychologically) in the future.
