In relation to blood testing as part of the process of becoming a registered bone marrow donor, employees must arrange for the absence from work to be on a day suitable to their manager and the absence must be as close as possible to the beginning or ending of the employees' ordinary working hours. The Australian Red Cross Blood Service guidelines include the following advice on Hazardous Occupations and First Time Donors: • There are various occupations/activities to which donors should not return for a specific period after donating because a delayed reaction may be hazardous. First time donors or donors with a previous history of fainting should be advised not to donate and perform a hazardous occupation / activity on the same day. • Drivers of heavy/public transport vehicles - recommended eight hours before returning to work. In relation to bone marrow donations, employees must provide their manager with as much notice as is possible of requested bone marrow donation. So far as is possible employees must make arrangements for a bone marrow donation so as to minimise the absence from work. Proof of attendance of the employees at either blood test or bone marrow donation and the duration of the blood test or the bone marrow donation must be provided to their manager.
